<title>Overview</title>
<p>Erlang/OTP provides a standard API for logging. The backend of
this API can be used as is, or it can be customized to suite
specific needs.</p>
<p>It consists of two parts - the <em>logger</em> part and the
<em>handler</em> part. The logger will forward log events to one
or more handler(s).</p>
<image file="logger_arch.png">
<icaption>Conceptual overview</icaption>
</image>
<p><em>Filters</em> can be added to the logger and to each
handler. The filters decide if an event is to be forwarded or
not, and they can also modify all parts of the log event.</p>
<p>A <em>formatter</em> can be set for each handler. The formatter
does the final formatting of the log event, including the log
message itself, and possibly a timestamp, header and other
metadata.</p>
<p>In accordance with the Syslog protocol, RFC-5424, eight
severity levels can be specified:</p>
<table align="left">
<row>
<cell><strong>Level</strong></cell>
<cell align="center"><strong>Integer</strong></cell>

<p>A log event is allowed by Logger if the integer value of
its <c>Level</c> is less than or equal to the currently
configured log level. The log level can be configured globally,
or to allow more verbose logging from a specific part of the
system, per module.</p>

<taglist>
<tag><marker id="Handler"/>Handler</tag>
<item>
<p>A handler is defined as a module exporting the following
function:</p>
<code>log(Log, Config) -> ok</code>
<p>A handler is called by the logger backend after filtering on
logger level and on handler level for the handler which is
about to be called. The function call is done on the client
process, and it is up to the handler implementation if other
processes are to be involved or not.</p>
<p>Multiple instances of the same handler can be
added. Configuration is per instance.</p>
</item>
<tag><marker id="Filter"/>Filter</tag>
<item>
<p>Filters can be set on the logger or on a handler. Logger
filters are applied first, and if passed, the handler filters
for each handler are applied. The handler plugin is only
called if all handler filters for the handler in question also
pass.</p>
<p>A filter is specified as:</p>
<code>{fun((Log,Extra) -> Log | stop | ignore), Extra}</code>
<p>The configuration parameter <c>filter_default</c>
specifies the behavior if all filters return <c>ignore</c>.
<c>filter_default</c> is by default set to <c>log</c>.</p>
<p>The <c>Extra</c> parameter may contain any data that the
filter needs.</p>
</item>
<tag><marker id="Formatter"/>Formatter</tag>
<item>
<p>A formatter is defined as a module exporting the following
function:</p>
<code>format(Log,Extra) -> unicode:chardata()</code>
<p>The formatter plugin is called by each handler, and the
returned string can be printed to the handler's destination
(stdout, file, ...).</p>

<section>
<marker id="compatibility"/>
<title>Backwards compatibility with error_logger</title>
<p>Logger provides backwards compatibility with the old
<c>error_logger</c> in the following ways:</p>
<taglist>
<tag>Legacy event handlers</tag>
<item>
<p>To use event handlers written for <c>error_logger</c>, just
add your event handler with</p>
<code>
error_logger:add_report_handler/1,2.
</code>
<p>This will automatically start the <c>error_logger</c>
event manager, and add <c>error_logger</c> as a
handler to <c>logger</c>, with configuration</p>
<code>
#{level=>info,
filter_default=>log,
filters=>[]}.
