I can confirm that running chef-client with -l info or -l debug still does not produce the requested logs. I am pretty sure that I have to do somethint special to get logging inside a ruby_block to work

:info and :debug are suppressed by default, if you do 'chef-client -l info' do you see your log message?

I have searched the interwebs and have not found the answer that I am looking for so hopefully someone where has solved my problem

I want to log stuff using chef log levels when inside a ruby_block. The BELOW DOES NOT WORK

  ruby_block "ruby_block_thing" do

    block do

      foo = my_method

      if foo.sucess?

        Chef::Log.info("sucessfully ran my_method")

        Chef::Log.debug("my_method said #{foo.response}")

      end

    end

    action :run

  end

Any know the "correct" way to log stuff within a ruby block. I am hoping that using puts is not the best answer.

As you can see here I want to output different thing based on different log level.
