Description
"Add unified logging across Rust and frontend using the Tauri v2 logging plugin with configurable levels, filtering, and file output. Use when setting up app-wide logging, configuring log levels for dev vs release, or implementing safe diagnostics without leaking secrets."

When to use this skill

ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions:

  • Unified logging for Tauri apps (dev and release)
  • Log level configuration, filtering, or file output
  • Safe diagnostics without leaking sensitive data

Trigger phrases include:

  • "logging", "log levels", "log plugin", "diagnostics", "log file", "debug logs"

How to use this skill

  1. Install the logging plugin:
    cargo add tauri-plugin-log
    
  2. Register the plugin with level and target configuration:
    use tauri_plugin_log::{Target, TargetKind};
    tauri::Builder::default()
        .plugin(tauri_plugin_log::Builder::new()
            .targets([Target::new(TargetKind::Stdout), Target::new(TargetKind::LogDir { file_name: None })])
            .level(log::LevelFilter::Info)
            .build())
    
  3. Configure capabilities in src-tauri/capabilities/default.json:
    { "permissions": ["log:default"] }
    
  4. Log from the frontend:
    import { info, warn, error } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-log';
    await info('App started');
    await error('Something went wrong');
    
  5. Use different log levels for dev (Debug/Trace) vs release (Info/Warn) builds
  6. Redact sensitive data before logging (never log tokens, passwords, or PII)

Outputs

  • Logging plugin setup with file and stdout targets
  • Level-based filtering for dev vs release
  • Redaction rules for sensitive data
