# Custom Logging

Logging Messages and Capturing Handled Exceptions enhances app reliability by recording key events and errors during app execution.

### Log Messaage

Logs various types of informational, debug, warning, or error messages to capture events, notifications, or actions within the application.

```swift
import com.zipy.zipyandroid.Zipy;

// Simple message logging
Zipy.logMessage("User completed onboarding");

// With additional context
Zipy.logMessage("Cart updated", cartObject);

// With custom max length
Zipy.logMessage("Custom message", data, 2000);
```

### Log Errors

Logs all the error, providing all the details you pass for debugging. Captures and records error events within your application

```swift
import com.zipy.zipyandroid.Zipy;

// Simple error logging
Zipy.logError("Payment processing failed");

// With error object
Zipy.logError("API error", errorObject);

// With custom max length
Zipy.logError("Database error", error, 2000);

```

### Log Exceptions

Logs exceptions encountered by the application, providing detailed stack traces and context to aid in debugging and troubleshooting. This feature ensures critical data is logged promptly to diagnose and resolve issues.

```swift
import com.zipy.zipyandroid.Zipy;

try {
    // Your code here
} catch (Exception e) {
    // Simple exception logging
    Zipy.logException("Operation failed");

    // With exception details
    Zipy.logException("Failed to process payment", e);

    // With custom max length
    Zipy.logException("Custom error", e, 2000);
}

```

**Note:** For custom logging, if `maxLength` is not provided, it will default to capturing the full length.
