Using Memento in Julia packages?

Some care needs to be taken when working with Memento from precompiled modules. Specifically, it is important to note that if you want folks be able to configure your logger from outside the module you'll want to register the logger in your __init__() method.

module MyModule

using Memento  # requires a minimum of Memento 0.5

# Create our module level logger (this will get precompiled)
const LOGGER = getlogger(@__MODULE__)

# Register the module level logger at runtime so that folks can access the logger via `get_logger(MyModule)`
# NOTE: If this line is not included then the precompiled `MyModule.LOGGER` won't be registered at runtime.
function __init__()
    Memento.register(LOGGER)
end

end
