[Suggestion] LoggerFactory.default as a default parameter for newLogger()

[tom5079]

Hello,

I recently started using this library and I noticed that I quite repetitively use newLogger(LoggerFactory.default)
Because it's "default", can we make it a default parameter so we can use it with just newLogger()?

Thank you for the awesome library by the way :)

Hi !
Happy you like the lib :)

I don't think that's a very good idea, because it would make it easy to mistakenly use default in an application that uses a custom configuration.

What I usually do in my apps is:

val appLoggerFactory = LoggerFactory(defaultLogFrontend.withShortPackageKeepLast(2))

public inline fun <reified T> T.newAppLogger(): Logger = newLogger(appLoggerFactory)

...and use newAppLogger everywhere in the application.

If newLogger took a default argument, it would encourage developers in my team to mistakingly use it rather than looking for the correct newAppLogger.

Thanks! That sounds like a good idea.
I'm closing this issue.
