Comment 2 Daniel Berger 2016-02-25 16:08:24 UTC
The azure-armrest gem uses the rest-client gem internally, and that has some baked in logging support that you can use by setting your RESTCLIENT_LOG environment variable. That can point to a file, or to an IO stream (stdout, etc).

The output includes the requests being made, and the contents of each request.

Comment 3 Daniel Berger 2016-04-04 12:51:02 UTC
As of azure-armrest 0.2.4, you can now call Azure::ArmrestService.log and Azure::ArmrestService.log= to set a log file to either a file name or a file handle.

You may still also set the RESTCLIENT_LOG environment variable, though it must be set before loading the azure-armrest gem to get picked up.
