The cyborg::Logger class provides thread-safe logging capabilities for CyborgDB C++ operations. It follows a singleton pattern, allowing you to configure and access the same logger instance across your application.

​
Configure Logger

void Configure(LogLevel level, 
               bool to_file, 
               const std::string& file_path = "");
Configures the logger with the specified log level and output options.

​
Parameters

ParameterTypeDefaultDescription
levelLogLevel-Log level enum value: LogLevel::Debug, LogLevel::Info, LogLevel::Warning, LogLevel::Error, or LogLevel::Critical.
to_filebool-Whether to write logs to a file instead of stdout/stderr.
file_pathconst std::string&""(Optional) Path to the log file. Only used when to_file is true.

​
Exceptions

  • If the file cannot be opened, logs will be written to standard output instead, and an error message will be printed to std::cerr.

​
Example Usage

// Get the logger instance
cyborg::Logger& logger = cyborg::Logger::Instance();

// Configure logger to write INFO level logs to console
logger.Configure(LogLevel::Info, false);

// Configure logger to write ERROR level logs to a file
logger.Configure(LogLevel::Error, true, "/path/to/logs/cyborgdb.log");
The Debug level is only available in debug builds of the library (compiled with the DEBUG flag).