</code>
<p>Note that this handler will ignore events that do not
originate from the old <c>error_logger</c> API, or from
within OTP. This means that if your code uses the logger API
for logging, then your log events will be discarded by this
handler.</p>
<p>Also note that <c>error_logger</c> is not overload
protected.</p>
</item>
<tag>Logger API</tag>
<item>
<p>The old <c>error_logger</c> API still exists, but should
only be used by legacy code. It will be removed in a later
release.</p>
</item>
<tag>Output format</tag>
<item>
<p>To get log events on the same format as produced
by <c>error_logger_tty_h</c> and <c>error_logger_file_h</c>,
use the default formatter, <c>logger_formatter</c>, with
configuration parameter <c>legacy_header=>true</c>. This is
also the default.</p>
</item>
<tag>Default format of log events from OTP</tag>
<item>
<p>By default, all log events originating from within OTP,
except the former so called "SASL reports", look the same as
before.</p>
</item>
<tag>SASL reports</tag>
<item>
<p>By SASL reports we mean supervisor reports, crash reports
and progress reports.</p>
<p>In earlier releases, these reports were only logged when
the SASL application was running, and they were printed
trough specific event handlers
named <c>sasl_report_tty_h</c>
and <c>sasl_report_file_h</c>.</p>
<p>The destination of these log events were configured by
environment variables for the SASL application.</p>
<p>Due to the specific event handlers, the output format
slightly differed from other log events.</p>
<p>As of OTP-21, the concept of SASL reports is removed,
meaning that the default behavior is as follows:</p>
<list>
<item>Supervisor reports, crash reports and progress reports
are no longer connected to the SASL application.</item>
<item>Supervisor reports and crash reports are logged by
default.</item>
<item>Progress reports are not logged by default, but can be
enabled with the kernel environment
variable <c>logger_log_progress</c>.</item>
<item>The output format is the same for all log
events.</item>
</list>
<p>If the old behavior is preferred, the kernel environment
variable <c>logger_sasl_compatible</c> can be set
to <c>true</c>. The old SASL environment variables can then
be used as before, and the SASL reports will only be printed
if the SASL application is running - through a second log
handler named <c>sasl_h</c>.</p>
<p>All SASL reports have a metadata
field <c>domain=>[beam,erlang,otp,sasl]</c>, which can be
used, for example, by filters to to stop or allow the
events.</p>
</item>
</taglist>
</section>
<section>
<title>Error handling</title>
<p>Log data is expected to be either a format string and
arguments, a string (unicode:chardata), or a report (map or
key-value list) which can be converted to a format string and
arguments by the handler. A default report callback should be
included in the log event's metadata, which can be used for
converting the report to a format string and arguments. The
handler might also do a custom conversion if the default format
is not desired.</p>
<p><c>logger</c> does, to a certain extent, check its input data
before forwarding a log event to the handlers, but it does not
evaluate conversion funs or check the validity of format strings
and arguments. This means that any filter or handler must be
careful when formatting the data of a log event, making sure
that it does not crash due to bad input data or faulty
callbacks.</p>
<p>If a filter or handler still crashes, logger will remove the
filter or handler in question from the configuration, and then
print a short error message on the console. A debug event
containing the crash reason and other details is also issued,
and can be seen if a handler is installed which logs on debug
level.</p>
</section>
<section>
<title>Example: add a handler to log debug events to file</title>
<p>When starting an erlang node, the default behavior is that all
log events with level info and above are logged to the
console. In order to also log debug events, you can either
change the global log level to <c>debug</c> or add a separate
handler to take care of this. In this example we will add a new
handler which prints the debug events to a separate file.</p>
<p>First, we add an instance of logger_std_h with
type <c>{file,File}</c>, and we set the handler's level
to <c>debug</c>:</p>
<pre>
1> <input>Config = #{level=>debug,logger_std_h=>#{type=>{file,"./debug.log"}}}.</input>
#{logger_std_h => #{type => {file,"./debug.log"}},
level => debug}
2> <input>logger:add_handler(debug_handler,logger_std_h,Config).</input>
ok</pre>
<p>By default, the handler receives all events
(<c>filter_defalt=log</c>), so we need to add a filter to stop
all non-debug events:</p>
<pre>
3> <input>Fun = fun(#{level:=debug}=Log,_) -> Log; (_,_) -> stop end.</input>
#Fun<erl_eval.12.98642416>
4> <input>logger:add_handler_filter(debug_handler,allow_debug,{Fun,[]}).</input>
ok</pre>
<p>And finally, we need to make sure that the logger itself allows
debug events. This can either be done by setting the global
logger level:</p>
<pre>
5> <input>logger:set_logger_config(level,debug).</input>
ok</pre>
<p>Or by allowing debug events from one or a few modules only:</p>
<pre>
6> <input>logger:set_module_level(mymodule,debug).</input>
ok</pre>
</section>
<section>
<title>Example: implement a handler</title>
<p>The only requirement that a handler MUST fulfill is to export
the following function:</p>
<code>log(logger:log(),logger:config()) ->ok</code>
<p>It may also implement the following callbacks:</p>
<code>
adding_handler(logger:handler_id(),logger:config()) -> {ok,logger:config()} | {error,term()}
removing_handler(logger:handler_id()) -> ok
changing_config(logger:handler_id(),logger:config(),logger:config()) -> {ok,logger:config()} | {error,term()}
</code>
<p>When logger:add_handler(Id,Module,Config) is called, logger
will first call Module:adding_handler(Id,Config), and if it
returns {ok,NewConfig} the NewConfig is written to the
configuration database. After this, the handler may receive log
events as calls to Module:log/2.</p>
<p>A handler can be removed by calling
logger:remove_handler(Id). logger will call
Module:removing_handler(Id), and then remove the handler's
configuration from the configuration database.</p>
<p>When logger:set_handler_config is called, logger calls
Module:changing_config(Id,OldConfig,NewConfig). If this function
returns ok, the NewConfig is written to the configuration
database.</p>
<p>A simple handler which prints to the console could be
implemented as follows:</p>
<code>
-module(myhandler).
