# spdlog

Very fast, header-only/compiled, C++ logging library. [![ci](https://github.com/gabime/spdlog/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/gabime/spdlog/actions/workflows/ci.yml)&nbsp; [![Build status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/d2jnxclg20vd0o50?svg=true&branch=v1.x)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/gabime/spdlog) [![Release](https://img.shields.io/github/release/gabime/spdlog.svg)](https://github.com/gabime/spdlog/releases/latest)

## Install
#### Header-only version
Copy the include [folder](https://github.com/gabime/spdlog/tree/v1.x/include/spdlog) to your build tree and use a C++11 compiler.

#### Compiled version (recommended - much faster compile times)
```console
$ git clone https://github.com/gabime/spdlog.git
$ cd spdlog && mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake .. && make -j
```
see example [CMakeLists.txt](https://github.com/gabime/spdlog/blob/v1.x/example/CMakeLists.txt) on how to use.

## Usage samples

#### Basic usage
```c++
#include "spdlog/spdlog.h"

int main() 
{
    spdlog::info("Welcome to spdlog!");
    spdlog::error("Some error message with arg: {}", 1);
    
    spdlog::warn("Easy padding in numbers like {:08d}", 12);
    spdlog::critical("Support for int: {0:d};  hex: {0:x};  oct: {0:o}; bin: {0:b}", 42);
    spdlog::info("Support for floats {:03.2f}", 1.23456);
    spdlog::info("Positional args are {1} {0}..", "too", "supported");
    spdlog::info("{:<30}", "left aligned");
    
    spdlog::set_level(spdlog::level::debug); // Set global log level to debug
    spdlog::debug("This message should be displayed..");    
    
    // change log pattern
    spdlog::set_pattern("[%H:%M:%S %z] [%n] [%^---%L---%$] [thread %t] %v");
    
    // Compile time log levels
    // Note that this does not change the current log level, it will only
    // remove (depending on SPDLOG_ACTIVE_LEVEL) the call on the release code.
    SPDLOG_TRACE("Some trace message with param {}", 42);
    SPDLOG_DEBUG("Some debug message");
}

```
---
#### Create stdout/stderr logger object
```c++
#include "spdlog/spdlog.h"
#include "spdlog/sinks/stdout_color_sinks.h"
void stdout_example()
{
    // create a color multi-threaded logger
    auto console = spdlog::stdout_color_mt("console");    
    auto err_logger = spdlog::stderr_color_mt("stderr");    
    spdlog::get("console")->info("loggers can be retrieved from a global registry using the spdlog::get(logger_name)");
}
```

---
#### Basic file logger
```c++
#include "spdlog/sinks/basic_file_sink.h"
void basic_logfile_example()
{
    try 
    {
        auto logger = spdlog::basic_logger_mt("basic_logger", "logs/basic-log.txt");
    }
    catch (const spdlog::spdlog_ex &ex)
    {
        std::cout << "Log init failed: " << ex.what() << std::endl;
    }
}
```
---
#### Rotating files
```c++
#include "spdlog/sinks/rotating_file_sink.h"
void rotating_example()
{
    // Create a file rotating logger with 5 MB size max and 3 rotated files
    auto max_size = 1048576 * 5;
    auto max_files = 3;
    auto logger = spdlog::rotating_logger_mt("some_logger_name", "logs/rotating.txt", max_size, max_files);
}
```

---
#### Daily files
```c++

#include "spdlog/sinks/daily_file_sink.h"
void daily_example()
{
    // Create a daily logger - a new file is created every day at 2:30 am
    auto logger = spdlog::daily_logger_mt("daily_logger", "logs/daily.txt", 2, 30);
}

```

---
#### Backtrace support
```c++
// Debug messages can be stored in a ring buffer instead of being logged immediately.
// This is useful to display debug logs only when needed (e.g. when an error happens).
// When needed, call dump_backtrace() to dump them to your log.

spdlog::enable_backtrace(32); // Store the latest 32 messages in a buffer. 
// or my_logger->enable_backtrace(32)..
for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
  spdlog::debug("Backtrace message {}", i); // not logged yet..
}
// e.g. if some error happened:
spdlog::dump_backtrace(); // log them now! show the last 32 messages
// or my_logger->dump_backtrace(32)..
```

---
#### Periodic flush
```c++
// periodically flush all *registered* loggers every 3 seconds:
// warning: only use if all your loggers are thread-safe ("_mt" loggers)
spdlog::flush_every(std::chrono::seconds(3));

```

---
#### Stopwatch
```c++
// Stopwatch support for spdlog
#include "spdlog/stopwatch.h"
void stopwatch_example()
{
    spdlog::stopwatch sw;    
    spdlog::debug("Elapsed {}", sw);
    spdlog::debug("Elapsed {:.3}", sw);       
}

