Concise request logging for Rails production
Logs a concise single line for each request at :warn level. This allows
logging requests without all the extra logging that :info level outputs.
Not suitable for development but ideal for production settings where each request and associated parameters is logged.
Inspired by a blog post on RubyJunky.com.
Special thanks to Zohreh Jabbari for doing the initial coding and proof of concept.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'concise_logging'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install concise_logging
Add this to your config/production.rb. Configure tagging as per your desires.
We use tagging to indicate application with a 2 letter code and environment with
a single letter (e.g., p = production, s = staging).
# Configure logger to log warn and above
config.log_level = :warn
config.log_tags = ["cv-#{Rails.env[0]}"]
config.logger = ActiveSupport::TaggedLogging.new(ActiveSupport::Logger.new(File.join(Rails.root, "log", "#{Rails.env}.log")))If you want to try the logger in development than you have to manually add the
middleware and attach the log subscriber by adding these lines in your
config/development.rb file. These lines are not needed for production.
