# rolling-file-opt
NOTE: this repo is based on https://github.com/Axcient/rolling-file-rs
A rolling file appender with customizable rolling conditions.
Includes built-in support for rolling conditions on date/time
(daily, hourly, every minute) and/or size.
Log files structures(with `log` as folder and `log.log` as prefix):
- log.log `(a symbol link always points to the latest one log file)`
- log.log.yyyymmdd.hhmmss `(e.g. log.log.20240520.010101)`
- ..
This is useful to combine with the [tracing](https://crates.io/crates/tracing) crate and
[tracing_appender::non_blocking::NonBlocking](https://docs.rs/tracing-appender/latest/tracing_appender/non_blocking/index.html) -- use it
as an alternative to [tracing_appender::rolling::RollingFileAppender](https://docs.rs/tracing-appender/latest/tracing_appender/rolling/struct.RollingFileAppender.html).
## Examples
```rust
use rolling_file::*;
let file_appender = BasicRollingFileAppender::new(
"./log", // folder
"log.log", // prefix
RollingConditionBasic::new().daily(),
9
).unwrap();
```
## Development
Must pass latest stable clippy, be formatted with nightly rustfmt, and pass unit tests:
```
cargo +nightly fmt
cargo clippy --all-targets
cargo test
```
