Logger Component
|
||
================
|
||
|
||
The logger component automatically logs all log messages through the
|
||
serial port and through MQTT topics. By default, all logs with a
|
||
severity higher than ``DEBUG`` will be shown. Decreasing the log level
|
||
can help with the performance of the application and memory size.
|
||
|
||
.. code:: yaml
|
||
|
||
# Example configuration entry
|
||
logger:
|
||
level: DEBUG
|
||
|
||
Configuration variables:
|
||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
||
- **baud_rate** (*Optional*, int): The baud rate to use for the serial
|
||
UART port. Defaults to 115200.
|
||
- **log_topic** (*Optional*, string): The MQTT topic to write log
|
||
messages to. Defaults to ``<MQTT_TOPIC_PREFIX>/debug``. Empty string
|
||
disables MQTT logging.
|
||
- **tx_buffer_size** (*Optional*, string): The size of the buffer used
|
||
for log messages. Decrease this if you’re having memory problems.
|
||
Defaults to 512.
|
||
- **level** (*Optional*, string): The global log level. Any log message
|
||
with a lower severity will not be shown. Defaults to DEBUG.
|
||
- **logs** (*Optional*, mapping): Manually set the log level for a
|
||
specific component or tag. See :ref:`Manual Log Levels for more
|
||
information <logger-manual_tag_specific_levels>`.
|
||
- **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID used for code generation.

Log Levels
|
||
~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
||
Possible log levels are (sorted by severity):
|
||
|
||
- ``NONE``
|
||
- ``ERROR``
|
||
- ``WARN``
|
||
- ``INFO``
|
||
- ``DEBUG``
|
||
- ``VERBOSE``
|
||
- ``VERY_VERBOSE``
|
||
|
||
.. _logger-manual_tag_specific_levels:
|
||
|
||
Manual Tag-Specific Log Levels
|
||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
||
If some component is spamming the logs and you want to manually set the
|
||
log level for it, first identify the tag of the log messages in question
|
||
and then disable them in your configuration.
|
||
|
||
Suppose we want to have verbose log messages globally, but the MQTT
|
||
client spams too much. In the following example, we’d first see that the
|
||
tag of the MQTT client is ``mqtt.client`` (before the first colon) and
|
||
the tag for MQTT components is ``mqtt.component``.
|
||
|
||
.. figure:: images/logger-manual_log_level.png
|
||
|
||
Next, we can manually set the log levels in the configuration like this:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: yaml
|
||
|
||
logger:
|
||
level: VERBOSE
|
||
logs:
|
||
mqtt.component: DEBUG
|
||
mqtt.client: ERROR
|
||
|
||
Please note that the global log level determines what log messages are
|
||
saved in the binary. So for example a ``INFO`` global log message will
|
||
purge all ``DEBUG`` log statements from the binary in order to conserve
|
||
space. This however means that you cannot set tag-specific log levels
|
||
that have a lower severity than the global log level.
