Wildcards can be used for node names and namespaces as described in [Remapping Names](static_remapping.html#match-part-of-a-rule).
`*` matches a single token delimeted by slashes (`/`).
`**` matches zero or more tokens delimeted by slashes.
Partial matches are not allowed (e.g. `foo*`).

For example,

```yaml
/**:
ros__parameters:
string_param: foo
```

will set the parameter `string_param` on all nodes,

```yaml
/**/some_node:
ros__parameters:
string_param: foo
```

will set the parameter `string_param` on nodes named `some_node` in any namespace,

```yaml
/foo/*:
ros__parameters:
string_param: foo
```

will set the parameter `string_param` on any node in the namespace `/foo`.

#### Logging level assignments

Minimum logging level can be externally set either globally or per logger using the `--log-level` option.
