Simple logger class for ruby - Log.rb

class Log
      attr_accessor :name
      attr_accessor :file

     def initialize(name)
         self.name = name
         self.file =         File.open("/home/shmueli/path/to/log/#{name}-#{Time.now}.log", 'w')
     end

     def add(str)
         file.puts(str)
     end

     def close
         file.close
     end
end


to initiate, simply add:
@log = Log.new('file_name')

to log:
@log.add "String to log"

to end logging:
@log.close

enjoy :)
