SetEffectLogLevel

Sets the level at which the logging effects write their entries. It is not a filter: the junction logger (AddJunctionLogger) and the JSON effect (AddJson) write every entry at this level, and your logging configuration decides whether that level is kept.

Signature

public static TBuilder SetEffectLogLevel<TBuilder>(
    this TBuilder builder,
    LogLevel logLevel
)
    where TBuilder : TraxEffectBuilder

The generic type parameter TBuilder is inferred by the compiler, so callers just write .SetEffectLogLevel(...). This preserves the concrete builder type through chaining (e.g., TraxEffectBuilderWithData stays as TraxEffectBuilderWithData).

Parameters

Returns

TBuilder, the same builder type that was passed in, for continued fluent chaining.

Example

services.AddTrax(trax => trax
    .AddEffects(effects => effects
        .SetEffectLogLevel(LogLevel.Trace)
        .UsePostgres(connectionString)
    )
);

Remarks

• The default level is LogLevel.Debug.
• Raising it raises the volume. LogLevel.Warning would write each junction's metadata, serialized output included, as a warning, which most production sinks keep. To quiet the effects, leave the level low and filter it in your logging configuration (the categories are the providers' type names), or lower it to LogLevel.Trace.
• It applies to the junction logger and the JSON effect, not to the data context logging (which is controlled by AddDataContextLogging).
