## This module implements a simple logger.
##
## It has been designed to be as simple as possible to avoid bloat.
## If this library does not fulfill your needs, write your own.
##
## Basic usage
## ===========
##
## To get started, first create a logger:
##
##   ```Nim
##   import std/logging
##
##   var logger = newConsoleLogger()
##   ```
##
## The logger that was created above logs to the console, but this module
## also provides loggers that log to files, such as the
## `FileLogger<#FileLogger>`_. Creating custom loggers is also possible by
## inheriting from the `Logger<#Logger>`_ type.
##
## Once a logger has been created, call its `log proc
## <#log.e,ConsoleLogger,Level,varargs[string,]>`_ to log a message:
##
##   ```Nim
##   logger.log(lvlInfo, "a log message")
##   # Output: INFO a log message
##   ```
##
## The ``INFO`` within the output is the result of a format string being
## prepended to the message, and it will differ depending on the message's
## level. Format strings are `explained in more detail
## here<#basic-usage-format-strings>`_.
##
## There are six logging levels: debug, info, notice, warn, error, and fatal.
## They are described in more detail within the `Level enum's documentation
## <#Level>`_. A message is logged if its level is at or above both the logger's
## ``levelThreshold`` field and the global log filter. The latter can be changed
## with the `setLogFilter proc<#setLogFilter,Level>`_.
##
## .. warning::
##   For loggers that log to a console or to files, only error and fatal
##   messages will cause their output buffers to be flushed immediately by default.
##   set ``flushThreshold`` when creating the logger to change this.
##
## Handlers
## --------
##
## When using multiple loggers, calling the log proc for each logger can
## become repetitive. Instead of doing that, register each logger that will be
## used with the `addHandler proc<#addHandler,Logger>`_, which is demonstrated
## in the following example:
##
##   ```Nim
##   import std/logging
##
##   var consoleLog = newConsoleLogger()
##   var fileLog = newFileLogger("errors.log", levelThreshold=lvlError)
##   var rollingLog = newRollingFileLogger("rolling.log")
##
##   addHandler(consoleLog)
##   addHandler(fileLog)
##   addHandler(rollingLog)
##   ```
##
## After doing this, use either the `log template
## <#log.t,Level,varargs[string,]>`_ or one of the level-specific templates,
## such as the `error template<#error.t,varargs[string,]>`_, to log messages
## to all registered handlers at once.
##
##   ```Nim
##   # This example uses the loggers created above
##   log(lvlError, "an error occurred")
##   error("an error occurred")  # Equivalent to the above line
##   info("something normal happened")  # Will not be written to errors.log
##   ```
##
## Note that a message's level is still checked against each handler's
## ``levelThreshold`` and the global log filter.
##
## Format strings
## --------------
##
## Log messages are prefixed with format strings. These strings contain
## placeholders for variables, such as ``$time``, that are replaced with their
## corresponding values, such as the current time, before they are prepended to
## a log message. Characters that are not part of variables are unaffected.
##
## The format string used by a logger can be specified by providing the `fmtStr`
## argument when creating the logger or by setting its `fmtStr` field afterward.
## If not specified, the `default format string<#defaultFmtStr>`_ is used.
##
## The following variables, which must be prefixed with a dollar sign (``$``),
## are available:
##
## ============  =======================
##   Variable      Output
## ============  =======================
## $date         Current date
## $time         Current time
## $datetime     $dateT$time
## $app          `os.getAppFilename()<os.html#getAppFilename>`_
## $appname      Base name of ``$app``
## $appdir       Directory name of ``$app``
## $levelid      First letter of log level
## $levelname    Log level name
## ============  =======================
##
## Note that ``$app``, ``$appname``, and ``$appdir`` are not supported when
## using the JavaScript backend.
##
## The following example illustrates how to use format strings:
##
##   ```Nim
##   import std/logging
##
##   var logger = newConsoleLogger(fmtStr="[$time] - $levelname: ")
##   logger.log(lvlInfo, "this is a message")
##   # Output: [19:50:13] - INFO: this is a message
##   ```
##
## Notes when using multiple threads
## ---------------------------------
##
## There are a few details to keep in mind when using this module within
## multiple threads:
## * The global log filter is actually a thread-local variable, so it needs to
##   be set in each thread that uses this module.
## * The list of registered handlers is also a thread-local variable. If a
##   handler will be used in multiple threads, it needs to be registered in
##   each of those threads.

type
  Level* = enum ## \
    ## Enumeration of logging levels.
    ##
    ## Debug messages represent the lowest logging level, and fatal error
    ## messages represent the highest logging level. ``lvlAll`` can be used
    ## to enable all messages, while ``lvlNone`` can be used to disable all
    ## messages.
    ##
    ## Typical usage for each logging level, from lowest to highest, is
    ## described below:
    ##
    ## * **Debug** - debugging information helpful only to developers
    ## * **Info** - anything associated with normal operation and without
    ##   any particular importance
    ## * **Notice** - more important information that users should be
    ##   notified about
    ## * **Warn** - impending problems that require some attention
    ## * **Error** - error conditions that the application can recover from
    ## * **Fatal** - fatal errors that prevent the application from continuing
    ##
    ## It is completely up to the application how to utilize each level.
    ##
    ## Individual loggers have a ``levelThreshold`` field that filters out
    ## any messages with a level lower than the threshold. There is also
    ## a global filter that applies to all log messages, and it can be changed
    ## using the `setLogFilter proc<#setLogFilter,Level>`_.

  ## Debug messages are typically useful to the application developer only,

  ## does not make that distinction.
  ##
  ## **Examples:**
  ##
  ##   ```Nim

  ##
  ##   debug("myProc called with arguments: foo, 5")

  ##
  ## Info messages are typically generated during the normal operation

  ## aggregate these messages for later analysis.
  ##
  ## **Examples:**
  ##
  ##   ```Nim
  ##   var logger = newConsoleLogger()
  ##   addHandler(logger)
  ##
  ##   info("Application started successfully.")

  ## **Examples:**
  ##
  ##   ```Nim
  ##   var logger = newConsoleLogger()
  ##   addHandler(logger)
  ##
  ##   notice("An important operation has completed.")

  ##
  ##   ```Nim
  ##   var logger = newConsoleLogger()
  ##   addHandler(logger)
  ##
  ##   warn("The previous operation took too long to process.")

template error*(args: varargs[string, `$`]) =
  ## Logs an error message to all registered handlers.
  ##
  ## Error messages are for application-level error conditions, such as when
  ## some user input generated an exception. Typically, the application will
  ## continue to run, but with degraded functionality or loss of data, and
  ## these effects might be visible to users.
  ##
  ## **Examples:**
  ##
  ##   ```Nim
  ##   var logger = newConsoleLogger()
  ##   addHandler(logger)
  ##
  ##   error("An exception occurred while processing the form.")
  ##   ```

  log(lvlError, args)

template fatal*(args: varargs[string, `$`]) =
  ## Logs a fatal error message to all registered handlers.
  ##
  ## Fatal error messages usually indicate that the application cannot continue
  ## to run and will exit due to a fatal condition. This template only logs the
  ## message, and it is the application's responsibility to exit properly.
  ##
  ## **Examples:**
  ##
  ##   ```Nim
  ##   var logger = newConsoleLogger()
  ##   addHandler(logger)
  ##
  ##   fatal("Can't open database -- exiting.")
