This function initializes the logger with customization parameters, including the output destination and log thresholds for both stdout and log file.
Usage
initialize_logger(
log_output = "stdout",
log_threshold_stdout = "INFO",
log_file = "hawkinRlog.log",
log_threshold_file = "INFO"
)Arguments
- log_output
A character string specifying the log output destination. Options are "stdout", "file", or "both". Default is "stdout".
- log_threshold_stdout
A character string specifying the log threshold for stdout. Options are "TRACE", "DEBUG", "INFO", "WARN", "ERROR", "FATAL". Default is "INFO".
- log_file
A character string specifying the name of the custom log file.
- log_threshold_file
A character string specifying the log threshold for the log file. Options are "TRACE", "DEBUG", "INFO", "WARN", "ERROR", "FATAL". Default is "INFO".
Details
The function sets up the logging configuration with the specified output destination
and log thresholds. If "stdout" is chosen, logs will be output to the console.
If "file" is chosen, logs will be written to a file named "hawkinRlog.log" by default.
The log_file parameter can be used to use a different file name and location.
If "both" is chosen, logs will be output to both the console and the log file.
Users can specify different log thresholds for stdout and log file.
Examples
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Log messages as stdout with a DEBUG threshold
initialize_logger(log_output = "stdout", log_threshold_stdout = "DEBUG")
# Log to file in 'app' directory with a TRACE threshold
initialize_logger(
log_output = "file", log_file = "app/mylog", log_threshold_file = "TRACE"
)
} # }
