# Extend rails' logger to support multiple targets.
# Patterns are added with `add_log`, then when a message is added to the log,
# it is checked against the patterns.
# example:
#     logger = MultiLogger.new("log.txt")
#     logger.add_log("Delayed::Job", "dj_log.txt")
class MultiLogger < ActiveSupport::BufferedLogger

  # pattern can be either a String or a Regexp.
  def add_log(pattern, target)
    @extra_logs[pattern] = ActiveSupport::BufferedLogger.new(target)
    return self # just so we can't accidentally grab the sub-log and do something stupid with it.
  end

  def initialize(target, level=DEBUG)
    super(target, level)
    @extra_logs = {}
  end
