Usage

Appender "Console" (Default)

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <diurna.h>

int main(void) {
    // Initialize Diurna with min log level "DEBUG" and default appender
    int ret = diurna_initialize("test_diurna", DIURNA_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG);
    if (ret != DIURNA_SUCCESS) {
        return (EXIT_FAILURE);
    }

    // Add a new message with level "INFORMATION"
    diurna_info("libdiurna version %s (%d)", diurna_version_as_str(), diurna_version_as_int());

    // Flush latest log message and destroy Diurna context
    diurna_destroy();
    
    return (EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

Appender "File"

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <diurna.h>

int main(void) {
    // Initialize Diurna with min log level "INFO" and "File" appender
    struct s_diurna_appender *appender_file = diurna_appender_file_create("/tmp/test.log");
    int ret = diurna_initialize_ex("test_diurna", DIURNA_LOGLEVEL_INFO, appender_file);
    if (ret != DIURNA_SUCCESS) {
        return (EXIT_FAILURE);
    }

    // Add a new message with level "INFORMATION"
    diurna_info("libdiurna version %s (%d)", diurna_version_as_str(), diurna_version_as_int());

    // Flush latest log messages and destroy Diurna context
    diurna_destroy();
    
    return (EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

Multiple appender

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <diurna.h>

int main(void) {
    // Initialize Diurna with min log level "DEBUG" and default appender
    int ret = diurna_initialize("test_diurna", DIURNA_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG);
    if (ret != DIURNA_SUCCESS) {
        return (EXIT_FAILURE);
    }
    
    // Register "FILE" appender
    struct s_diurna_appender *appender_file = diurna_appender_file_create("/tmp/test.log");
    ret = diurna_cfg_appender_register(appender_file);
    if (ret != DIURNA_SUCCESS) {
        diurna_error("Can't register 'FILE' appender");
    }

    // Add a new message with level "INFORMATION"
    diurna_info("libdiurna version %s (%d)", diurna_version_as_str(), diurna_version_as_int());

    // Flush latest log message and destroy Diurna context
    diurna_destroy();
    
    return (EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

Built-in appender

APPENDER	USAGE	INFORMATION
Console	diurna_appender_console_create(void)
File	diurna_appender_file_create(const char* filename)	The filename can contains following variables: {appname} and {date}
Syslog	diurna_appender_syslog_create(void)

Create your own appender

Creating a new appender is very simple, you need to initialize an instance of struct s_diurna_appender in which you have defined, at least, the function f_appender_write.

Feel free to consult the source code of the built-in appender on ./src/appender/.
