pub struct Formatter { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

A formatter to write logs into.

Formatter implements the standard Write trait for writing log records. It also supports terminal colors, through the style method.

Examples

Use the writeln macro to format a log record. An instance of a Formatter is passed to an env_logger format as buf:

use std::io::Write;

let mut builder = env_logger::Builder::new();

builder.format(|buf, record| writeln!(buf, "{}: {}", record.level(), record.args()));

Implementations

Get a Timestamp for the current date and time in UTC.

Examples

Include the current timestamp with the log record:

use std::io::Write;

let mut builder = env_logger::Builder::new();

builder.format(|buf, record| {
    let ts = buf.timestamp();

    writeln!(buf, "{}: {}: {}", ts, record.level(), record.args())
});

Get a Timestamp for the current date and time in UTC with full second precision.

Get a Timestamp for the current date and time in UTC with millisecond precision.

Get a Timestamp for the current date and time in UTC with microsecond precision.

Get a Timestamp for the current date and time in UTC with nanosecond precision.

Begin a new Style.

Examples

Create a bold, red colored style and use it to print the log level:

use std::io::Write;
use env_logger::fmt::Color;

let mut builder = env_logger::Builder::new();

builder.format(|buf, record| {
    let mut level_style = buf.style();

    level_style.set_color(Color::Red).set_bold(true);

    writeln!(buf, "{}: {}",
        level_style.value(record.level()),
        record.args())
});

Get the default Style for the given level.

The style can be used to print other values besides the level.

Get a printable Style for the given level.

The style can only be used to print the level.
