Functions

log.Debug

log.Debug(...)

Writes a log at the debug level.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description / Requirements
...	Any Lua value	Optional; any number of log values, concatenated in order

Return Values

No return values.

Argument Conversion

Accepts no arguments, nil, "", {}, and empty slices. Arguments are converted to text and concatenated in order, without automatically inserting spaces or separators.

• error values are converted to their error messages first.
• Other values with a function-valued __tostring use that conversion; exceptions it raises propagate to the caller.
• Remaining values use their default string representation. nil becomes "nil", and empty strings add no text. Tables and slices are not expanded into element lists.

Output Conditions

Logs are prefixed with the calling script's filename. Whether they are written depends on log.loglevel. For example, at warning, Debug and Info produce no output and do not invoke their arguments' __tostring conversions.

None of the four functions returns err. Assigning a call to a variable gives nil, which cannot be used to determine whether a log was successfully written.

Example

log.Info("Query domain: ", domain)
log.Warning("Upstream query failed: ", err)

log.Info

Same as above.

log.Warning

Same as above.

log.Error

Same as above.
