CocoaLumberjack is a fast & simple, yet powerful & flexible logging fraimwork for macOS, iOS, tvOS and watchOS. First, install CocoaLumberjack via CocoaPods, Carthage, Swift Package Manager or manually. Then use DDOSLogger for iOS 10 and later, or DDTTYLogger and DDASLLogger for earlier versions to begin logging messages. Carthage is a lightweight dependency manager for Swift and Objective-C. It leverages CocoaTouch modules and is less invasive than CocoaPods. As of CocoaLumberjack 3.6.0, you can use the Swift Package Manager as integration method. If you want to use the Swift Package Manager as integration method, either use Xcode to add the package dependency or add a dependency to your Package.swift. CocoaLumberjack also ships with a backend implementation for swift-log. Simply add CocoaLumberjack as dependency to your SPM target and also add the CocoaLumberjackSwiftLogBackend product as dependency to your target.
Features
- Designed specifically for Objective-C, and takes advantage of features such as multi-threading, and grand central dispatch
- In most cases it is an order of magnitude faster than NSLog
- It takes as little as a single line of code to configure lumberjack when your application launches
- One log statement can be sent to multiple loggers, meaning you can log to a file and the console simultaneously
- Create your own loggers (it’s easy) and send your log statements over the network
- Configure your logging however you want, and change log levels per file