-export([log/2]).
log(Log,#{formatter:={FModule,FConfig}) ->
io:put_chars(FModule:format(Log,FConfig)).
</code>
<p>A simple handler which prints to file could be implemented like
this:</p>
<code>
-module(myhandler).
-export([adding_handler/2, removing_handler/1, log/2]).
-export([init/1, handle_call/3, handle_cast/2, terminate/2]).
adding_handler(Id,Config) ->
{ok,Fd} = file:open(File,[append,{encoding,utf8}]),
{ok,Config#{myhandler_fd=>Fd}}.
removing_handler(Id,#{myhandler_fd:=Fd}) ->
_ = file:close(Fd),
ok.
log(Log,#{myhandler_fd:=Fd,formatter:={FModule,FConfig}}) ->
io:put_chars(Fd,FModule:format(Log,FConfig)).
</code>
<note><p>The above handlers do not have any overload
protection, and all log events are printed directly from the
client process.</p></note>
<p>For examples of overload protection, please refer to the
implementation
of <seealso marker="logger_std_h"><c>logger_std_h</c></seealso>
and <seealso marker="logger_disk_log_h"><c>logger_disk_log_h</c>
</seealso>.</p>
<p>Below is a simpler example of a handler which logs through one
single process.</p>
<code>
-module(myhandler).
-export([adding_handler/2, removing_handler/1, log/2]).
-export([init/1, handle_call/3, handle_cast/2, terminate/2]).
adding_handler(Id,Config) ->
{ok,Pid} = gen_server:start(?MODULE,Config),
{ok,Config#{myhandler_pid=>Pid}}.
removing_handler(Id,#{myhandler_pid:=Pid}) ->
gen_server:stop(Pid).
log(Log,#{myhandler_pid:=Pid} = Config) ->
gen_server:cast(Pid,{log,Log,Config}).
init(#{myhandler_file:=File}) ->
{ok,Fd} = file:open(File,[append,{encoding,utf8}]),
{ok,#{file=>File,fd=>Fd}}.
handle_call(_,_,State) ->
{reply,{error,bad_request},State}.
handle_cast({log,Log,Config},#{fd:=Fd} = State) ->
do_log(Fd,Log,Config),
{noreply,State}.
terminate(Reason,#{fd:=Fd}) ->
_ = file:close(Fd),
ok.
do_log(Fd,Log,#{formatter:={FModule,FConfig}}) ->
String = FModule:format(Log,FConfig),
io:put_chars(Fd,String).

<marker id="overload_protection"/>
<title>Protecting the handler from overload</title>
<p>In order for the built-in handlers to survive, and stay responsive,
during periods of high load (i.e. when huge numbers of incoming
log requests must be handled), a mechanism for overload protection
has been implemented in the
<seealso marker="logger_std_h"><c>logger_std_h</c></seealso>
and <seealso marker="logger_disk_log_h"><c>logger_disk_log_h</c>
</seealso> handler. The mechanism, used by both handlers, works
as follows:</p>
<section>
<title>Message queue length</title>
<p>The handler process keeps track of the length of its message
queue and reacts in different ways depending on the current status.
