Elixir Log Files - how to log info only?
Hello, when I use this for logging in the error.log file I get only error logs but in the info file there are both info and error logs. How can I make it log only info?
config :logger,
backends: [{LoggerFileBackend, :info},
{LoggerFileBackend, :error}]
config :logger, :info,
path: "/path/to/info.log",
level: :info
config :logger, :error,
path: "/path/to/error.log",
level: :error

err, @ayhan.rashidov I am wrong, this is not a bug. Actually, the data you see is 100% correct. When you mention logging level info all the logs that are less or equal to the verbosity will be logged regardless of the backend.
Verbosity levels:
debug > info > warn > error
so “info” level will log all info, warn and error logs and “warn” will log all warn & error logs ., etc.
if you really want only error logs to a file and only info logs in one log ( I would advice against it) . you can use metadata.
config :logger,
backends: [{LoggerFileBackend, :info},
{LoggerFileBackend, :error}]
config :logger, :info,
path: "/path/to/info.log",
level: :info,
metadata_filter: [level: :info]
config :logger, :error,
path: "/path/to/error.log",
level: :error,
metadata_filter: [level: :error]
and you may use like –
Logger.info("This is info log",level: :info)
Logger.error("This is info log",level: :error)

@ayhan.rashidov looks like you caught a bug.
your config is from their github.
