default-psr-logger
==================

[](#default-psr-logger)

A simple PSR-3 compliant logger

[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/6ad759d2b3868c7cb8bce9745d191eef26d07c2fafdb61ef18adc3e35459534c/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f6d79454e412f64656661756c742d7073722d6c6f676765722e7376673f6272616e63683d6d6173746572)](https://travis-ci.org/myENA/default-psr-logger)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

This library is designed to be used with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org)

Require entry:

```
{
    "myena/default-logger": "@stable"
}
```

Basic Usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

```
$logger = new \MyENA\DefaultLogger();

$logger->debug('hello!');
```

Defaults
--------

[](#defaults)

The default level of this logger is `debug`

The default stream for this logger is `php://output`

Custom Levels
-------------

[](#custom-levels)

You may specify custom levels one of two ways:

**Construction**:

```
$logger = new \MyENA\DefaultLogger(\Psr\Log\LogLevel::INFO);
```

**Post-Construction**:

```
$logger->setLogLevel(\Psr\Log\LogLevel::INFO);
```

If you attempt to specify a level not denoted by [\\Psr\\Log\\LogLevel](https://github.com/php-fig/log/blob/1.0.2/Psr/Log/LogLevel.php), an exception will be thrown.

Custom Stream
-------------

[](#custom-stream)

If you wish for the log output to go to a file or some other resource writeable by the [fwrite](http://php.net/manual/en/function.fwrite.php) function, you may pass it in as the 2nd argument.

```
$logger = new \MyENA\DefaultLogger(\Psr\Log\LogLevel::DEBUG, fopen('tmp/test.log', 'ab'));
```

If this file becomes un-writeable for some reason, it will attempt to reconstruct the internal resource. If it is unable, it will revert to using the stream returned by the [defaultStream()](./src/DefaultLogger.php#L145).

**NOTE**: No write-ability determination is done, if you pass in a read-only stream it will ultimately not work.
