#configure_loggingObject

Loggers and Formatters

In Chef 10.x and previous, the Logger was the primary/only way that Chef communicated information to the user. In Chef 10.14, a new system, “output formatters” was added, and in Chef 11.0+ it is the default when running chef in a console (detected by ‘STDOUT.tty?`). Because output formatters are more complex than the logger system and users have less experience with them, the config option `force_logger` is provided to restore the Chef 10.x behavior.

Conversely, for users who want formatter output even when chef is running unattended, the ‘force_formatter` option is provided.

Auto Log Level

When ‘log_level` is set to `:auto` (default), the log level will be `:warn` when the primary output mode is an output formatter (see using_output_formatter?) and `:info` otherwise.

Automatic STDOUT Logging

When ‘force_logger` is configured (e.g., Chef 10 mode), a second logger with output on STDOUT is added when running in a console (STDOUT is a tty) and the configured log_location isn’t STDOUT. This accounts for the case that a user has configured a log_location in client.rb, but is running chef-client by hand to troubleshoot a problem.
