QorumLogs.enabled = false
QorumOnlineLogs.enabled = true
##Spot System Logs:
System logs are white (or black) after all, yours are not :)
##Installation
- If you don't have Alcatraz or XcodeColors installed, lets install them. Open up your terminal and paste this:
curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/supermarin/Alcatraz/master/Scripts/install.sh | sh
- Restart Xcode after the installation
- Alcatraz requires Xcode Command Line Tools, which can be installed in Xcode > Preferences > Downloads. (You might not need this in the latest Xcode version)
- In Xcode click Window > Package Manager, type in 'XcodeColors' in the search bar. Click Install.
- Restart Xcode after the installation
You can use Cocoapods to install QorumLogs
by adding it to your Podfile
:
platform :ios, '8.0' # platform :tvos, '9.0' (for tvOS)
use_frameworks!
pod 'QorumLogs' #Stable release for Swift 3.0
pod 'QorumLogs', :git => 'https://github.com/goktugyil/QorumLogs.git' #Latest release for Swift 3.0
pod 'QorumLogs', :git => 'https://github.com/goktugyil/QorumLogs.git', :branch => 'Swift2.3' #For Swift 2.3
pod 'QorumLogs', '~> 0.8' #For Swift 2.2
(Cocoapods forces you to import the framework in every file. If anyone has a solution or workaround, inform me please)
You can install QorumLogs
via Carthage by adding the following line to your Cartfile
:
github "goktugyil/QorumLogs"
Download and drop 'QorumLogs.swift' in your project.
- In your AppDelegate or anywhere else enter this: (If Cocoapods or Carthage you must add
import QorumLogs
)
QorumLogs.enabled = true
QorumLogs.test()
- You will see something this:
Congratulations!
##Log Storage in GoogleDocs (Optional, ~4 minutes) [Learn to integrate GoogleDocs](./Log To GoogleDocs.md)
##Detailed Features:
####Log Levels
Sets the minimum log level that is seen in the debug area:
- Debug - Detailed logs only used while debugging
- Info - General information about app state
- Warning - Indicates possible error
- Error - An unexpected error occured, its recoverable
QorumLogs.minimumLogLevelShown = 2
QorumOnlineLogs.minimumLogLevelShown = 4 // Its a good idea to have OnlineLog level a bit higher
QL1("mylog") // Doesn't show this level anywhere, because minimum level is 2
QL2("mylog") // Shows this only in debugger
QL3("mylog") // Shows this only in debugger
QL4("mylog") // Shows this in debugger and online logs
QL methods can print in both Debugger and Google Docs, depending on which is active.
####Hide Other Classes
You need to write the name of the actual file, you can do this by a string and also directly the class name can be appropriate if it is the same as the file name. Add the following code where you setup QorumLogs:
QorumLogs.onlyShowThisFile(MyAwesomeViewController)
QorumLogs.onlyShowThisFile("MyAwesomeViewController")
You do not need the extension of the file.
####Print Lines
QLPlusLine()
QL2("Text between line")
QLShortLine()
####Add Custom Colors
Add custom colors for Mac, iOS, tvOS:
QorumLogs.colorsForLogLevels[0] = QLColor(r: 255, g: 255, b: 0)
QorumLogs.colorsForLogLevels[1] = QLColor(red: 255, green: 20, blue: 147)
QL1("Mylog")
####OnlineLogs - User Information
QorumOnlineLogs.extraInformation["userId"] = "sfkoFvvbKgr"
QorumOnlineLogs.extraInformation["name"] = "Will Smith"
QL1("Will is awesome!")
QL5("Will rules!")
You only need to set the extraInformation one time.
