Method: Sapience.silence

Defined in:

lib/sapience/sapience.rb

.silence(new_level = :error) ⇒ Object

Silence noisy log levels by changing the default_level within the block

This setting is thread-safe and only applies to the current thread

Any threads spawned within the block will not be affected by this setting

#silence can be used to both raise and lower the log level within the supplied block.

Example:

# Perform trace level logging within the block when the default is higher
Sapience.config.default_level = :info

logger.debug 'this will _not_ be logged'

Sapience.silence(:trace) do
  logger.debug "this will be logged"
end

Parameters

new_level
  The new log level to apply within the block
  Default: :error

Example:

# Silence all logging for this thread below :error level
Sapience.silence do
  logger.info "this will _not_ be logged"
  logger.warn "this neither"
  logger.error "but errors will be logged"
end

Note:

#silence does not affect any loggers which have had their log level set
explicitly. I.e. That do not rely on the global default level
