Logger - Taffer's Components

Emit BBCode-formatted log entry signals.

The Logger produces signals containing BBCode-formatted log entries. Use these in a RichTextLabel or dump them to the console, etc.

Sorry Americans, this is using Canadian spelling, so you'll have to add "u" to your colours.

Using Logger

1. Create a Logger instance in your tree:
   • Right-click a node and choose "Instantiate Child Scene" (or press Ctrl+Shift+A).
   • Choose addons/taffer_logger/logger.tscn.
2. Use the Inspector to configure the instance.
3. Connect the log_entry signal to something. The log_entry signal comes with one argument, the BBCode-formatted log entry text.
4. When you call the Logger's info(), warning(), or error() functions, it'll generate a signal containing the BBCode-formatted log entry string.

Demo

In the demo folder, there's a simple project showing how you can use the Logger in your own games.

The demo has several nodes:

• A Logger, whose log_entry signal is connected to the root node's _on_logger_log_entry() function.
• Buttons, whose pressed signals are connected to the root node; when the root node handles these signals, it creates log entries by calling the Logger's functions.
• A RichTextLabel to display the log entries, which are also printed to the console.
