1. Introduction

The log module is a module that provides a logging mechanism for embedded systems. It allows developers to print logs with different verbose levels and regions, making it easier to debug and troubleshoot issues in your project.

The module is highly customizable and can be configured to meet the specific user needs.

It relies on the stm32_adv_trace.c/.h utility module. The user can therefore configure the output medium this way - by configuring the utility module.

2. Concepts

The Log module relies on different main concepts:

Log module configuration

Configuration of the future logs regarding verbose levels, regions and colors.

Verbose levels are used to categorize logs based on their importance, while regions are used to separate logs into different places. The module also defines color codes that can be used to highlight logs from different regions.

Timestamp registration

Allows the user to provide a function to add a timestamp for the logs output.

Printing macros

Log printings macros specific to each region. They are defined to ease user interface.
