Fast C++ logging library.
2a7fc9e30e
clang on windows support both gcc and mscv style options. Clang.exe on windows defaults to gcc style, which will result in /WX unknown compiler command. This will set /WX if and only if the compiler is MSVC and greater than version 1900 |

spdlog
Very fast, header-only/compiled, C++ logging library.
Install
Header only version
Copy the source folder to your build tree and use a C++11 compiler.
Static lib version (recommended - much faster compile times)
$ git clone https://github.com/gabime/spdlog.git
$ cd spdlog && mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake .. && make -j
see example CMakeLists.txt on how to use.
Platforms
- Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, AIX
- Windows (msvc 2013+, cygwin)
- macOS (clang 3.5+)
- Android
Package managers:
- Homebrew:
brew install spdlog
- MacPorts:
sudo port install spdlog
- FreeBSD:
cd /usr/ports/devel/spdlog/ && make install clean
- Fedora:
yum install spdlog
- Gentoo:
emerge dev-libs/spdlog
- Arch Linux:
pacman -S spdlog
- vcpkg:
vcpkg install spdlog
- conan:
spdlog/[>=1.4.1]
- conda:
conda install -c conda-forge spdlog
Features
- Very fast (see benchmarks below).
- Headers only or compiled version
- Feature rich formatting, using the excellent fmt library.
- New! Backtrace support - store debug messages in a ring buffer and display later on demand.
- Asynchronous mode (optional)
- Custom formatting.
- Multi/Single threaded loggers.
- Various log targets:
- Rotating log files.
- Daily log files.
- Console logging (colors supported).
- syslog.
- Windows debugger (
OutputDebugString(..)
) - Easily extendable with custom log targets (just implement a single function in the sink interface).
- Log filtering - log levels can be modified in runtime as well as in compile time.
- Support for loading log levels from argv or from environment var.
Usage samples
Basic usage
#include "spdlog/spdlog.h"
#include "spdlog/sinks/basic_file_sink.h"
int main()
{
spdlog::info("Welcome to spdlog!");
spdlog::error("Some error message with arg: {}", 1);
spdlog::warn("Easy padding in numbers like {:08d}", 12);
spdlog::critical("Support for int: {0:d}; hex: {0:x}; oct: {0:o}; bin: {0:b}", 42);
spdlog::info("Support for floats {:03.2f}", 1.23456);
spdlog::info("Positional args are {1} {0}..", "too", "supported");
spdlog::info("{:<30}", "left aligned");
spdlog::set_level(spdlog::level::debug); // Set global log level to debug
spdlog::debug("This message should be displayed..");
// change log pattern
spdlog::set_pattern("[%H:%M:%S %z] [%n] [%^---%L---%$] [thread %t] %v");
// Compile time log levels
// define SPDLOG_ACTIVE_LEVEL to desired level
SPDLOG_TRACE("Some trace message with param {}", 42);
SPDLOG_DEBUG("Some debug message");
// Set the default logger to file logger
auto file_logger = spdlog::basic_logger_mt("basic_logger", "logs/basic.txt");
spdlog::set_default_logger(file_logger);
}
Load log levels from env variable or from argv
#include "spdlog/cfg/env.h"
void load_levels_example()
{
// Set the log level to "info" and mylogger to to "trace":
// SPDLOG_LEVEL=info,mylogger=trace && ./example
spdlog::cfg::load_env_levels();
// or from command line:
// ./example SPDLOG_LEVEL=info,mylogger=trace
// #include "spdlog/cfg/argv.h" // for loading levels from argv
// spdlog::cfg::load_argv_levels(args, argv);
}
Create stdout/stderr logger object
#include "spdlog/spdlog.h"
#include "spdlog/sinks/stdout_color_sinks.h"
void stdout_example()
{
// create color multi threaded logger
auto console = spdlog::stdout_color_mt("console");
auto err_logger = spdlog::stderr_color_mt("stderr");
spdlog::get("console")->info("loggers can be retrieved from a global registry using the spdlog::get(logger_name)");
}
Basic file logger
#include "spdlog/sinks/basic_file_sink.h"
void basic_logfile_example()
{
try
{
auto my_logger = spdlog::basic_logger_mt("basic_logger", "logs/basic-log.txt");
}
catch (const spdlog::spdlog_ex &ex)
{
std::cout << "Log init failed: " << ex.what() << std::endl;
}
}
Rotating files
#include "spdlog/sinks/rotating_file_sink.h"
void rotating_example()
{
// Create a file rotating logger with 5mb size max and 3 rotated files
auto rotating_logger = spdlog::rotating_logger_mt("some_logger_name", "logs/rotating.txt", 1048576 * 5, 3);
}
Daily files
#include "spdlog/sinks/daily_file_sink.h"
void daily_example()
{
// Create a daily logger - a new file is created every day on 2:30am
auto daily_logger = spdlog::daily_logger_mt("daily_logger", "logs/daily.txt", 2, 30);
}
Backtrace support
// Loggers can store in a ring buffer all messages (including debug/trace) and display later on demand.
// When needed, call dump_backtrace() to see them
spdlog::enable_backtrace(32); // create ring buffer with capacity of 32 messages
// or my_logger->enable_backtrace(32)..
for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
spdlog::debug("Backtrace message {}", i); // not logged yet..
}
// e.g. if some error happened:
spdlog::dump_backtrace(); // log them now! show the last 32 messages
// or my_logger->dump_backtrace(32)..
