Rails 3.2 messy logs - ruby-on-rails-3

Question

Every request I make on my local server is generating huge amounts of log messages like the following:
[aa6f821b342dc08800f423e86d24db20] [127.0.0.1] Rendered shared/_footer.html.erb (3.5ms)

I do like knowing what's loading, but isn't there a way to clean these empty messages up a little?

Answer 1

There is a gem, but I don't recall the name... just put this into config/initializers/quiet_assets.rb
Rails.application.assets.logger = Logger.new('/dev/null')
Rails::Rack::Logger.class_eval do
def before_dispatch_with_quiet_assets(env)
before_dispatch_without_quiet_assets(env) unless env['PATH_INFO'].index("/assets/") == 0
end
alias_method_chain :before_dispatch, :quiet_assets
end
