Spy is a flexible, lightweight, multiplatform logging utility written in pure Swift. It allows to log on different levels and channels which you can define on your own depending on your needs.

## Requirements

### Development
Project uses following tools for development
1. [XCodeGen](https://github.com/yonaskolb/XcodeGen)
2. [Cocoapods](https://cocoapods.org)
3. [SwiftLint](https://github.com/realm/SwiftLint)
4. [Sourcery](https://github.com/krzysztofzablocki/Sourcery)

## Installation

To get started with the **Spy** you first have to decide how you will integrate it with your project. Spy supports following tools:

### Cocoapods

To install Spy using Cocoapods go through following steps:

1. Add the following entry in your **Podfile**:
```
pod 'Spy'
```
2. Then run `pod install`.

### Carthage

To install Spy using Carthage go through following steps:

1. Add the following entry to your **Cartfile**

```
github "appunite/Spy"
```

2. Then run ```carthage update```

### Swift Package Manager

To install Spy using **Swift Package Manager** go through following steps:

1. Add following package dependency in you **Package.swift** ``` .package(url: "https://github.com/appunite/Spy.git", from: "0.5.0") ```
2. Add following target dependency in your **Package.swift** ``` dependencies: ["Spy"]) ```

For instance this is how it might look like:
```swift
import PackageDescription

let package = Package(
name: "YourLibrary",
products: [
.library(
name: "YourLibrary",
targets: ["YourLibrary"])
],
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/appunite/Spy.git", from: "0.5.0")
],
targets: [
.target(
name: "YourLibrary",
dependencies: ["Spy"])
]
)
```

## Overview

Here is a quick overview of functionalities and concepts used in **Spy**.

### SpyChannel

SpyChannel is anything that implements *PSpyChannel* protocol. Channels can be used to categorize logs. Typically they are implemented with an enum. You can define your own channels as follows:
```swift
public enum SpyChannel: String, PSpyChannel {
case foo
case bar

public var channelName: String {
return self.rawValue
}
}
```

### SpyLevel
SpyLevel is anything that implements *PSpyLevel* protocol. You can define your own levels, but Spy commes with one set defined for you so you can use it if you want. This set is called *SpyLevel* and contains following alert levels: *finest, finer, fine, config, info, warning, severe* sorted by the increasing alert priority.

### SpyConfiguration
Contains levels and channels that the Spy will spy on.

### SpyConfigurationBuilder
Builds your spy configuration by providing add and remove functions for both levels and channels.
Example usage:
```swift
SpyConfigurationBuilder()
.add(level: .severe)
.add(channels: [.foo, .bar])
.build()
```

### Spyable
Spyable is a entity that can be logged. It has to implement *PSpyable* protocol. You can define your own spyables or use string as a basic one.

### Spied
Spied is a property wrapper that allows to log all changes and accesses to a property. Example usage:
```swift
class Foo {
@Spied(spy: Environment.spy, onLevel: .info, onChannel: .foo) var foo = "foo"
}
```

### Spy
Spy is anything that implements *PSpy* protocol. There are a few spies already defined for you:
- *ConsoleSpy* - spy that logs spyables by using print command
- *FileSpy* - spy that logs spyables into the filesystem (allows to create *monolith* or *chunked* logs)
- *CompositeSpy* - spy that groups multiple spies into one
- *AnySpy* - type-erased spy - every spy can be converted to AnySpy

Logging is performed with **log** method as follows:
```swift
spy.log(level: .severe, channel: .foo, message: "Something bad happened")
```

#### ConsoleSpy
ConsoleSpy comes with two available output formatters **RawSpyFormatter** and **DecoratedSpyFormatter** with the later being extendable with decorators. You can always define your own output formatter.
Example output for *RawSpyFormatter* will look like:
```
info::foo::Hello Spy
```
And example output for *DecoratedSpyFormatter* may look like:
```
ℹ️ info::foo::Hello Spy
```


Log example

## Example
This is an example definition of the spies.
It utilizes *CompositeSpy* to allow you to log onto multiple destinations (*Console* and *File*).
```swift
public static var spy: AnySpy = {
return CompositeSpy()
.add(spy: ConsoleSpy(
spyFormatter: DecoratedSpyFormatter(
levelNameBuilder: DecoratedLevelNameBuilder()
.add(decorator: EmojiPrefixedSpyLevelNameDecorator().any())
),
timestampProvider: CurrentTimestampProvider(),
configuration: SpyConfigurationBuilder()
.add(levels: SpyLevel.levelsFrom(loggingLevel))
.add(channel: .foo)
.build()).any())
.add(spy: FileSpy(
logFile: LogFile(
type: .chunked(maxLogsPerFile: 3),
directoryURL: logDirectoryURL),
spyFormatter: DecoratedSpyFormatter(
levelNameBuilder: DecoratedLevelNameBuilder()
.add(decorator: EmojiPrefixedSpyLevelNameDecorator().any())
),
timestampProvider: CurrentTimestampProvider(),
configuration: SpyConfigurationBuilder()
.add(level: .severe)
.add(channels: [.foo, .bar])
.build()).safe().any()
).any()
}()
```
By using preprocessor we can define different logging levels for debug and release. That way we won't forget about switching off unimportant logs before release.
```swift
public extension Environment {
static var loggingLevel: SpyLevel {
#if DEBUG
return .info
#else
return .warning
#endif
}
}
```

And here is how you could use Spy:
```swift
Environment.spy.log(level: .info, channel: .foo, message: "Hello Spy")
```
