    colors = getOption("lgr.colors", list())),
  filters = NULL,
  connection = NULL
)

Arguments

AppenderConsole$append(event)


Method set_connection()

Usage

AppenderConsole$set_connection(connection)

Arguments

Examples

# create a new logger with propagate = FALSE to prevent routing to the root
# logger. Please look at the section "Logger Hirarchies" in the package
# vignette for more info.
lg  <- get_logger("test")$set_propagate(FALSE)

lg$add_appender(AppenderConsole$new())
lg$add_appender(AppenderConsole$new(
  layout = LayoutFormat$new("[%t] %c(): [%n] %m", colors = getOption("lgr.colors"))))

# Will output the message twice because we attached two console appenders
lg$warn("A test message")
#> WARN  [20:04:21.465] A test message
#> [2023-03-04 20:04:21.465] eval(): [300] A test message
lg$config(NULL) # reset config
#> <Logger> [info] test
