Logging

Koin has a simple logging API to log any Koin activity (allocation, lookup ...). The logging API is represented by the class below:

Koin Logger

abstract class Logger(var level: Level = Level.INFO) {

    abstract fun log(level: Level, msg: MESSAGE)

    fun debug(msg: MESSAGE) {
        log(Level.DEBUG, msg)
    }

    fun info(msg: MESSAGE) {
        log(Level.INFO, msg)
    }

    fun error(msg: MESSAGE) {
        log(Level.ERROR, msg)
    }
}

Koin proposes some implementation of logging, in function of the target platform:

PrintLogger - directly log into console (included in koin-core)
EmptyLogger - log nothing (included in koin-core)
SLF4JLogger - Log with SLF4J. Used by ktor and spark (koin-logger-slf4j project)
AndroidLogger - log into Android Logger (included in koin-android)

Set logging at start

By default, By default Koin use the EmptyLogger. You can use directly the PrintLogger as following:

startKoin{
    logger(LEVEL.INFO)
}
