NAME
Log::Any::Adapter::Util - Common utility functions for Log::Any

VERSION
version 1.720

DESCRIPTION
This module has utility functions to help develop Log::Any::Adapter subclasses or Log::Any::Proxy formatters/filters. It also has some functions used in internal testing.

SUBROUTINES

  logging_methods
Returns a list of all logging method. E.g. "trace", "info", etc.

  detection_methods
Returns a list of detection methods. E.g. "is_trace", "is_info", etc.

  logging_and_detection_methods
Returns a list of logging and detection methods (but not aliases).

  log_level_aliases
Returns key/value pairs mapping aliases to "official" names. E.g. "err" maps to "error".

  logging_aliases
Returns a list of logging alias names. These are the keys from "log_level_aliases".

  detection_aliases
Returns a list of detection aliases. E.g. "is_err", "is_fatal", etc.

  numeric_level
Given a level name (or alias), returns the numeric value described above under log level constants. E.g. "err" would return 3.

  dump_one_line
Given a reference, returns a one-line Data::Dumper dump with keys sorted.

  make_method
Given a method name, a code reference and a package name, installs the code reference as a method in the package.

  require_dynamic (DEPRECATED)
Given a class name, attempts to load it via require unless the class already has a constructor available. Throws an error on failure. Used internally and may become private in the future.

  read_file (DEPRECATED)
Slurp a file. Does *not* apply any layers. Used for testing and may become private in the future.

  cmp_deeply (DEPRECATED)
Compares dump_one_line results for two references. Also takes a test label as a third argument. Used for testing and may become private in the future.

USAGE
Nothing is exported by default.

  Log level constants
If the ":levels" tag is included in the import list, the following numeric constants will be imported:

    EMERGENCY => 0
    ALERT     => 1
    CRITICAL  => 2
    ERROR     => 3
    WARNING   => 4
    NOTICE    => 5
