 ## Goals
 
-- Have script-friendly error/info logs.
-
-- Remove noise from GN2.
-
-- Separate logging into different files: error logs, info logs.  Add this somewhere with Flask itself instead of re-directing STDOUT to a file.

 ### Non-goals
 
-- Logging in GN3.
-
-- Parsing logs to extract goals.
-
-- Getting rid of "gn.db" global object and in so doing removing "MySqlAlchemy" [that we really shouldn't be using].
-
-- Adding log messages to existing functions.

 ## Actual Design
 
-- Configure logger to separate logs into different files:
-
-  - INFO file - contains initial bootstrap messages and instrumentation we may have to do.
-
-  - ERROR file - contains real errors.
-
-- Have those settings - the different log files - be part of GN2 start-up script.
-
-- For error messages, use the following format for different error messages:
-
-  - "DATABASE: <message>"
-
-  - "REDIS: <message>"
-
-  - "COMPUTATION: <message>"
-
-  - "API: <message>"
-
-  - "MISC: <message>"
+* Get rid of "utility.logger" module and replace it with Flask's or Python's in-built logging.
+* Configure the logging system to automatically add the module name, line number, time-stamps etc.
 
-- Have time-stamped logs by month. E.g. "genenetwork2-08-2022.error.log" and "genenetwork2-08-2022.info.log".  This way in future, we can actually run an analysis on what breaks often in GN2.
