SFDX command prompt to turn on and configure the debug logs within Vscode

[jriordan22849]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It is time consuming to setup and configure debug logs in a scratch org. It is a very repetitive process from one org to another.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like a prompt where i can turn on debug logs. After the logs are enabled, I can choose the debug log level, ideally by selecting a debug log level configuration file.
I would like to have the ability to choose the user and the period the logs should be turned on for.
I would like to have configuration files with different log levels, within the prompt, I can choose which debug log level configuration file i want to use.

Describe alternatives you've considered
None

Thanks for opening this @jriordan22849, can you expand on why you need to have these level of granularity for debug log creation ? Do you want to use the Apex Replay debugger on different users or something unrelated to the replay debugger ?

hey @lcampos ,
When I am doing development, I would normally set debug logs on class properties etc to print in a debug log. I would like to have the ability to easily configure the debug logs for a user and the debug log level type. This configuration files could be maintained in the source control of the package.

This is unrelated to the replay debugger. It could be a great benefit to configure the logs from a file in Vscode instead of manually logging into a org and configuring the log for a user and the debug log levels.

Been able to configure the below in a file which can easily be transferred between orgs and configured would be of great benefit.

Please let me know if more information is required. Thanks

Ok, we'll have to think about a way of fitting this into the VSCode UX. In the meantime, have you tried using the CLI to create this records using tooling api ? All of the objects (Trace Flag, Debug Level, etc) are accessible.

hey @lcampos , is there any update in relation to this?

Hi @jriordan22849 - Thank you for this feature request as well. It isn't on our near-term roadmap, but we'll keep the feedback in mind for the future.

I'd like to support this one too, if it helps move up the roadmap - not being an IdeaExchange item, can't vote on it there
