@Gallaecio, i would like to try to contribute to this issue. it is my first time contributing, would this be a good fit for me? if Yes, any pointers on where to start on this issue?. i have read the contributing to scrappy documentation. any other pointers are welcome.

Thank you

For this specific issue, I would recommend to:

1. Have a look at the Scrapy logging documentation
2. Find out how to filter out messages based on the message contents (not just the log level). We probably want to cover how to filter out based on a substring or a regular expression. There are probably many resources out there to learn how to do this in Python; the official documentation is quite complete here, although I’m not sure if it’s the most straightforward documentation if you are not already familiar to some extent with Python logging
3. Extend https://docs.scrapy.org/en/latest/topics/logging.html#advanced-customization to cover additional details or examples

@Gallaecio, Thank you for getting back to me.
Let me attempt to look on how to filter based on the log message.
Do i need to do both using regular expression and message content or i may cover any of the two?

I think substrings should be fine, it should be trivial for users to go from that to regular expressions in needed. You could alternatively mention that something other than substrings may be used, and mention regular expressions linking to https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html

@Gallaecio, i created a pull request (#4257 ) for this. could you review and get back to me with your feedback.

Thank you

@Gallaecio
I see that the issue is still open. Are there any additional features to work on in this issue? I am going through the links in this thread.

There are no additional things, although @akamanzi may be out of time to complete his proposal. If so, you could see if you can address the issue yourself, maybe build on top of his work so far.

Is this issue still open ? If Yes, then can I would like to contribute to it. I am starting my journey as a open source contributor I hope that's fine.

@yash-sethia , i haven't looked at this issue for a while. currently busy with school dissertation. you can give it a try, i suggest looking at the recommendations @Gallaecio made in the pull request i initially created (#4257), review them and build on top of that.

Is This still open, Can I take this up .

@akamanzi started at #4257, but may be too busy to continue at the moment. Maybe you can resume that work?