Periodic flush
// periodically flush all *registered* loggers every 3 seconds:
// warning: only use if all your loggers are thread safe ("_mt" loggers)
spdlog::flush_every(std::chrono::seconds(3));
Log binary data in hex
// many types of std::container<char> types can be used.
// ranges are supported too.
// format flags:
// {:X} - print in uppercase.
// {:s} - don't separate each byte with space.
// {:p} - don't print the position on each line start.
// {:n} - don't split the output to lines.
#include "spdlog/fmt/bin_to_hex.h"
void binary_example()
{
auto console = spdlog::get("console");
std::array<char, 80> buf;
console->info("Binary example: {}", spdlog::to_hex(buf));
console->info("Another binary example:{:n}", spdlog::to_hex(std::begin(buf), std::begin(buf) + 10));
// more examples:
// logger->info("uppercase: {:X}", spdlog::to_hex(buf));
// logger->info("uppercase, no delimiters: {:Xs}", spdlog::to_hex(buf));
// logger->info("uppercase, no delimiters, no position info: {:Xsp}", spdlog::to_hex(buf));
}
Logger with multi sinks - each with different format and log level
// create logger with 2 targets with different log levels and formats.
// the console will show only warnings or errors, while the file will log all.
void multi_sink_example()
{
auto console_sink = std::make_shared<spdlog::sinks::stdout_color_sink_mt>();
console_sink->set_level(spdlog::level::warn);
console_sink->set_pattern("[multi_sink_example] [%^%l%$] %v");
auto file_sink = std::make_shared<spdlog::sinks::basic_file_sink_mt>("logs/multisink.txt", true);
file_sink->set_level(spdlog::level::trace);
spdlog::logger logger("multi_sink", {console_sink, file_sink});
logger.set_level(spdlog::level::debug);
logger.warn("this should appear in both console and file");
logger.info("this message should not appear in the console, only in the file");
}
Asynchronous logging
#include "spdlog/async.h"
#include "spdlog/sinks/basic_file_sink.h"
void async_example()
{
// default thread pool settings can be modified *before* creating the async logger:
// spdlog::init_thread_pool(8192, 1); // queue with 8k items and 1 backing thread.
auto async_file = spdlog::basic_logger_mt<spdlog::async_factory>("async_file_logger", "logs/async_log.txt");
// alternatively:
// auto async_file = spdlog::create_async<spdlog::sinks::basic_file_sink_mt>("async_file_logger", "logs/async_log.txt");
}
Asynchronous logger with multi sinks
#include "spdlog/sinks/stdout_color_sinks.h"
#include "spdlog/sinks/rotating_file_sink.h"
void multi_sink_example2()
{
spdlog::init_thread_pool(8192, 1);
auto stdout_sink = std::make_shared<spdlog::sinks::stdout_color_sink_mt >();
auto rotating_sink = std::make_shared<spdlog::sinks::rotating_file_sink_mt>("mylog.txt", 1024*1024*10, 3);
std::vector<spdlog::sink_ptr> sinks {stdout_sink, rotating_sink};
auto logger = std::make_shared<spdlog::async_logger>("loggername", sinks.begin(), sinks.end(), spdlog::thread_pool(), spdlog::async_overflow_policy::block);
spdlog::register_logger(logger);
}
User defined types
// user defined types logging by implementing operator<<
#include "spdlog/fmt/ostr.h" // must be included
struct my_type
{
int i;
template<typename OStream>
friend OStream &operator<<(OStream &os, const my_type &c)
{
return os << "[my_type i=" << c.i << "]";
}
};
void user_defined_example()
{
spdlog::get("console")->info("user defined type: {}", my_type{14});
}
User defined flags in the log pattern
// Log patterns can contain custom flags.
// the following example will add new flag '%*' - which will be bound to a <my_formatter_flag> instance.
#include "spdlog/pattern_formatter.h"
class my_formatter_flag : public spdlog::custom_flag_formatter
{
public:
void format(const spdlog::details::log_msg &, const std::tm &, spdlog::memory_buf_t &dest) override
{
std::string some_txt = "custom-flag";
dest.append(some_txt.data(), some_txt.data() + some_txt.size());
}
std::unique_ptr<custom_flag_formatter> clone() const override
{
return spdlog::details::make_unique<my_formatter_flag>();
}
};
void custom_flags_example()
{
auto formatter = std::make_unique<spdlog::pattern_formatter>();
formatter->add_flag<my_formatter_flag>('*').set_pattern("[%n] [%*] [%^%l%$] %v");
spdlog::set_formatter(std::move(formatter));
}
Custom error handler
void err_handler_example()
{
// can be set globally or per logger(logger->set_error_handler(..))
spdlog::set_error_handler([](const std::string &msg) { spdlog::get("console")->error("*** LOGGER ERROR ***: {}", msg); });
spdlog::get("console")->info("some invalid message to trigger an error {}{}{}{}", 3);
}
syslog
#include "spdlog/sinks/syslog_sink.h"
void syslog_example()
{
std::string ident = "spdlog-example";
auto syslog_logger = spdlog::syslog_logger_mt("syslog", ident, LOG_PID);
syslog_logger->warn("This is warning that will end up in syslog.");
}
Android example
#include "spdlog/sinks/android_sink.h"
void android_example()
{
std::string tag = "spdlog-android";
auto android_logger = spdlog::android_logger_mt("android", tag);
android_logger->critical("Use \"adb shell logcat\" to view this message.");
}
