Extend sli4j

Exigent users that have the need to integrate not already supported logging framework, can easily do it by following the listed steps:

  1. add the core dependency in the pom.xml:
    <dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.code.sli4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>sli4j-core</artifactId>
    <version>XX.XX</version>
    <scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
  2. Extend the com.google.code.sli4j.core.AbstractLoggerInjector, that's the class responsibile of creating and injecting the desired Logger, specifying the Logger type:
    import java.lang.reflect.Field;

import com.acme.MyLogger;
import com.acme.MyLoggerFactory;

import com.google.code.sli4j.core.AbstractLoggerInjector;

public final class AcmeLoggerInjector extends AbstractLoggerInjector<MyLogger> {

    public AcmeLoggerInjector(Field field) {
        super(field);
    }

    @Override
    protected MyLogger createLogger(Class<?> klass) {
        return MyLoggerFactory.getLog(klass);
    }

}
  3. Extend the com.google.code.sli4j.core.AbstractLoggingModule, specifying the Logger type and the com.google.code.sli4j.core.AbstractLoggerInjector type:
    import com.acme.MyLogger;

import com.google.code.sli4j.core.AbstractLoggingModule;
import com.google.inject.TypeLiteral;
import com.google.inject.matcher.Matcher;

public final class AcmeLoggingModule extends AbstractLoggingModule<MyLogger> {

    public ACLLoggingModule(Matcher<? super TypeLiteral<?>> matcher) {
        super(matcher, AcmeLoggerInjector.class);
    }

}
  4. Plug your new logging module and enjoy ;)
