keycloak logs and log level

[npo-mmenke]

hey, thanks for this plugin... I'm having trouble configuring a saml identity provider and would like to check the keycloak logs for hints whats going wrong. Is there any way to access them and/or influence the log level?

This command may help to debug issues:

ddev logs -f -s keycloak

How keycloak is started in he container:

start-dev --proxy edge --import-realm

IIRC, start-dev will make keycloak already more verbose.

thanks, that helps already

I don' think start-dev has any effect on logging, from https://www.keycloak.org/server/configuration

Development mode sets the following default configuration:
HTTP is enabled
Strict hostname resolution is disabled
Cache is set to local (No distributed cache mechanism used for high availability)
Theme-caching and template-caching is disabled

here is a reference how to specify log levels when starting:

https://www.keycloak.org/server/logging

bin/kc.[sh|bat] start --log-level=

maybe it's possible to pass this for the plugin?

I'm happy to change the startup command. Would be great if you could providde a PR with to command changed according to your need while keeping the options set in start-dev.
