Current features

EventListener

A very simple logging event listener. Usage is as below:

Log4KtEventListener.on<Log4KtLogEvent> {
    if (it.t == null) return@on
    logger.debug("an exception was printed")
}

Currently supported events

• Log4KtLogEvent
  • Fired after a log is printed/sent.
• Log4KtPrepareLogEvent
  • Fired before a log is printed/sent.
  • Level and message can be modified in this event.
  • Event is also cancellable.

Coloured Output (Jansi)

By default, it will colourise the output using Jansi. To disable this feature, simply exclude Jansi as a dependency.

For example:

dependencies {
    compile ("com.zp4rker:log4kt:1.1.1") {
        exclude group: "org.fusesource.jansi", module: "jansi"
    }
}
