Acme::Ghost::Log - Simple logger

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Acme::Ghost::Log;

    my $log = Acme::Ghost::Log->new();
       $log->error("My test error message to syslog")

    # Using file
    my $log = Acme::Ghost::Log->new(file => '/tmp/test.log');
       $log->error("My test error message to /tmp/test.log")

    # Customize minimum log level
    my $log = Acme::Ghost::Log->new(level => 'warn');

    # Log messages
    $log->trace('Doing stuff');
    $log->debug('Not sure what is happening here');
    $log->info('FYI: it happened again');
    $log->warn('This might be a problem');
    $log->error('Garden variety error');
    $log->fatal('Boom');

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Acme::Ghost::Log is a simple logger for Acme::Ghost logging after daemonization

=head2 new

    my $log = Acme::Ghost::Log->new(
        logopt      => 'ndelay,pid',
        facility    => 'user',
        level       => 'debug',
        ident       => 'test.pl',
    );

With default attributes

    use Mojo::Log;
    my $log = Acme::Ghost::Log->new( logger => Mojo::Log->new );
    $log->error("Test error message");

This is example with external loggers

=head1 ATTRIBUTES

This class implements the following attributes

=head2 facility

This attribute sets facility for logging

Available standard facilities: C<auth>, C<authpriv>, C<cron>, C<daemon>, C<ftp>,
C<kern>, C<local0>, C<local1>, C<local2>, C<local3>, C<local4>, C<local5>, C<local6>,
C<local7>, C<lpr>, C<mail>, C<news>, C<syslog>, C<user> and C<uucp>

Default: C<user> (Sys::Syslog::LOG_USER)

See also L<Sys::Syslog/Facilities>

=head2 file

Log file path used by "handle"

=head2 handle

Log filehandle, defaults to opening "file" or uses syslog if file not specified

=head2 ident

The B<ident> is prepended to every message

Default: script name C<basename($0)>

=head2 level

There are six predefined log levels: C<fatal>, C<error>, C<warn>, C<info>, C<debug>, and C<trace> (in descending priority).
The syslog supports followed additional log levels: C<emerg>, C<alert>, C<crit'> and C<notice> (in descending priority).
But we recommend not using them to maintain compatibility.
Your configured logging level has to at least match the priority of the logging message.

If your configured logging level is C<warn>, then messages logged with info(), debug(), and trace()
will be suppressed; fatal(), error() and warn() will make their way through, because their
priority is higher or equal than the configured setting.

Default: C<debug>

See also L<Sys::Syslog/Levels>

=head2 logger

This attribute perfoms to set predefined logger, eg. Mojo::Log

Default: C<undef>

=head2 logopt

This attribute contains zero or more of the options detailed in L<Sys::Syslog/openlog>

Default: C<'ndelay,pid'>
