LOG - Logging configuration
The array
$GLOBALS defines how TYPO3 handles
logging—what gets logged, how it is formatted, and where it is written.
Depending on your role, there are two relevant guides:
- For developers implementing logging in extensions or custom services, see The logging framework (developer guide) chapter.
- For system administrators and DevOps configuring logging in production environments, see Logging considerations during production.
The default logging configuration shipped with TYPO3 can be found in: EXT:core/Configuration/DefaultConfiguration.php (GitHub)
