LoggerInstance.setEnabled

Enable or disable logging for this specific logger instance.

Syntax​

setEnabled(enabled: boolean): void

Parameters​

enabled (required)​

Whether to enable logging for this instance.

  • true: Enable logging for this instance
  • false: Disable logging for this instance

Type: boolean

Examples​

Basic Usage​

const appLogger = logger.createInstance('app');

// Disable logging for this instance
appLogger.setEnabled(false);

// ... later ...

// Re-enable logging for this instance
appLogger.setEnabled(true);

Per-Instance Configuration​

const logger = InteractiveLogger({
  enabled: true  // Global setting: enabled
});

// Disable specific instances
const debugLogger = logger.createInstance('debug');
debugLogger.setEnabled(false);  // This instance won't log

const productionLogger = logger.createInstance('production');
// This instance will log (uses global setting)

Conditional Logging​

const logger = InteractiveLogger();

const verboseLogger = logger.createInstance('verbose');
if (isDevelopment) {
  verboseLogger.setEnabled(true);
} else {
  verboseLogger.setEnabled(false);
}

Notes​

  • This setting overrides the global enabled setting for this instance
  • When disabled, writeLog() calls are ignored (no-op)
  • Console logging may still work if setConsoleLogging(true) was called
  • This is instance-specific and doesn't affect other logger instances
