Per-object logging level

[Laxystem]

Hello!

I am making a game engine, and need to interact with native code often. I have some abstractions that help me; But I use them in both critical and non-critical contexts.

For example, I have a Closer class that collects AutoCloseables with a nice syntax, then when closed, closes all of them in the correct order. For some usages, I want to log its internals - sometimes, not. So I end up passing a LogLevel to the constructor.

Issue is --- I have to create my own trace, debug etc. functions with the logic, and pass the LogLevel to them. How would you recommend handling this?

I need to see some code examples to give better advice. the fluent api accept a level so it sounds like it can assist:

public fun at(level: Level, marker: Marker? = null, block: KLoggingEventBuilder.() -> Unit)

@oshai hey, I've found a solution that fits me; But I think I need some inexpensive API to set, or at least query, the log level of specific loggers for it.

Is that currently possible? I assume creating KLoggers is expensive.

Alternatively, an API that allows to create a child-logger (gets a string as input, returns a logger with a name guaranteed to count as "inherting" the previous logger) would work too.
