Whoop is a Ruby logging library with built-in formatting and colorization.
To try whoop within your browser, visit the whoop playground.
Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:
$ bundle add whoop
If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:
$ gem install whoop
You can configure the gem for you Rails app by adding an an initializer:
# config/initializers/whoop.rb
Whoop.setup do |config|
config.logger = ActiveSupport::Logger.new("log/debug.log")
# config.logger = ActiveSupport::Logger.new("log/#{Rails.env}.log")
# config.logger = ActiveSupport::Logger.new($stdout)
# config.logger = SemanticLogger["WHOOP"]
# config.logger = nil # uses `puts`
config.level = :debug
# config.level = :info
# config.level = :warn
# config.level = :error
endThe whoop method is accessible from any object. See specs for more examples.
whoop "Hello, World!"You can pass any options into the whoop method to change the output.
label(first argument) - Either the object or title if a block is passed (see below)pattern- String character to use for the line (default is-)count- the number of times to repeat the pattern per line (e.g. 80)color- the color to use for the line (e.g. :red)format- the format to use for the message (one of:json,:sql,:plain,:pretty)caller_depth- the depth of the caller to use for the source (default: 0)explain- whether to runEXPLAINon the SQL query (default: false)context- a hash of key/value pairs to include in the outputtags- an array of tags to include in the output

# ┗--------------------------------------------------------------------------------In addition to formatting the SQL query, you can also ask whoop to perform an
explain on the query by using the explain: true argument.
Example (using the Example 1 sample plan from explain.dalibo.com):
sql = <<~SQL
SELECT rel_users_exams.user_username AS rel_users_exams_user_username,
rel_users_exams.exam_id AS rel_users_exams_exam_id,
rel_users_exams.started_at AS rel_users_exams_started_at,
rel_users_exams.finished_at AS rel_users_exams_finished_at,
exam_1.id AS exam_1_id,
exam_1.title AS exam_1_title,
exam_1.date_from AS exam_1_date_from,
exam_1.date_to AS exam_1_date_to,
exam_1.created AS exam_1_created,
exam_1.created_by_ AS exam_1_created_by_,
exam_1.duration AS exam_1_duration,
exam_1.success_threshold AS exam_1_success_threshold,
exam_1.published AS exam_1_published
FROM rel_users_exams LEFT OUTER
JOIN exam AS exam_1
ON exam_1.id = rel_users_exams.exam_id
WHERE 1 = rel_users_exams.exam_id;
