Crate glug

Logger with graphical elements. For use with log crate. The logger writes to stderr with ANSI escape codes to display logs and aggregate data. Could be useful if a program or library logs en masse.

How to use

The glug logger uses a dedicated writer thread. This thread runs until told to stop. To stop the logger properly, it is a good idea to use GLogger::end and JoinHandle::join like so: (yes, this example is everywhere in this doc)

fn main() {
    let (writer, logger) = glug::GLogger::setup();
    log::info!("logged a message");
    logger.end();
    writer.join().unwrap();
}
