brk_logger

Colorized, timestamped logging with optional file output and hooks.

What It Enables

Drop-in logging initialization that silences noisy dependencies (bitcoin, fjall, rolldown, ...) while keeping your logs readable with color-coded levels and local timestamps.

Key Features

• Dual output: Console (colorized) + optional file logging with daily rotation
• Per-level files: One combined log plus one file per tracing level (error/warn/info/debug/trace)
• Per-level rate limit: 100 writes/sec per level so a chatty level can't starve the others; combined file mirrors what the per-level files accept
• Auto-cleanup: *.txt files older than 7 days are pruned on startup
• Log hooks: Register callbacks to intercept log messages programmatically
• Sensible defaults: Pre-configured filters silence common verbose libraries
• Timestamp formatting: Uses system timezone via jiff

Environment Variables

• LOG - Set log level (default: info in release, debug in dev). Example: LOG=debug brk
• RUST_LOG - Full control over filtering (overrides all defaults)

Core API

brk_logger::init(Some(Path::new("logs")))?;  // Console + files in logs/
brk_logger::init(None)?;                      // Console only

brk_logger::register_hook(|msg| {
    // React to log messages
})?;

Usage

use tracing::info;

fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
    brk_logger::init(None)?;
    info!("Ready");
    Ok(())
}
