Specifying channel information dynamically

[abishekrsrikaanth]

Currently the monolog makes use of the channel specified when initializing the Logger Class. Is there a way to dynamically specify the channel information.

There isn't a method setName on the Logger class and $name is a protected property so cannot actually change the channel name dynamically.

My application initializes the Logger class globally and makes use of that instance to Log throughout the application, so it is actually difficult to change the channel name.

I was thinking of something like this

$loggerObj->setName('CHANNEL_NAME');
$loggerObj->addInfo('LOG INFORMATION GOES HERE');

or

$loggerObj->addInfo('LOG INFO GOES HERE',$context,$channelName);

Could someone advice if there is a way to do this?

That would cause bad side-effects and messy code since you would have to change the channel back to the previous value every time. The point is you can create multiple Loggers for each logical channel you have, and then add all the same handlers to each of them.
