Introduction

============

If you ever wanted to collect statistics on the number of log messages,

this is the module for you!

Setup

=====

After [installing the module](https://prosody.im/doc/installing_modules)

and adding it to modules\_enabled as most other modules, you also need

to add it to your logging config:

``` {.lua}

log = {

  -- your other log sinks

  info = "/var/log/prosody/prosody.log"

  -- add this:

  { to = "measure" };

}

```

Then log messages will be counted by

[statsmanager](https://prosody.im/doc/developers/core/statsmanager).
