zopyx.plone.persistentlogger
============================

``zopyx.plone.persistentlogger`` supports persistent logging where
the log data is stored on an arbitrary persistent Plone object.
Typical usecases are application specific logging e.g. for logging 
a history per content object directly in Plone rather then having
a huge common log on the filesystem. The log entries are stored
using object annotations.

Usage::

    from zopyx.plone.persistentlogger import IPersistentLogger

    def do_something(...):

        # ``context`` represents the current context object
        
        adapter = IPersistentLogger(context)
        adapter.log(u'this is a logging message')
        adapter.log(u'this is an error message', level='error')
        adapter.log(u'this is an error message', level='error', details='....')

``details`` can be either a string or a Python datastructure like a dict, a
list or a tuple. The logger will convert non-string data using the ``pprint``
module of Python into a nicely readable string.

The logs can be view through-the-web through the URL http://host/path/to/object/@@persistent-log .
The logs can be clear using the URL http://host/path/to/object/@@persistent-log-clear.
Both URLs require the permission of modify the related object.

All logs can be searched, sorted and filtered individually based on the Datatables.net
implementation.
