Logging

This project employs the logging facade SLF4J, using Apache Log4j 2.x as its backend. Accordingly, levels of detail can be specified as follows:

^{OFF: The highest possible rank and is intended to turn off logging. ERROR: Designates error events that might still allow the application to continue running. WARN: Designates potentially harmful situations. INFO: Designates informational messages that highlight the progress of the application at coarse-grained level. DEBUG: Designates fine-grained informational events that are most useful to debug an application. TRACE: Designates finer-grained informational events than the DEBUG. ALL: All levels including custom levels.}

For more guidance on which level to use, see Coding Conventions#Logging

For modifying the log output of a running client, you may use a custom log4j config file by setting a system property at startup.  Besu's logging doc provides good documentation on how to configure logging in Besu.
