1. Gemfile: Add gem 'enhanced-logger' Remove gem 'rails_12factor'

2. In Application Controller, add before_action { logger.set_env( env )} after_action { logger.clear_env }

3. In config/application.rb, add config.logger = EnhancedLogger::Logger.new(EnhancedLogger::Logger::LEVELS[:info])

4. Set log level in environment/production.rb, test.rb and/or development.rb. Log levels are :debug, :info, :warn, :error, and :fatal. config.log_level = :debug

5. Use logger the same way as Rails logger. Rails.logger.info 'log message'

6. All HTTP requests to services running Enhanced Logger should set the X-Remote-Request-Id header.

1. Gemfile: Add gem 'enhanced-logger'

2. App: require 'enhanced-logger'

3. Instantiate the logger. For example:

   class App
     @logger = EnhancedLogger::Logger.new( EnhancedLogger::Logger::LEVELS[ :error ])

4. Before each request is processed: @logger.set_env( env )

5. After each request is processed: @logger.clear_env

6. To use logger: @logger.info 'log message'

7. All HTTP requests to services running Enhanced Logger should set the X-Remote-Request-Id header.

The initializer takes an options hash. To you exclude files from appearing as the caller,

exclude_files = {exclude_files:['log', 'log_helper']} EnhancedLogger::Logger.new( EnhancedLogger::Logger::LEVELS[ :error ], exclude_files)

This gem does not work with the rails_12factor gem.
