Mixlib::Log

Mixlib::Log provides a mixin for enabling a class based logger object, a-la Merb, Chef, and Nanite. To use it:

        require 'mixlib/log'

        class Log
                extend Mixlib::Log
        end

You can then do:

        Log.debug("foo")
        Log.info("bar")
        Log.warn("baz")
        Log.error("baz")
        Log.fatal("wewt")

By default, Mixlib::Logger logs to STDOUT. To alter this, you should call Log.init, passing any arguments to the standard Ruby Logger. For example:

        Log.init("/tmp/logfile")    # log to /tmp/logfile
        Log.init("/tmp/logfile", 7) # log to /tmp/logfile, rotate every day

Enjoy!
