                                       ...);

Print a set of key–value pairs in a table. The width of the key column is automatically set to the width of the longest key. The keys and values must be provided as a null-delimited list of alternating key–value varargs. Values may be null but keys may not.

This is intended to be used by backend libraries only.

The table will be printed at the current indentation level plus one.

#### Parameters

self | the FolksDebug instance |
domain | . The debug domain name . | [in]
level | . A set of log level flags for the message . | [in]

folks_debug_print_key_value_pairs

### folks_debug_get_colour_enabled ()

    gboolean
    folks_debug_get_colour_enabled (FolksDebug *self);

Get and return the current value of the "colour-enabled" property.

#### Parameters

self | the FolksDebug instance to query |

#### Returns

the value of the "colour-enabled" property

folks_debug_get_colour_enabled

### folks_debug_set_colour_enabled ()

    void
    folks_debug_set_colour_enabled (FolksDebug *self,
                                    gboolean value);

value | the new value of the "debug-output-enabled" property |

Since: 0.5.1

folks_debug_set_debug_output_enabled

### folks_debug_dup ()

    FolksDebug *
    folks_debug_dup (void);

Create or return the singleton FolksDebug class instance. If the instance doesn't exist already, it will be created with no debug domains enabled.

### folks_debug_dup_with_flags ()

    FolksDebug *

                                gboolean colour_enabled);

Create or return the singleton FolksDebug class instance. If the instance doesn't exist already, it will be created with the given set of debug domains enabled. Otherwise, the existing instance will have its set of enabled domains changed to the provided set.

#### Parameters

debug_flags | . A comma-separated list of debug domains to enable, or null to disable debug output . | [in][allow-none]
colour_enabled | . Whether debug output should be coloured using terminal escape sequences . | [in]
