Add logging system and debug output #47

Open derickson2402 opened 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When testing stuff, usually I put in ad hoc print statements to the system log for debugging. This works decently but isn't very clean and is frustrating.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be cool to have a logging framework and some easy way to export values from the robot, so then we can make graphs and stuff afterwards or even just have a value print to the dashboard.

Describe alternatives you've considered There are dashboard panels for testing the robot, but they only show current values rather than graphs. The built in graphs on the dashboard might be a great way for testing.

It looks like there is a built-in logging on the RoboRIO, so we would just need a way to add any extra data that we want.

Backlogging this issue for now
