spdlog

Very fast, header only, C++ logging library.

Install

Just copy the files to your build tree and use a C++11 compiler

Tested on:

  • gcc 4.8.1 and above
  • clang 3.5
  • visual studio 2013

##Features

  • Very fast - performance is the primary goal
  • Headers only
  • No dependencies
  • Cross platform - Linux / Windows on 32/64 bits
  • Mult/Single threaded loggers
  • Rotating log files
  • Daily log files
  • Console logging
  • Optional async logging
  • Logging levels
  • Custom formatting with user defined patterns

Benchmarks

Here are some benchmarks (Ubuntu 64 bits, Intel i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz)

## Usage Example

#include #include "spdlog/spdlog.h"

int main(int, char* []) { namespace spd = spdlog;

try
{
    std::string filename = "spdlog_example";
    auto console = spd::stdout_logger_mt("console");
    console->info("Welcome to spdlog!") ;
    console->info() << "Creating file " << filename << "..";

    auto file_logger = spd::rotating_logger_mt("file_logger", filename, 1024 * 1024 * 5, 3);
    file_logger->info("Log file message number", 1);

    for (int i = 0; i < 100; ++i)
    {
        auto square = i*i;
        file_logger->info() << i << '*' << i << '=' << square << " (" << "0x" << std::hex << square << ")";
    }

    // Change log level to all loggers to warning and above
    spd::set_level(spd::level::WARN);
    console->info("This should not be displayed");
    console->warn("This should!");
    spd::set_level(spd::level::INFO);

    // Change format pattern to all loggers
    spd::set_pattern(" **** %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%e %l **** %v");
    spd::get("console")->info("This is another message with different format");
}
catch (const spd::spdlog_ex& ex)
{
    std::cout << "Log failed: " << ex.what() << std::endl;
}
return 0;
