I appears that this is gone from the new code. In the old code you could construct the logger with a string based level instead of a numeric value.
/**
* All possible log levels
* @public
*/
export interface ILogLevel {
0: "silly";
1: "trace";
2: "debug";
3: "info";
4: "warn";
5: "error";
6: "fatal";
}
/**
* Constructor: logger settings
* all values are optional and will be pre-filled with default values
* @public
*/
export interface ISettingsParam {
...
/** Minimum output log level (e.g. debug), default: "silly" */
minLevel?: TLogLevelName;
...
}
I believe this is a worse developer experience as a consumer because now in my environment file I can't simply set the log level to be "info" or "debug" or "warn". I have to set it to some ambiguous number.
e.g. - I have to set it to be "3" using the newer constructor. What does "3" mean? Nobody on my team knows unless they look it up in this repo.
