      Is there any way to control the logging behavior of the mongosh, for example

      • verbosity
      • what to log
      • retention time when old log files are deleted

      or even disable logging completely?

      In my application I turned to mongosh, after a few days the HOME filesystem run out of disk space!

      The mongosh logs everything - every command and even the content of files loaded by load(...). This looks like an overkill to me.

       

      I created a cron job find ~/.mongodb/mongosh/ -mindepth 1 -mmin +60 -name "*_log" -delete but I don't think this could be the final solution.

       

      Kind Regards