The purpose is to keep the handler in, or (as quickly as possible),
get the handler into, a state where it can keep up with the pace
of incoming log requests. The memory usage of the handler must never
keep growing larger and larger, since that would eventually cause the
handler to crash. Three thresholds with associated actions have been
defined:</p>
<taglist>
<tag><c>toggle_sync_qlen</c></tag>
<item>
<p>The default value of this level is <c>10</c> messages,
and as long as the length of the message queue is lower, all log
requests are handled asynchronously. This simply means that the
process sending the log request (by calling a log function in the
logger API) does not wait for a response from the handler but
continues executing immediately after the request (i.e. it will not
be affected by the time it takes the handler to print to the log
device). If the message queue grows larger than this value, however,
the handler starts handling the log requests synchronously instead,
meaning the process sending the request will have to wait for a
response. When the handler manages to reduce the message queue to a
level below the <c>toggle_sync_qlen</c> threshold, asynchronous
operation is resumed. The switch from asynchronous to synchronous
mode will force the logging tempo of few busy senders to slow down,
but can not protect the handler sufficiently in situations of many
concurrent senders.</p>
</item>
<tag><c>drop_new_reqs_qlen</c></tag>
<item>
<p>When the message queue has grown larger than this threshold, which
defaults to <c>200</c> messages, the handler switches to a mode in
which it drops any new requests being made. Dropping a message in
this state means that the log function never actually sends a message
to the handler. The log call simply returns without an action. When
the length of the message queue has been reduced to a level below this
threshold, synchronous or asynchronous request handling mode is
resumed.</p>
</item>
<tag><c>flush_reqs_qlen</c></tag>
<item>
<p>Above this threshold, which defaults to <c>1000</c> messages, a
flush operation takes place, in which all messages buffered in the
process mailbox get deleted without any logging actually taking
place. (Processes waiting for a response from a synchronous log request
will receive a reply indicating that the request has been dropped).</p>
</item>
</taglist>
<p>For the overload protection algorithm to work properly, it is a
requirement that:</p>
<p><c>toggle_sync_qlen < drop_new_reqs_qlen < flush_reqs_qlen</c></p>
<p>During high load scenarios, the length of the handler message queue
rarely grows in a linear and predictable way. Instead, whenever the
handler process gets scheduled in, it can have an almost arbitrary number
of messages waiting in the mailbox. It's for this reason that the overload
protection mechanism is focused on acting quickly and quite drastically
(such as immediately dropping or flushing messages) as soon as a large
queue length is detected. </p>
<p>The thresholds listed above may be modified by the user if, e.g, a handler
shouldn't drop or flush messages unless the message queue length grows
extremely large. (The handler must be allowed to use large amounts of memory
under such circumstances however). Another example of when the user might want
to change the settings is if, for performance reasons, the logging processes must
never get blocked by synchronous log requests, while dropping or flushing requests
is perfectly acceptable (since it doesn't affect the performance of the
loggers).</p>
<p>A configuration example:</p>
<code type="none">
logger:add_handler(my_standard_h, logger_std_h,
#{logger_std_h =>
#{type => {file,"./system_info.log"},
toggle_sync_qlen => 100,
drop_new_reqs_qlen => 1000,
flush_reqs_qlen => 2000}}).
</code>
</section>
<section>
<title>Controlling bursts of log requests</title>
<p>A potential problem with large bursts of log requests, is that log files
may get full or wrapped too quickly (in the latter case overwriting
previously logged data that could be of great importance). For this reason,
both built-in handlers offer the possibility to set a maximum level of how
many requests to process with a certain time frame. With this burst control
feature enabled, the handler will take care of bursts of log requests
without choking log files, or the console, with massive amounts of
printouts. These are the configuration parameters:</p>
<taglist>
<tag><c>enable_burst_limit</c></tag>
<item>
<p>This is set to <c>true</c> by default. The value <c>false</c>
disables the burst control feature.</p>
</item>
<tag><c>burst_limit_size</c></tag>
<item>
<p>This is how many requests should be processed within the
<c>burst_window_time</c> time frame. After this maximum has been
reached, successive requests will be dropped until the end of the
time frame. The default value is <c>500</c> messages.</p>
</item>
<tag><c>burst_window_time</c></tag>
<item>
<p>The default window is <c>1000</c> milliseconds long.</p>
</item>
</taglist>
<p>A configuration example:</p>
<code type="none">
logger:add_handler(my_disk_log_h, logger_disk_log_h,
#{disk_log_opts =>
#{file => "./my_disk_log"},
logger_disk_log_h =>
#{burst_limit_size => 10,
burst_window_time => 500}}).
</code>
</section>
<section>
<title>Terminating a large handler</title>
<p>A handler process may grow large even if it can manage peaks of high load
without crashing. The overload protection mechanism includes user configurable
levels for a maximum allowed message queue length and maximum allowed memory
usage. This feature is disabled by default, but can be switched on by means
of the following configuration parameters:</p>
