A simple log system for your programs. Like those in real developing, it supports console and file logging. But it also supports send log messages via Rednet with wired/wireless modem, so that you can check if your mining turtle is working well from thouthands blocks away, or build a monitor center to watch all of your computers, etc.

How to use:

Download log4cc by running this:

wget run https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/2249573/raw/main/get_log4cc.lua
Then include the module:

local log4cc = require "lib.log4cc"
Use log4cc.info(), log4cc.warn(), log4cc.error() and log4cc.debug() to write log:

log4cc.info("Hello log4cc!")
You can also edit config to enable file and remote logging:

log4cc.config.file.enabled = true
log4cc.config.file.fileName = "log.txt" -- save log into log.txt
log4cc.config.remote.enabled = true
log4cc.config.remote.targetID = {3,5} -- let computer #3 and #5 receive log
Why log4cc:

• Written in pure ASCII Lua
• Allow custom log format
• Remote log send and receive(use rednet.receive(), or receiver program provided)
• Load config from file
• No JNDI security bugs

Todo:

• Remote log encrypting
• Async logging in multitask to reduce lag

Why not Pastebin and GitHub:
These two websites are a little difficult to visit in China, so I choose pure GitLab deploying to improve the access speed.

Worked good, but it would be cool if it used colors when it logged to a terminal.
For example:
[WARN] This is a warning
[ERROR] This is a error
[DEBUG] This is a debug
