Discard event logs with level Debug and below

[bretthysuik]

I've got a Target where I want to discard all logs with a level of Debug and below. Setting Logging.Level doesn't work because the mappings don't line up with my need (I need LogEventLevel.Information and higher):

set => LevelSwitch.MinimumLevel = value switch
{
    LogLevel.Trace => LogEventLevel.Verbose,
    LogLevel.Normal => LogEventLevel.Debug,
    LogLevel.Warning => LogEventLevel.Warning,
    LogLevel.Error => LogEventLevel.Error,
    _ => throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException(nameof(value), value, message: null)
};

Setting Logging.LevelSwitch.MinimumLevel to LogEventLevel.Information results in ArgumentOutOfRangeException being thrown because there's no valid mapping for Information.

The tool I'm calling in the Target doesn't have a configurable verbosity.

Is there another way to configure logging to only log at LogEventLevel.Information and above?

Try using Logging.LevelSwitch.MinimumLevel = LogEventLevel.Information;

That results in ArgumentOutOfRangeException being thrown because there's no valid mapping for Information:

[ERR] Target UnitTest has thrown an exception
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Exception of type 'System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException' was thrown. (Parameter 'LevelSwitch')
Actual value was Information.

Ok, I see the problem now. At first I thought the exception was thrown by setting the MinimumLevel, but with the stack trace you provided it is clear that the problem occurs when someone is trying to retrieve the value from Logging.Level after setting the MinimumLevel to LogEventLevel.Information. You are correct, the mapping is missing and should probably be added with a bug fix.
