2. [**Usage**](#usage)

## Installation

1. In your `Gemfile`, add the `vidazing_logger` gem:

    ```ruby
    gem 'vidazing_logger', '~> 0.1'
    ```

2. In your `shell`, run:

    ```ruby
    bundle install
    ```

3. (Optional - If you want to use the `rake loop:` tasks) Install [fswatch](https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch)

4. (Optional - If you use `pry`) Ran into a [byebug issue](https://github.com/deivid-rodriguez/byebug/issues/440) that you can fix with:

    ```ruby
    gem install byebug
    gem install pry-byebug
    ```

## Usage
See `rake -T`

### Gem
```ruby
require 'vidazing_logger'

logger = VidazingLogger.logger("OPTIONAL_LOGGER_NAME")
```

### Binary

`vidazing_logger` for all your stand alone shell logging needs. We should probably let you disable the `logs/` file logging... Moving along!

Install with `gem install vidazing_logger`

See `vidazing_logger --help`
