Timber

This is a logger with a small, extensible API which provides utility on top of Android's normal Log class.

I copy this class into all the little apps I make. I'm tired of doing it. Now it's a library.

Behavior is added through Tree instances. You can install an instance by calling Timber.plant. Installation of Trees should be done as early as possible. The onCreate of your application is the most logical choice.

The DebugTree implementation will automatically figure out from which class it's being called and use that class name as its tag. Since the tags vary, it works really well when coupled with a log reader like Pidcat.

There are no Tree implementations installed by default because every time you log in production, a puppy dies.

Usage

Two easy steps:

  1. Install any Tree instances you want in the onCreate of your application class.
  2. Call Timber's static methods everywhere throughout your app.

Check out the sample app in timber-sample/ to see it in action.

Lint

Timber ships with embedded lint rules to detect problems in your app.
