Verbose mode

Opened this issue · 2 comments

So many times I have wished I could raise the verbosity of debug mode or just normal operations. Could there be a new function such as verboseMsg() added? The contents would only be output when Mycroft is in verbose mode (and maybe there could also be a veryVerbose mode). It is especially important when Mycroft is deciding on skills and back end apps.

Hey Mike, do mean more verbose than log level DEBUG? Or do you mean Mycroft being more verbose in it's spoken output for regular users?

I don't think there is a voice command for setting log levels to debug yet which could be very handy for getting more detailed info from less technical users.

Kris,

I meant more verbose than log level DEBUG, yes. But thinking about it, the latter could be helpful too. If more than one skill, or back end can satisfy a request, and Mycroft is in verbose speaking mode, he might say something like "Skill X is 70% likely and skill Y is 60%, so I am using skill X"...
