Catalyst is a software that allows developers to use Log::Log4perl to implement logging functionality. This feature enables them to track and troubleshoot issues within their applications.
Catalyst::Log::Log4perl is a Perl module that provides an implementation of Catalyst::Log. The module utilizes Log::Log4perl as the underlying log mechanism. The package provides all the methods of Catalyst::Log, with the exception of enable, disable and levels. These methods return zero and do not offer any additional functionality because of the availability of similar functionality in Log::Log4perl.
When calling any of these methods, Cataylst::Log::Log4perl will automatically generate and instantiate a logger with the component set to the package that called it. For instance, if a user is in the MyApp::C::Main package, then calling a method would lead to an output in the Myapp.C.Main Log::Log4perl component.
To use this module, the user should include "use Catalyst::Log::Log4perl" in the MyApp.pm file. A custom logger object should then be created for catalyst to utilize. If no arguments are provided to new, the logger will work as the default catalyst-logger. However, to gain the full advantage of Log4perl, it is advisable to use the configuration. The user can try using the example.conf file in the distribution alongside the README and Changes.
Finally, the user can call "$c->log->debug("This is using log4perl!");" to test the Log4perl logger.
