There's a line of code that silently modifies the configured log variable. This is a bad idea, as it makes stuff harder to debug. This MR removes that line of code.


  • I ran cargo fmt and cargo test
  • I agree to release my code and all other changes of this MR under the Apache-2.0 license

The idea of the log config manipulation is that we might add more libraries that add a lot more logging, but we don't want all users to get spammed and to have to edit their config file. If you still want to give the user total control here's an alternative idea:

There could be a normal and an advanced log mode. So in pseudocode, an enum with the variants Normal(debug|info|warn|error) and Advanced(String)

Couldn't users configure this on their own using the regular EnvFilter syntax by doing e.g. off,conduit=info,etc=warn to turn everything off by default and explicitly enable only specific things? Something of this nature could be made the default and also mentioned in configuration documentation to tell users why they might or might not want to include the off, prefix.
