Munin::...::Logger(3)

✨ NAME ✨

Munin::Master::Logger — the Munin master's old logging routines 🫶 (yes, this is Munin::...::Logger(3), the User Contributed Perl Documentation page, hi bestie 💖)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

Okay so real talk: this module is holding the Munin master's old logging routines while the whole thing is mid-glow-up to Log::Log4perl. It's giving "keeping the old fit in the back of the closet just in case" 💅. It also sets up Log4perl according to our needs, so it's doing double duty, main character energy fr fr.

⚠️ Do not use logger when writing new code, bestie. Use the Log::Log4perl :easy API instead. Pretty please. 🙏 This module takes care of initializing Log::Log4perl at load time, so it's already doing its thing whether you asked or not ✨.

🦋 SUBROUTINES 🦋

• logger_open — needs to be called once in the main program, with one argument: the directory where the munin logs go 📁. The running program's name ($0) gets used as the log name (so like, munin-graph.log, iykyk). One call, one dir, that's the vibe.
• logger — Do not use. 💀 That's it. That's the whole description. No cap.
• logger_level — use this to set the program's log level to debug, info, warn, error, or fatal 🌈. These correspond to the log levels used in syslog, but syslog is not used for logging. Not the vibe, not the setup, just the level names. 🎀
• logger_debug — sets up DEBUG logging 🔥. Both STDOUT and the log file will receive DEBUG level output, so you get the tea in two places at once 🍓.

👑 AUTHOR 👑

Munin master logging was ported to Log4perl by Nicolai Langfeldt 💜, and then split out into this module by Kjell Magne Øierud ✨. Two icons, one module, we love to see it 🫶.
