SYNOPSIS

 use Log::Dispatch::FileWriteRotate;

 my $file = Log::Dispatch::FileWriteRotate(
     min_level => 'info',

     # will be passed to File::Write::Rotate
     dir       => '/var/log',
     prefix    => 'myapp',
     suffix    => '.log',
     period    => 'monthly',

     histories => 12,
 );

 $file->log(level => 'info', message => "Your comment\n");

DESCRIPTION

This module functions similarly to Log::Dispatch::FileRotate, but uses File::Write::Rotate as backend, thus interoperates more easily with other modules which use File::Write::Rotate as backend, e.g. Tie::Handle::FileWriteRotate or Process::Govern.

METHODS

new(%args)

Constructor. This method takes a hash of parameters. The following options are valid: min_level and max_level (see Log::Dispatch documentation); dir, prefix, suffix, period, size, and histories (see File::Write::Rotate).

log_message(message => STR)

Send a message to the appropriate output. Generally this shouldn't be called directly but should be called through the log() method (in LLog::Dispatch::Output>).
