fancy-log 0.1.1

# Fancy Log

A simple and customizable logging library for Rust, providing colored console output with timestamped log messages and configurable log levels.

## Features

- **Log Levels**: Supports `Error`, `Warn`, `Info`, and `Debug` log levels.
- **Colored Output**: Logs are displayed in different colors based on the log level (e.g., red for errors, yellow for warnings).
- **Timestamps**: Each log message includes a timestamp in `HH:MM:SS` format.
- **Thread-Safe**: Uses a global, thread-safe log level configuration.
- **Customizable**: Easily set the minimum log level to filter messages.

## Installation

Add the following to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
fancy-log = "0.1.0"
```

## Usage

### Basic Example

```rust
use fancy_log::{log, set_log_level, LogLevel};

fn main() {
    // Set the minimum log level to Info
    set_log_level(LogLevel::Info);

    // Log messages
    log(LogLevel::Info, "This is an info message");
    log(LogLevel::Warn, "This is a warning message");
    log(LogLevel::Error, "This is an error message");
    log(LogLevel::Debug, "This debug message will not be shown");
}
```

### Setting Log Level

You can configure the log level to filter out messages below a certain threshold:

```rust
use fancy_log::{set_log_level, LogLevel};

// Set log level to Debug to show all messages
set_log_level(LogLevel::Debug);
```

### Log Output

- **Error**: Printed to `stderr` in red.
- **Warn**: Printed to `stderr` in yellow.
- **Info**: Printed to `stdout` in white.
- **Debug**: Printed to `stdout` in blue.

Example output:
```
12:34:56 This is an info message
12:34:56 This is a warning message
12:34:56 This is an error message
```
