# NAME
Log::Any::Adapter::FileHandle - A basic Log::Any::Adapter to forward messages to a filehandle
# VERSION
version 0.010
# SYNOPSIS
use Log::Any qw($log);
use Log::Any::Adapter;
# Send all logs to Log::Any::Adapter::FileHandle
Log::Any::Adapter->set('FileHandle');
$log->info("Hello world");
# DESCRIPTION
This module is a basic adapter that will simply forward log messages to a filehandle, or any object that
supports a 'print' method ([IO::String](https://metacpan.org/pod/IO::String), [IO::Socket::INET](https://metacpan.org/pod/IO::Socket::INET), Plack's $env->{psgi.errors} object, etc).
I've created it so that my scripts running under damontools or runit can output
messages to locally defined logs. It does not timestamp messages, that responsbility is
delegated to the external log capture mechanism.
You can override the default configuration by passing extra arguments to the
`Log::Any` set\_adapter method:
- fh
Pass in your IO::Handle-like object here. If this isn't specified, it will
default to opening STDERR. If the object supports an autoflush method,
autoflush will be enabled, unless no\_autoflush is set.
- no\_autoflush
Disable automatically turning on autoflush on the fh object.
- format
A sprintf string that controls the formatting of the message. It is supplied 2
arguments: the log level as supplied by Log::Any (usually all-lowercase), and
the message to be logged. The default is "\[%s\] %s\\n". This value should
contain the log record terminator, such as a newline.
- escape
one of 'none' (default), 'newline', or 'nonascii'. Controls how messages are
pre-filtered before passing them to a filehandle. This is handy if you want do
smoosh messages into a single line (for easier filtering + processing), or if
you want to filter non ascii characters for safe terminal printing.