```

---
#### Log binary data in hex
```c++
// many types of std::container<char> types can be used.
// ranges are supported too.
// format flags:
// {:X} - print in uppercase.
// {:s} - don't separate each byte with space.
// {:p} - don't print the position on each line start.
// {:n} - don't split the output into lines.
// {:a} - show ASCII if :n is not set.

#include "spdlog/fmt/bin_to_hex.h"

void binary_example()
{
    auto console = spdlog::get("console");
    std::array<char, 80> buf;
    console->info("Binary example: {}", spdlog::to_hex(buf));
    console->info("Another binary example:{:n}", spdlog::to_hex(std::begin(buf), std::begin(buf) + 10));
    // more examples:
    // logger->info("uppercase: {:X}", spdlog::to_hex(buf));
    // logger->info("uppercase, no delimiters: {:Xs}", spdlog::to_hex(buf));
    // logger->info("uppercase, no delimiters, no position info: {:Xsp}", spdlog::to_hex(buf));
}

```

---
#### Logger with multi sinks - each with a different format and log level
```c++

// create a logger with 2 targets, with different log levels and formats.
// The console will show only warnings or errors, while the file will log all.
void multi_sink_example()
{
    auto console_sink = std::make_shared<spdlog::sinks::stdout_color_sink_mt>();
    console_sink->set_level(spdlog::level::warn);
    console_sink->set_pattern("[multi_sink_example] [%^%l%$] %v");

auto file_sink = std::make_shared<spdlog::sinks::basic_file_sink_mt>("logs/multisink.txt", true);
    file_sink->set_level(spdlog::level::trace);

spdlog::logger logger("multi_sink", {console_sink, file_sink});
    logger.set_level(spdlog::level::debug);
    logger.warn("this should appear in both console and file");
    logger.info("this message should not appear in the console, only in the file");
}
```

---
#### User-defined callbacks about log events
```c++

// create a logger with a lambda function callback, the callback will be called
// each time something is logged to the logger
void callback_example()
{
    auto callback_sink = std::make_shared<spdlog::sinks::callback_sink_mt>([](const spdlog::details::log_msg &msg) {
         // for example you can be notified by sending an email to yourself
    });
    callback_sink->set_level(spdlog::level::err);

auto console_sink = std::make_shared<spdlog::sinks::stdout_color_sink_mt>();
    spdlog::logger logger("custom_callback_logger", {console_sink, callback_sink});

logger.info("some info log");
    logger.error("critical issue"); // will notify you
}
```

---
#### Asynchronous logging
```c++
#include "spdlog/async.h"
#include "spdlog/sinks/basic_file_sink.h"
void async_example()
{
    // default thread pool settings can be modified *before* creating the async logger:
    // spdlog::init_thread_pool(8192, 1); // queue with 8k items and 1 backing thread.
    auto async_file = spdlog::basic_logger_mt<spdlog::async_factory>("async_file_logger", "logs/async_log.txt");
    // alternatively:
    // auto async_file = spdlog::create_async<spdlog::sinks::basic_file_sink_mt>("async_file_logger", "logs/async_log.txt");   
}

```

---
#### Asynchronous logger with multi sinks
```c++
#include "spdlog/async.h"
#include "spdlog/sinks/stdout_color_sinks.h"
#include "spdlog/sinks/rotating_file_sink.h"

void multi_sink_example2()
{
    spdlog::init_thread_pool(8192, 1);
    auto stdout_sink = std::make_shared<spdlog::sinks::stdout_color_sink_mt >();
    auto rotating_sink = std::make_shared<spdlog::sinks::rotating_file_sink_mt>("mylog.txt", 1024*1024*10, 3);
    std::vector<spdlog::sink_ptr> sinks {stdout_sink, rotating_sink};
    auto logger = std::make_shared<spdlog::async_logger>("loggername", sinks.begin(), sinks.end(), spdlog::thread_pool(), spdlog::async_overflow_policy::block);
    spdlog::register_logger(logger);
}
```
 
---
#### User-defined types
```c++
template<>
struct fmt::formatter<my_type> : fmt::formatter<std::string>
{
    auto format(my_type my, format_context &ctx) const -> decltype(ctx.out())
    {
        return format_to(ctx.out(), "[my_type i={}]", my.i);
    }
};

void user_defined_example()
{
    spdlog::info("user defined type: {}", my_type(14));
}

