Hi there.
I know this, although easy, would be a big step. So I'd love to hear your thoughts. I can't remember the last time I needed to open/read log/development.log or log/test.log. This is just consuming disk space unnecessarily (my test.loge easily reaches more than 1 GB!). After talking to some other developers, all of them agreed they don't use it as well. What if we change this behaviour to be optional? It'd still display the logs through the STDOUT, though. I've been doing it in my projects and couldn't find a reason not to do it. The way I currently do it is similar to what Heroku's rails_12factor gem used to do (and now is the default in Rails for *production* environment): # config/environments/development.rb # Prevents from writing logs on `log/development.log` logger = ActiveSupport::Logger.new(STDOUT) logger.formatter = config.log_formatter config.logger = ActiveSupport::TaggedLogging.new(logger) # config/environments/test.rb # Prevents from writing logs on `log/test.log` config.log_level = :warn logger = ActiveSupport::Logger.new(STDOUT) logger.formatter = config.log_formatter config.logger = ActiveSupport::TaggedLogging.new(logger) Thank you, Lucas. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
