Run rails models without rails / make logger available globally

Question

I have a rails application and want to run some part of it with less memory footprint. Thus I am trying to run these without Rails.

Everything(?) is require d, but the code crashes, when it reaches calls to logger .

Is there a way to either create a variable or method logger globally or add one to the scope of specific classes from the outside? I don't want to remove all logging from the code.

Answer 1

I ended up creating a logger method in Object :

class Object
  def logger
    -> { Logging.logger.root }.call
  end
end

Speak up if you have a better solution.
