"Request For Comments on a Feature Suggestion" -- just wondering if
others
would find this useful.
Frequently, when something really doesn't make sense, I like to bump up
the console logging by editing logger.conf and changing
console = error
to
console = debug,dtmf,error,event,info,notice,verbose,warning
and entering
logger reload
When done, I have to undo the changes.
It occurs to me that being able to just enter:
logger reload maximum-verbosity.conf
would be a useful feature and would be useful in many situations like
"iax2 reload" or "extensions reload."
Yays or nays?

Thanks in advance,

It's a nice idea, but the powers that be change verbs too often. Something
like:
- debug_reload xxx would be even nicer (IMO).

I don't think it should be particularly difficult to implement, as long as the CLI command implementing the reload is located in the same file as the reload itself (true for most modules, but for chicken-and-egg init situations is not always true for the core). -- Tilghman Lesher Digium, Inc. | Senior Software Developer twitter: Corydon76 | IRC: Corydon76-dig (Freenode) Check us out at: www.digium.com & www.asterisk.org

Many times when trying to capture logs for a bug, you need to first modify your logger.conf, reload logger, enable debugs, reproduce, disable debug logs, edit logger.conf then reload. It would be great to do all that from the CLI. -- Paul Belanger | dCAP Polybeacon | Consultant Jabber: paul.belanger at polybeacon.com | IRC: pabelanger (Freenode) blog.polybeacon.com
