README.md

rolling-file

A rolling file appender with customizable rolling conditions. Includes built-in support for rolling conditions on date/time (daily, hourly, every minute) and/or size.

Follows a Debian-style naming convention for logfiles, using basename, basename.1, ..., basename.N where N is the maximum number of allowed historical logfiles.

This is useful to combine with the tracing crate and tracing_appender::non_blocking::NonBlocking -- use it as an alternative to tracing_appender::rolling::RollingFileAppender.

Examples

use rolling_file::*;
let file_appender = BasicRollingFileAppender::new(
    "/var/log/myprogram",
    RollingConditionBasic::new().daily(),
    9
).unwrap();

Development

Must pass latest stable clippy, be formatted with nightly rustfmt, and pass unit tests:

cargo +nightly fmt
cargo clippy --all-targets
cargo test
