# MoosicBox Logging
Basic logging utilities with feature-gated modules for MoosicBox applications.
## Overview
The MoosicBox Logging package provides:
- **Feature-Gated Modules**: Optional logging implementations
- **Free Log Integration**: Optional free_log module (requires `free_log` feature)
- **Logging Macros**: Optional logging macro utilities (requires `macros` feature)
- **Minimal Core**: Lightweight base with optional extensions
## Current Implementation
### Core Components
- **Feature-Gated Architecture**: Modular logging components behind feature flags
- **Free Log Module**: Integration with free_log system (optional)
- **Macro Module**: Logging macro utilities (optional)
### Available Features
- **`free_log`**: Enables free_log integration module
- **`macros`**: Enables logging macro utilities
## Installation
### Cargo Dependencies
```toml
[dependencies]
moosicbox_logging = { path = "../logging" }
# Enable specific features
moosicbox_logging = {
path = "../logging",
features = ["free_log", "macros"]
}
```
## Usage
### With Free Log Feature
```rust
#[cfg(feature = "free_log")]
use moosicbox_logging::*; // Free log functionality
#[cfg(feature = "free_log")]
async fn setup_logging() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
// Use free_log integration
// (implementation details depend on the free_log module)
Ok(())
}
```
### With Macros Feature
```rust
#[cfg(feature = "macros")]
use moosicbox_logging::*; // Logging macros
#[cfg(feature = "macros")]
fn use_logging_macros() {
// Use logging macro utilities
// (implementation details depend on the macros module)
}
```
### Basic Usage
```rust
// Basic usage without features
// (minimal functionality available)
#[cfg(all(feature = "free_log", feature = "macros"))]
async fn full_logging_setup() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
// Both free_log and macros available
// Use complete logging functionality
Ok(())
}
```
## Implementation Notes
- The package provides minimal core functionality without features
- Logging capabilities are contained within feature-gated modules
- Free log integration requires the `free_log` feature
- Logging macros require the `macros` feature
- Features can be used independently or together
## Features
- **Default**: Minimal core (no logging functionality)
- **`free_log`**: Enables free_log integration module
- **`macros`**: Enables logging macro utilities
## Development Status
This package currently provides:
1. **Modular Architecture**: Feature-gated logging components
2. **Free Log Integration**: Optional integration with free_log system
3. **Macro Support**: Optional logging macro utilities
4. **Minimal Overhead**: Include only needed logging features
The actual logging implementations are contained within the feature-gated modules. Enable the appropriate features to access logging functionality.
## Usage Patterns
```rust
// Feature-gated imports
#[cfg(feature = "free_log")]
use moosicbox_logging::*; // Free log functions
#[cfg(feature = "macros")]
use moosicbox_logging::*; // Logging macros
// Conditional compilation based on features
#[cfg(feature = "free_log")]
fn setup_free_log() {
// Free log setup
}
#[cfg(feature = "macros")]
fn use_macros() {
// Use logging macros
}
```
This design allows consumers to include only the logging components they need, keeping the package lightweight while providing extensible logging capabilities.
