PrettyLogger

Quick and simple Rails logger that lets you output to a different log file for more controlled breakdowns of site visits.

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add pretty_logger

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install pretty_logger

Add before_action :pretty_logit to your ApplicationController. Now you have pretty logs getting output to log/custom_log.log

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

• Add a config that can be set in an initializer for accessing user and prettifying in logs
• Customize location of custom_log file
• Don't auto-hijack errors, should need to add that manually?
• Don't require Rails- should be able to include in a basic Ruby project just as easily

The gem is available as open source under the terms of the MIT License.
