使用 ruby 日志记录 gem 关闭日志轮换

Question

I have some code I am maintaining that is using the logging ruby gem. I would like to use the linux logrotate tool instead of the gem to rotate the logs. I'm using it inside some custom code to create separate log streams.

require 'logging'
[...]
def create_logger(name)
   logger = Logging.logger[name]

Is there a way I can turn off log rotation after the logger object is created?

logger.age = 0 is not working.

Answer 1

The source code has good documentation , which only mentions setting rotation strategy on initialization, I don't think changing an existing instance's rotation strategy is a good idea as it could have unintended consequences.

But, you could close the existing logger with logger.close and reopen it later with logger.reopen .
