# Simple colored logger for rust #

The `colog` library is a simple formatter backend for the standard

rust logging system (in the `log` crate).

## Getting started ##

```rust

use log::{error, warn, info, debug, trace};

fn main() {

    // Quick start: use default initialization

    colog::init();

    error!("error message");

    error!("error with fmt: {}", 42);

    warn!("warn message");

    info!("info message");

    debug!("debug message");

    trace!("trace message");

    info!("multi line demonstration\nhere");

    info!("more\nmulti\nline\nhere\nhere");

}

```

This results in the following terminal output:

## Custom styling ##

It's possible to override all colors and styles of `colog`.

See the following examples:

 - [examples/custom-level-colors.rs](examples/custom-level-colors.rs)

 - [examples/custom-level-tokens.rs](examples/custom-level-tokens.rs)

 - [examples/custom-level-prefix.rs](examples/custom-level-prefix.rs)

Also be sure to read the documentation (`cargo doc --open`) for a detailed description.
