swift-logging / swift-logging-specifications Goto Github PK

Proposal: SWIFTLOG-0003

The log levels used in the reference projects are usually Verbose, Debug, Info, Warn and Error. Any reasons for getting rid of Verbose and adding a Critical level on top of Error?

EDIT: It would also be beneficial to document what the various levels signify(something like this)

Cloning this repo results in a directory called specifications while forking it leaves me with a personal copy of a repo called specifications.

I keep all of my cloned repos in a single directory, and it always takes me a couple beats to remember what the specifications directory is about. Same when I see the specifications repo hanging out among the dozens I have on GitHub.

Even though it would result in a little redundancy in the repo URL, I propose we rename this repo to swift-logging-specifications.

In the long-run, that'll make it easier to deal with forks and copies on the filesystem.

Hi,

I know that mailing lists are an established way of discussing stuff for programming languages but maybe can just use the Github Issues section of the repo?

It is much easier to read and write stuff and it is already grouped by topic. Using labels you can add even more context to a discussion and since everyone is anyway using Github we can leverage Github’s notification system :)

What do you think?

P.S.: Thanks for initiating that discussion in the first place. Logging is fundamental to every programming language and having a great, simple solution will be key for all the new developers coming from other programming languages to the hot and newly open-sourced Swift 2 😄
