[log_clf]

Description

This tag was co-written with Alex Pilson, and was designed to give the developer more control over access logs. Potential uses include writing logs only for specific pages (i.e. to supply to advertisors) or controlling the url that gets logged (for instance, with one-file type systems that do not use a url-rewriting scheme, where otherwise all your log entries would be for /index.lasso). Writes in Apache Combined Log Format.

Requires the path to the log file and optionally accepts a custom filename. (Otherwise uses [response_filepath].)

For accurate bytes logging, must be called via [define_atend]. (see example)

Sample Usage

	define_atend({
		log_clf( -path='/access.txt');
	});
