Logging

A logging class that can be told where to log to via transports.

Features include:

  • Asynchronous, ordered output to transports
  • Optionally keeps a history of logs
  • All log messages can be tagged
  • LogLevels are provided as well
  • Force logging enables output via print even if no transports available

## Filtering

Two methods exist to allow for filtering of the log stream.

  • The logger class is used within the library to output logs of what is going on. Multi-threading and task management is very complicated and having logs can help immensely when it comes to debugging purposes

    Everytime the log function is called, a number of tags are automatically produced that are attached to the message. These are:

    • the function name that the log is called from
    • The thread that the log is called from (UI or BG - for background)
    • The filename
    • The log level (see LogLevel)

    This class is also made public so the API is meant to be stable

    There’re also a number of predefined tags that the logs from within the library use. See LogTags for a list.
