$_configInitialized ¶ protected
Whether the config property has already been configured with defaults
Type
bool$_defaultConfig ¶ protected
Default config for this class
- levelsstring or array, levels the engine is interested in
- scopesstring or array, scopes the engine is interested in
- fileLog file name
- pathThe path to save logs on.
- sizeUsed to implement basic log file rotation. If log file size reaches specified size the existing file is renamed by appending timestamp to filename and new log file is created. Can be integer bytes value or human readable string values like '10MB', '100KB' etc.
- rotateLog files are rotated specified times before being removed. If value is 0, old versions are removed rather then rotated.
- maskA mask is applied when log files are created. Left empty no chmod is made.
