Build-library-logger

Build a LibraryLogger[RuntimeSink] from LoggerConfig. This facade keeps a smaller library-oriented sync surface while still using config-driven runtime assembly underneath.

Interface

pub fn build_library_logger(config : LoggerConfig) -> LibraryLogger[RuntimeSink] {

input

• config : LoggerConfig - Fully assembled sync logger config.

output

• LibraryLogger[RuntimeSink] - Library-facing logger wrapper over the configured runtime sink.

Explanation

Detailed rules explaining key parameters and behaviors

• This API builds a configured runtime logger first and then wraps it as LibraryLogger.
• The facade intentionally exposes a smaller logging surface than the full configured runtime logger.
• Call to_logger() if a caller must recover the underlying full logger object.

How to Use

Here are some specific examples provided.

When Need A Smaller Library-facing Logging Type

When package code should accept or produce a narrower logger facade:

let logger = build_library_logger(
  LoggerConfig::new(target="lib", sink=SinkConfig::new(kind=SinkKind::Console)),
)

In this example, the logger is built from config and then narrowed to the library facade.

Error Case

e.g.:

• If backend-specific sink limitations exist, they still apply after the facade is built.

• If code later needs methods outside the library facade, it must unwrap with to_logger().

Notes

1. Prefer this facade when library APIs should not expose the full configured runtime logger type.

2. Use parse_and_build_library_logger(...) when starting from JSON text.
