plog

A pretty logger written for Rust programs.

A library to log applications just using macros, includes initially five levels: debug!, info!, ok!, warn! and error!, each one distributed as a macro:

use plog::{info, ok};
use std::{thread, time::Duration};

fn main() {
    let threads: Vec<_> = (0..=10)
        .map(|id| {
            info!("Creating thread {id}");
            thread::spawn(move || {
                thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(1000));
                ok!("Thread {id} terminated");
            })
        })
        .collect();
        
    threads.into_iter().for_each(|thr| thr.join().unwrap());
}

features

Due to the focus on optimization, every functionality from the lib (except log macros) is offered by features. Plog contains the following features:

feature	description	additional dependence	why
`local_date`	Include local date on the log, formatted as `%Y-%M-%D`	`chrono` (branch `time-0.3`)	Get local date information and formatting
`local_time`	Similar to `local_date`, but logs the time with `%H:%M:%S`	`chrono` (branch `time-0.3`)	Get local time information and formatting
`context`	Include the line and file that has required the log	none
`colored`	Use escape sequences to print stylized text	`crossterm`	Crossplatform escape sequences parser
`persistent`	Add a persistent log handled by `LOG_FILEPATH` environment variable, saving each log on the pointed file	`parking_lot` (until 0.2.14)	`const_mutex` for stable Rust and optimizations
`impls`	Implements `log` and `show_<variant>` for `Option<T>` and `Result<T, U>`	none

plans

Split date and time into two features
Include logging methods to Option and Result
Optimize code readability
Include benchmarks
Create documentation
