NBULog

Log framework based on CocoaLumberjack. Adds dynamic log levels, modules' support and eases usage.

Was part of NBUCore.

Demo

iOS and OS X demo projects are included in the repository.

Features

Dynamic Log Levels

Instead of handling a ddLogLevel variable set you app log level dynamically. Also works with third party libraries that support NBULog.

[NBULog setAppLogLevel:DDLogLevelInfo];
[NBULog setKitLogLevel:DDLogLevelWarning]; // When using NBUKit

Modules

By default all your sources to APP_MODULE_DEFAULT but you can define your own modules in your prefix.pch file.

// Custom log modules
#define APP_MODULE_NETWORK  1 // APP_MODULE_DEFAULT = 0
#define APP_MODULE_OTHER    2

Then just redefine LOG_MODULE for the files that belong to one of your custom modules.

#import "MockNetworkModule.h"

// Define log module for this file
#undef  LOG_MODULE
#define LOG_MODULE APP_MODULE_NETWORK

Also you log a message for a different module than the one your file belongs to:

// Send an extra message for another module
NBULogInfoWithModule(APP_MODULE_OTHER, @"Log message from a APP_MODULE_OTHER");

Finally, you can also modify the log levels of individual modules.

// Only log messages from the custom APP_MODULE_NETWORK
[NBULog setAppLogLevel:DDLogLevelOff];
[NBULog setAppLogLevel:DDLogLevelInfo
             forModule:APP_MODULE_NETWORK];

[NBULog setKitLogLevel:DDLogLevelWarning
             forModule:NBUKIT_MODULE_ADDITIONS]; // When using NBUKit

XcodeColors

When installed, XcodeColors are automatically enabled for the Xcode console.

On-Device Log Console and GUI to Ajust Levels

When LumberjackConsole is present you can add am on-device dashboard logger and adjust log levels from the UI.

#ifndef MY_PRODUCTION_MACRO
    // Register custom modules before adding the dashboard
    [NBULog registerAppContextWithModulesAndNames:@{@(APP_MODULE_NETWORK)   : @"Network",
                                                    @(APP_MODULE_OTHER)     : @"Other"}];
    
    // Add dashboard only for testing builds
    [NBULog addDashboardLogger];
#endif

Installation

Add pod 'NBULog' to your CocoaPods' Podfile:

platform :ios, '8.0'
use_frameworks!

pod 'NBULog'

# Optional on-device console
pod 'NBULog/Console'

Usage in 3rd Party Libraries

You can easily use NBULog in your library when available without making NBULog a requirement.

1. Conditionally Use NBULog

...and fallback to CocoaLumberjack or NSLog otherwise.

E.g. from NBUKit's NBUKitPrivate.h:

//  NBUKitPrivate.h

// ...

// a) Use NBULog for logging when available
#if __has_include("NBULog.h")

#import "NBULog+NBUKit.h"

#undef  LOG_CONTEXT
#define LOG_CONTEXT NBUKIT_LOG_CONTEXT

#undef  LOG_MODULE
#define LOG_MODULE  NBUKIT_MODULE_DEFAULT

#undef  LOG_LEVEL
#define LOG_LEVEL   [NBULog kitLogLevel]

// b) Else try CocoaLumberjack
#elif __has_include("DDLog.h")

#ifdef DEBUG
    #define NBUKitLogLevel DDLogLevelVerbose
#else
    #define NBUKitLogLevel DDLogLevelWarning
#endif

#define LOG_LEVEL_DEF   NBUKitLogLevel
#import <CocoaLumberjack/DDLog.h>

#define NBULogError(frmt, ...)      DDLogError(frmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define NBULogWarn(frmt, ...)       DDLogWarn(frmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define NBULogInfo(frmt, ...)       DDLogInfo(frmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define NBULogDebug(frmt, ...)      DDLogDebug(frmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define NBULogVerbose(frmt, ...)    DDLogVerbose(frmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define NBULogTrace()               NBULogDebug(@"%@", THIS_METHOD)

// c) Else fallback to NSLog
#else

#ifdef DEBUG
    #define LOG_LEVEL 3
#else
    #define LOG_LEVEL 2
#endif

#define THIS_METHOD                 NSStringFromSelector(_cmd)
#define NBULogError(frmt, ...)      do{ if(LOG_LEVEL >= 1) NSLog((frmt), ##__VA_ARGS__); } while(0)
#define NBULogWarn(frmt, ...)       do{ if(LOG_LEVEL >= 2) NSLog((frmt), ##__VA_ARGS__); } while(0)
#define NBULogInfo(frmt, ...)       do{ if(LOG_LEVEL >= 3) NSLog((frmt), ##__VA_ARGS__); } while(0)
#define NBULogDebug(frmt, ...)      do{ if(LOG_LEVEL >= 4) NSLog((frmt), ##__VA_ARGS__); } while(0)
#define NBULogVerbose(frmt, ...)    do{ if(LOG_LEVEL >= 5) NSLog((frmt), ##__VA_ARGS__); } while(0)
#define NBULogTrace()               NBULogDebug(@"%@", THIS_METHOD)

#endif

2. Register a Log Context and Optional Modules

//  NBULog+NBUKit.h

#if __has_include("NBULog.h")

#import <NBULog/NBULog.h>

// NBUKit log context
#define NBUKIT_LOG_CONTEXT          110

// NBUKit modules
#define NBUKIT_MODULE_DEFAULT       0

@interface NBULog (NBUKit)

// Allow to set and read the current levels.
+ (DDLogLevel)kitLogLevel;
+ (void)setKitLogLevel:(DDLogLevel)logLevel;

@end

#endif

Then register your context and modules if you want them to appear in LumberjackConsole.

//  NBULog+NBUKit.m

#if __has_include("NBULog.h")

#import "NBULog+NBUKit.h"
#import <NBULog/NBULogContextDescription.h>

@implementation NBULog (NBUKit)

+ (void)load
{
    // Register the NBUKit log context
    [NBULog registerContextDescription:[NBULogContextDescription descriptionWithName:@"NBUKit"
                                                                             context:NBUKIT_LOG_CONTEXT
                                                                     modulesAndNames:nil
                                                                   contextLevelBlock:^{ return [NBULog kitLogLevel]; }
                                                                setContextLevelBlock:^(int level) { [NBULog setKitLogLevel:level]; }
                                                          contextLevelForModuleBlock:NULL
                                                       setContextLevelForModuleBlock:NULL]];
}

+ (DDLogLevel)kitLogLevel
{
    // ...
}

+ (void)setKitLogLevel:(DDLogLevel)logLevel
{
    // ...
}

@end

#endif
