Is there a good article about how to configure appropriate levels of logging for Home Assistant?
I’ve read through the doc topics on logger:, history:, recorder:, and so on, and I confess I still have a lot of questions. I’m not finding the information I need to create a sensible logging configuration.
Before I spend a lot of time on research and experimentation, is there already a good resource available? Maybe not official doc, but something elsewhere?
Questions I still have:
- What is written where?
- What is viewable where?
- logger: vs. recorder: vs. history: vs. logbook:
- Logbook vs. History vs. Log Viewer vs. Developer Tools > Logs vs. Supervisor > System > System log
- What’s useful to save, vs. what’s not?
- What are all of these different back ends, and why would I choose one over the others? Why would I change from the default?
- If I’ve installed InfluxDB, and set it up with HA, how does that relate to the other logging?
And so on. There’s a lot to understand here, and I’m just not finding the details I (think I) need to make sensible configuration decisions. Thanks!
