Patrick Mueller commented on CB-611:
------------------------------------
bq. Pat: We create a new logger property on cordova. The primary use for this
is plugin code, not "user land" code. cordova.logger will have whatever minimal
logging level stuff we need.
bq. Chris: Why restrict the primary use to plugins?
Because we need to expose this loggingLevel functionality in a new object. But
plugin authors already have to deal with the {{cordova}} object for other uses.
Might as well put it there. We don't really advertise {{cordova}} as being
something that user land JavaScript should be using (I don't think).
And, in general, we should be wary of creating "new API", at least API visible
to user land JavaScript. Every "API" that we create from here on out will be
painful to remove in the future.
Maybe this new logging facility will pass muster over time and we can declare
it API and support it forever everywhere. But I've never seen any suggestion
that the existing de facto standard {{console}} object needed this
functionality, so history would say YAGNI (in user land JavaScript).

> I got a pull request on my Cordova-SQLitePlugin with a special logging
> function that is only logging when built as a debug version. I believe this
> issue should be solved in the core with a log function that is only logging
> when built as a debug version. Ideally a logging facility with multiple log
> levels. Please forgive me if this has already been done somewhere.
