Custom Logging File

[davidalexander]

It would be very useful for debugging if Turpentine could log files to a custom log file rather than the standard var/log/system.log. Filtering though var/log/system.log for Turpentine specific logs can be quite time consuming.

The core Mage::log supports a third parameter $file which could be used for this.

// app/Mage.php ln.785
public static function log($message, $level = null, $file = '', $forceLog = false)

+1, sounds like a plan. Grepping through the system.log for turpentine entries can be rather annoying at times. I would recommend adding two settings for this, a selectbox to specify if a custom logfile should be used or not, and another one that a logfile name can be entered into, if the custom logfile is enabled.
