Cliasi instances

Having multiple cliasi instances allows you to easily communicate different program scopes.

Part A of your program has one instance with its own prefix while part B has another instance with a different prefix.

min_verbose_level and messages_stay_in_one_line are inferred from the global (cliasi.cli) instance if not set (None).

This means that if you set these parameters on the global instance, all other instances will inherit these settings unless you explicitly set them.

examples/cliasi_multiple_instances.py

from cliasi import Cliasi, cli

def function_that_has_no_idea_about_main_program():
    # Create a new instance with its own prefix
    local_cli = Cliasi(prefix="FUNC")
    local_cli.log("Debug will be shown as min verbosity is inferred by default")
    local_cli.info("Info from function")

cli.min_verbose_level=0
cli.set_prefix("MAIN")
cli.log("Shown as min verbosity is DEBUG")
function_that_has_no_idea_about_main_program()

Warning

The actual colors and symbols below may vary depending on your terminal and its settings.

LOG [MAIN] | Shown as min verbosity is DEBUG
LOG [FUNC] | Debug will be shown as min verbosity is inferred by default
i [FUNC] | Info from function
