| # Understanding Loggers and Log Handlers | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Learn how to create and configure loggers, set log levels, and use metadata to add context to your log messages. | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ## Overview | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Create or retrieve a logger to get an instance for logging messages. | ||
| Log messages have a level that you use to indicate the message's importance. | ||
| 
     | 
||
| SwiftLog defines seven log levels, represented by ``Logger/Level``, ordered from least to | ||
| most severe: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| - ``Logger/Level/trace`` | ||
| - ``Logger/Level/debug`` | ||
| - ``Logger/Level/info`` | ||
| - ``Logger/Level/notice`` | ||
| - ``Logger/Level/warning`` | ||
| - ``Logger/Level/error`` | ||
| - ``Logger/Level/critical`` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Once a message is sent to a logger, a log handler processes it. | ||
| The app using the logger configures the handler, usually for the environment in which that app runs, processing messages appropriate to that environment. | ||
| If the app doesn't provide its own log handler, SwiftLog defaults to using a ``StreamLogHandler`` that outputs log messages to `STDOUT`. | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ### Loggers | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Loggers are used to emit log messages at different severity levels: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ```swift | ||
| // Informational message | ||
| logger.info("Processing request") | ||
| 
     | 
||
| // Something went wrong | ||
| logger.error("Houston, we have a problem") | ||
| ``` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ``Logger`` is a value type with value semantics, meaning that when you modify a | ||
| logger's configuration (like its log level or metadata), it only affects that | ||
| specific logger instance: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ```swift | ||
| let baseLogger = Logger(label: "MyApp") | ||
| 
     | 
||
| // Create a new logger with different configuration. | ||
| var requestLogger = baseLogger | ||
| requestLogger.logLevel = .debug | ||
| requestLogger[metadataKey: "request-id"] = "\(UUID())" | ||
| 
     | 
||
| // baseLogger is unchanged. It still has default log level and no metadata | ||
| // requestLogger has debug level and request-id metadata. | ||
| ``` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| This value type behavior makes loggers safe to pass between functions and modify | ||
| without unexpected side effects. | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ### Log Levels | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Log levels can be changed per logger without affecting others: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ```swift | ||
| var logger = Logger(label: "MyLogger") | ||
| logger.logLevel = .debug | ||
| ``` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| For guidance on what level to use for a message, see <doc:001-ChoosingLogLevels>. | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ### Logging Metadata | ||
| 
     | 
||
| Metadata provides contextual information crucial for debugging: | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ```swift | ||
| var logger = Logger(label: "com.example.server") | ||
| logger[metadataKey: "request-uuid"] = "\(UUID())" | ||

| ``` | ||
| 
     | 
||
| ### Source vs Label | ||
| 
     | 
||
| A ``Logger`` has an immutable `label` that identifies its creator, while each log | ||
| message carries a `source` parameter that identifies where the message originated. | ||
| Use `source` for filtering messages from specific subsystems. | ||
