flexi_logger 0.31.2

An easy-to-configure and flexible logger that writes logs to stderr or stdout and/or to files. It allows custom logline formats, and it allows changing the log specification at runtime. It also allows defining additional log streams, e.g. for alert or security messages.

/// Is used in [`Logger::write_mode`](struct.Logger.html#method.write_mode).
///
/// Buffering reduces the program's I/O overhead, and thus increases overall performance,
/// which can become relevant if logging is used heavily.
/// On the other hand, if logging is used with low frequency,
/// buffering can defer the appearance of log lines significantly,
/// so regular flushing is usually advisable with buffering.
///
/// **Note** that for all options except `Direct` you should keep the
/// [`LoggerHandle`](struct.LoggerHandle.html) alive
/// up to the very end of your program to ensure that all buffered log lines are flushed out
/// (which happens automatically when the [`LoggerHandle`](struct.LoggerHandle.html) is dropped)
/// before the program terminates.
/// [See here for an example](code_examples/index.html#choose-the-write-mode).
///
/// **Note** further that flushing uses an extra thread (with minimal stack).
///
/// The console is a slow output device (at least on Windows).
/// With `WriteMode::Async` it can happen that in phases with vast log output
/// the log lines appear significantly later than they were written.
/// Also, a final printing phase is possible at the end of the program when the logger handle
/// is dropped (and all output is flushed automatically).
///
/// `WriteMode::Direct` (i.e. without buffering) is the slowest option with all output devices,
/// showing that buffered I/O pays off.
///
/// Using `log_to_stdout()` and then redirecting the output to a file can make things faster,
/// likely because the operating system's adds buffering,
/// but is still significantly slower than writing to files directly.
