Display a column for the individual logger names (+ hide columns?)

Overflwn opened this issue · 1 comments

In case of multiple loggers writing to the same sink(s) it's hard to differentiate which logger sent which message.

Personally, in projects where I have multiple threads for example, I like to create separate loggers writing to the same sinks so that I can quickly see which thread / "part of the system" logged what into the sinks without explicitly writing that into the log messages themselves.

I think simply adding a column for the logger names would be sufficient enough for this. I can add this and create a pull request for it, if you want to. As far as I can understand the code it's a very simple addition.

Maybe even adding a feature to hide specific columns would be a good idea as well? I'm not sure about that though.
