Layout:...ltiline(3)

💖 NAME 💖

hey bestie, welcome to the Layout:...ltiline(3) manual page ✨ it comes from the User Contributed Perl Documentation crew, and the actual star of the show is Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout::Multiline — yes, that whole long name, say it with your chest 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so first you load it, then you build it with a pattern, like this:

use Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout::Multiline;

my $layout = Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout::Multiline->new(
    "%d (%F:%L)> %m");

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout::Multiline is a subclass of Log4perl's PatternLayout, and it is lowkey so helpful if you send multiline messages to your appenders that show up like this:

2007/04/04 23:59:01 This is
a message with
multiple lines

and you want them to show up like this instead:

2007/04/04 23:59:01 This is
2007/04/04 23:59:01 a message with
2007/04/04 23:59:01 multiple lines

the way this layout class works is that it simply splits up the incoming message into several chunks split by line breaks and renders them with PatternLayout just as if it had arrived in separate chunks in the first place. periodt 💅
