If the built-in level mixins don’t satisfy your need to be different, you can create your own traits similar to the
included ones. Here’s an example of creating a super low-level method called whisper.
import org.scalawag.timber.api._
import org.scalawag.timber.api.level._
import org.scalawag.timber.api.BaseLogger._
trait Whisper { _: BaseLogger =>
/** Override to customize the level at which calls to `whisper` create entries. */
protected[this] val whisperLevel:Level = 0
def whisper(message:Message)(implicit location:LogCallLocation):Unit = log(whisperLevel,Set.empty)(message)(location)
def whisper(tags:TraversableOnce[Tag])(message:Message)(implicit location:LogCallLocation):Unit = log(whisperLevel,tags)(message)(location)
}
val log = new BaseLogger with Emergency with Fatal with Finest with Whisper
Of course, you don’t need to use this pattern. This may just be easier because it’s copy-and-paste from the built-in
mixin level traits. It also allows you to mix in other built-in traits as well. You could just as easily subclass
BaseLogger and add whatever methods you want, ignoring the above pattern altogether.
import org.scalawag.timber.api._
class MyLogger extends BaseLogger {
def scream() = log(10000)("AAAARGH!")
}
val log = new MyLogger
log.scream()
