Clogger is Rack middleware for logging HTTP requests. The log format  
is customizable so you can specify exactly which fields to log.

\* [http://clogger.rubyforge.org/](http://clogger.rubyforge.org/)  
\* [clogger@librelist.com](mailto:clogger@librelist.com)  
\* git://bogomips.org/clogger.git

Changes:

\* $time\_iso8601 added for nginx compatibility  
\* $time\_local (without strftime-options) is now locale-independent

There's also a minor usability tweak that allows Symbols to be  
specified as the :format argument, so [config.ru](http://config.ru) can be shortened:

before (continues to work with 1.0.0):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;use Clogger, :format =\> Clogger::Format::Rack\_1\_0

after:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;use Clogger, :format =\> :Rack\_1\_0
