Log levels

The SOSLS provides five log levels: Error, Warning, Info, Verbose, Diagnostic

Crash

In addition to the five levels mentioned above, some implementations might implement a Crash level if the language/platform itself does not implement such a feature itself (for example a native crash reporter).

Placeholders

Every logger implementing the SOSLS must have support for these placeholders:

Placeholder     Description                Required?
%time% Current UTC time REQUIRED
%time_runtime% Runtime (in milliseconds) OPTIONAL
%color% Log level color REQUIRED
%level% Log level REQUIRED
%message% Log message REQUIRED
%source% The calling file REQUIRED
%function% The calling function OPTIONAL
%line% The calling line OPTIONAL

Format

One of these two formats must be the default:

FORMAT 1 - %line% is implemented
"%color%[%time%] [%level% %source%:%line%] %message%"

FORMAT 2 - %line% is not implemented
"%color%[%time%] [%level %source%] %message%"

Configuration

A SOSLS-implementing logger must be configurable with support for changing the log level (enum), the log format (string) aswell as displaying color (boolean, should replace %color% with "" if false).
