1.6.0 @ node-red v0.20.5 in docker container: extensive writing to log file about node-red-contrib-s7 HOT 4 CLOSED

Yes, it does help us docker freshers a lot. Thanks !

from node-red-contrib-s7.

The official Node-RED container starts with Node-RED in verbose mode, which in turn causes the massive amount of logs.
You can manually disable the node's logging on the "s7 endpoint" config node. There's a debug option there that you can set to "No", and the logs should then stop.

Thanks for your quick response. - "Debug Off" works indeed :)
(However, [error]s are still logged.)

Our problem still is "... writing to log file":
In our node-red docker implementation all command line output is also written to a file.
Well, we have to solve this docker specific part ourselves. Just would be glad if you have any advice...

This options just en/disable the logging of the library we use to communicate with (since it currently cannot integrate with a logging framework). For all other logging, you should be able to control that globally on your settings.js of Node-RED.

Regarding Docker logging, it all depends how you've set-up your environment, but a quick look at the Docker Docs (here and here) shows that you can configure the default logging driver to do log rotation automatically. Maybe that can help.
