Arduino basic logging library

MicroLog

A basic Arduino library to help with logging through a Stream like Serial. The added beneficts of this library are:

1. You can deactivate all logging with one line of code.
2. You can print up to 9 values with the same function instead of calling multiple print().

Use

Add to your global space:

#include <MicroLog.h>

By default, MicroLog will use Serial. You can change the Stream (to Serial1 for example) with :

#define MICRO_LOG_STREAM Serial1

In setup() begin the Stream (to a baud of 115200) with :

LOG_BEGIN(115200)

You can then log to the stream with LOG() like this :

// THIS WILL LOG SOMETHING LIKE : "Millis : 3294"
LOG("Millis :", millis());

You can have up to 9 arguments with LOG() :

// THIS WILL LOG SOMETHING LIKE : "State of pin 3 is 0 and state of pon 2 is 1"
LOG("State of pin", 3 , "is" , digitalRead(3), "and", "state of pin", 2 , "is" , digitalRead(2));

Changing the separator

By default, the separator is a space " ", but this can be changed to anything by adding before #include <MicroLog.h> :

#define LOG_SEPARATOR "|"
#include <MicroLog.h>

Deactivate the logging

To deactive the logging, add before #include <MicroLog.h> :

#define LOG_DEACTIVATE
#include <MicroLog.h>
