How to reduce the log level of the lora server

Setup and configuration
1

Hello,

Is it possible to reduce the log level of the LoRa server?
Can’t find an environment variable to do so.

I am running it in Docker and after running for some hours the container hangs so I want to reduce the log level to solve this issue.

Thanks and best regards!

I think it’s not available right now, but it should be fairly easy to add. All you need to do is add a flag and then set the logger’s level, like this:

func setLogLevel(c *cli.Context) error {
	log.SetLevel(log.Level(uint8(c.Int("log-level"))))
	return nil
}
...
cli.IntFlag{
	Name:   "log-level",
	Value:  5,
	Usage:  "debug=5, info=4, warning=3, error=2, fatal=1, panic=0",
	EnvVar: "LOG_LEVEL",
},

Finally, add it to tasks:

tasks := []func(*cli.Context) error{
    setLogLevel,
	setNetID,
	setBandConfig,
	setDeduplicationDelay,
	setGetDownlinkDataDelay,
	setCreateGatewayOnStats,
	setNodeSessionTTL,
	setLogNodeFrames,
	setGatewayServerJWTSecret,
	setStatsAggregationIntervals,
	setTimezone,
	printStartMessage,
	enableUplinkChannels,
	setRedisPool,
	setPostgreSQLConnection,
	setGatewayBackend,
	setApplicationServer,
	setNetworkController,
	runDatabaseMigrations,
	startAPIServer,
	startGatewayAPIServer,
	startLoRaServer(server),
	startStatsServer(gwStats),
}

Unless there’s a reason why this is not implemented, I’ll fork current loraserver and make a PR with this feature.

Thanks @iegomez :slight_smile: I’ve just merged the pull-request. An updated Docker container should be available in a couple of minutes.
