Web log spam

[0xdevalias]

I was wondering if there was any easy/nice way of preventing the web log spam (at least on my dev instance) from /worker_status?

20:46:11 web.1      | Started GET "/worker_status" for 127.0.0.1 at 2014-06-02 20:46:11 +1000
20:46:11 web.1      | Processing by WorkerStatusController#show as JSON
20:46:11 web.1      | Geokit is using the domain: 
20:46:11 web.1      |   User Load (0.4ms)  SELECT  `users`.* FROM `users`  WHERE `users`.`id` = 1  ORDER BY `users`.`id` ASC LIMIT 1
20:46:11 web.1      |    (0.2ms)  SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `delayed_jobs`  WHERE (run_at <= '2014-06-02 10:46:11' AND locked_at IS NULL AND attempts = 0)
20:46:11 web.1      |    (0.2ms)  SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `delayed_jobs`  WHERE (failed_at IS NULL AND attempts > 0)
20:46:11 web.1      |    (0.2ms)  SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `delayed_jobs`  WHERE (failed_at IS NOT NULL AND failed_at > '2014-05-28 10:46:11')
20:46:11 web.1      |    (0.3ms)  SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `events`  WHERE `events`.`user_id` = 1
20:46:11 web.1      | Completed 200 OK in 5ms (Views: 0.1ms | ActiveRecord: 1.2ms)

Yea, that'd be nice. We might be able to move it to a rack handler? Or
maybe you can Google and see if there's a way to skip certain logs in rails?

It sounds like this one (for assets) uses a Rack sort of thing: https://github.com/evrone/quiet_assets/blob/master/lib/quiet_assets.rb

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7365630/how-to-ignore-rails-3-assets-from-log

• From here: Served asset log messages are pretty annoying! :)  rails/rails#2639

Rails::Rack::Logger.class_eval do 
  def call_with_quiet_assets(env)
    previous_level = Rails.logger.level
    Rails.logger.level = Logger::ERROR if env['PATH_INFO'].index("/assets/") == 0 
    call_without_quiet_assets(env).tap do
      Rails.logger.level = previous_level
    end 
  end 
  alias_method_chain :call, :quiet_assets 
end

Does that sound like the right sort of thing to you?

I also do not know of a build in way to silence logging for just one method. Thats what we are using in a different project:

quiet_logger.rb

module Utils
  class QuietLogger < Rails::Rack::Logger
    def initialize(app, opts = {})
      @app = app
      @opts = opts
      super
    end

    def call(env)
      begin
        route = Rails.application.routes.recognize_path(env['PATH_INFO'], method: env['REQUEST_METHOD'].downcase.to_sym)
      rescue
        return super(env)
      end

      action = route[:action]
      controller = route[:controller]
      controller_klass = (controller.split('/').map { |p| p.camelize }.join('::') + 'Controller').constantize

      if controller_klass.class_variable_defined?(:@@silenced_actions) &&
        controller_klass.class_variable_get(:@@silenced_actions).include?(action.to_sym)
        log_only_errors do
          @app.call(env)
        end
      else
        super(env)
      end
    end

    def log_only_errors
      old_level = Rails.logger.level
      Rails.logger.level = Logger::ERROR
      r = yield
      Rails.logger.level = old_level
      r
    end
  end
end

initializer

Huginn::Application.config.middleware.swap Rails::Rack::Logger, Utils::QuietLogger

controller

  @@silenced_actions = [:updates]

But I am not sure if this works in rails 4

[cantino]

Both approaches seem reasonable. The quiet_assets approach, if it works, might be a bit better since it doesn't seem to patch how all logging works.
