TransitionalLogger

A singleton logger accessible from ALL objects. It is intended to be used to:

• send logger data to stdout OR
• log to a file while consuming stdout & stderr data as log input OR
• destroy stdout, stderr, & log data OR
• do one of the above until transitioned to another of the above

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'transitional_logger'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install transitional_logger

Usage

The logger can be altered just like a normal Logger:

logger.level = Logger::WARN

Example usage:

TransitionalLogger.stdout
logger.info 'this message goes through the logger to stdout'
puts 'this works like usual'

TransitionalLogger.file('/tmp/whatever.log')
Object.new.logger.info 'this message goes through the logger to the file above'
puts 'this message also goes through the logger above'

TransitionalLogger.blackhole
Object.new.logger.error 'this message disappears'
puts 'this message disappears too!'