```

---
#### User-defined flags in the log pattern
```c++ 
// Log patterns can contain custom flags.
// the following example will add new flag '%*' - which will be bound to a <my_formatter_flag> instance.
#include "spdlog/pattern_formatter.h"
class my_formatter_flag : public spdlog::custom_flag_formatter
{
public:
    void format(const spdlog::details::log_msg &, const std::tm &, spdlog::memory_buf_t &dest) override
    {
        std::string some_txt = "custom-flag";
        dest.append(some_txt.data(), some_txt.data() + some_txt.size());
    }

std::unique_ptr<custom_flag_formatter> clone() const override
    {
        return spdlog::details::make_unique<my_formatter_flag>();
    }
};

void custom_flags_example()
{    
    auto formatter = std::make_unique<spdlog::pattern_formatter>();
    formatter->add_flag<my_formatter_flag>('*').set_pattern("[%n] [%*] [%^%l%$] %v");
    spdlog::set_formatter(std::move(formatter));
}

```

---
#### Custom error handler
```c++
void err_handler_example()
{
    // can be set globally or per logger(logger->set_error_handler(..))
    spdlog::set_error_handler([](const std::string &msg) { spdlog::get("console")->error("*** LOGGER ERROR ***: {}", msg); });
    spdlog::get("console")->info("some invalid message to trigger an error {}{}{}{}", 3);
}

```

---
#### syslog
```c++
#include "spdlog/sinks/syslog_sink.h"
void syslog_example()
{
    std::string ident = "spdlog-example";
    auto syslog_logger = spdlog::syslog_logger_mt("syslog", ident, LOG_PID);
    syslog_logger->warn("This is warning that will end up in syslog.");
}
```
---
#### Android example
```c++
#include "spdlog/sinks/android_sink.h"
void android_example()
{
    std::string tag = "spdlog-android";
    auto android_logger = spdlog::android_logger_mt("android", tag);
    android_logger->critical("Use \"adb shell logcat\" to view this message.");
}
```

---
#### Load log levels from the env variable or argv

```c++
#include "spdlog/cfg/env.h"
int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
    spdlog::cfg::load_env_levels();
    // or from the command line:
    // ./example SPDLOG_LEVEL=info,mylogger=trace
    // #include "spdlog/cfg/argv.h" // for loading levels from argv
    // spdlog::cfg::load_argv_levels(argc, argv);
}
```
So then you can:

```console
$ export SPDLOG_LEVEL=info,mylogger=trace
$ ./example
```

---
#### Log file open/close event handlers
```c++
// You can get callbacks from spdlog before/after a log file has been opened or closed. 
// This is useful for cleanup procedures or for adding something to the start/end of the log file.
void file_events_example()
{
    // pass the spdlog::file_event_handlers to file sinks for open/close log file notifications
    spdlog::file_event_handlers handlers;
    handlers.before_open = [](spdlog::filename_t filename) { spdlog::info("Before opening {}", filename); };
    handlers.after_open = [](spdlog::filename_t filename, std::FILE *fstream) { fputs("After opening\n", fstream); };
    handlers.before_close = [](spdlog::filename_t filename, std::FILE *fstream) { fputs("Before closing\n", fstream); };
    handlers.after_close = [](spdlog::filename_t filename) { spdlog::info("After closing {}", filename); };
    auto my_logger = spdlog::basic_logger_st("some_logger", "logs/events-sample.txt", true, handlers);        
}
```

---
#### Replace the Default Logger
```c++
void replace_default_logger_example()
{
    auto new_logger = spdlog::basic_logger_mt("new_default_logger", "logs/new-default-log.txt", true);
    spdlog::set_default_logger(new_logger);
    spdlog::info("new logger log message");
}
```

---
#### Log to Qt with nice colors
```c++
#include "spdlog/spdlog.h"
#include "spdlog/sinks/qt_sinks.h"
MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) : QMainWindow(parent)
{
    setMinimumSize(640, 480);
    auto log_widget = new QTextEdit(this);
    setCentralWidget(log_widget);
    int max_lines = 500; // keep the text widget to max 500 lines. remove old lines if needed.
    auto logger = spdlog::qt_color_logger_mt("qt_logger", log_widget, max_lines);
    logger->info("Some info message");
}
```
---

#### Mapped Diagnostic Context
```c++
// Mapped Diagnostic Context (MDC) is a map that stores key-value pairs (string values) in thread local storage.
// Each thread maintains its own MDC, which loggers use to append diagnostic information to log outputs.
// Note: it is not supported in asynchronous mode due to its reliance on thread-local storage.
#include "spdlog/mdc.h"
void mdc_example()
{
    spdlog::mdc::put("key1", "value1");
    spdlog::mdc::put("key2", "value2");
    // if not using the default format, use the %& formatter to print mdc data
    // spdlog::set_pattern("[%H:%M:%S %z] [%^%L%$] [%&] %v");
}
```
