module Yell #:nodoc:
module Adapters #:nodoc:
# This class provides the basic interface for all allowed operations on any
# adapter implementation. Other adapters should inherit from it for the methods
# used by the {Yell::Logger}.
#
# Writing your own adapter is really simple. Inherit from the base class and use
# the `setup`, `write` and `close` methods. Yell requires the `write` method to be
# specified (`setup` and `close` are optional).
#
#
# The following example shows how to define a basic Adapter to format and print
# log events to STDOUT:
#
# class PutsAdapter < Yell::Adapters::Base
# include Yell::Formatter::Helpers
#
# setup do |options|
# self.format = options[:format]
# end
#
# write do |event|
# message = format.call(event)
#
# STDOUT.puts message
# end
# end
#
#
# After the Adapter has been written, we need to register it to Yell:
#
# Yell::Adapters.register :puts, PutsAdapter
#
# Now, we can use it like so:
#
# logger = Yell.new :puts
# logger.info "Hello World!"
class Base < Monitor
include Yell::Helpers::Base

class << self
# Setup your adapter with this helper method.
#
# @example
# setup do |options|
# @file_handle = File.new( '/dev/null', 'w' )
# end
def setup( &block )
compile!(:setup!, &block)
end
# Define your write method with this helper.
#
# @example Printing messages to file
# write do |event|
# @file_handle.puts event.message
# end
def write( &block )
compile!(:write!, &block)
end
# Define your open method with this helper.
#
# @example Open a file handle
# open do
# @stream = ::File.open( 'test.log', ::File::WRONLY|::File::APPEND|::File::CREAT )
# end
def open( &block )
compile!(:open!, &block)
end
# Define your close method with this helper.
#
# @example Closing a file handle
# close do
# @stream.close
# end
def close( &block )
compile!(:close!, &block)
end

# Pretty funky code block, I know but here is what it basically does:
#
# @example
# compile! :write! do |event|
# puts event.message
# end

#
# def write!( event )
# puts event.method
# super
# end
def compile!( name, &block )
# Get the already defined method
m = instance_method( name )
# Create a new method with leading underscore
define_method("_#{name}", &block)
_m = instance_method("_#{name}")
remove_method("_#{name}")
# Define instance method
define!(name, _m, m, &block)
end
# Define instance method by given name and call the unbound
# methods in order with provided block.
