Fully document monolog bundle configuration

[Seldaek]

Here are a few things that got added today that would be nice to find in the docs I think for discoverability:

• I added many missing handlers to the config and documented the whole thing in the code, it'd be great if someone could port it over to the real docs https://github.com/symfony/MonologBundle/blob/master/DependencyInjection/Configuration.php#L24-155
• Regex based exclusion of 404 errors from the logs Add anti-404 activation strategy service/class monolog-bundle#5 (comment)
• You can now define additional channels without having to create a tagged service Add a "monolog:channels" configuration option  monolog-bundle#39 (comment)

That is all, thanks!

I'll fix (1) today.

@Seldaek to which symfony version does this apply?

[stof]

@wouterj MonologBundle is not released in sync with Symfony anymore. MonologBundle 2.4 has been released today with new features compatible with Symfony 2.3+

[wouterj]

@stof thanks! So, we need to document this in 2.3+?

[stof]

yes

For (1), I don't think we've done this yet, but how about just linking to the PHP docs from the config reference section? I'd like to not duplicate all of these little details. For more complex handlers, we could additionally include an example.

I don't see anything wrong with this. I guess we use something like this in the documentation of the HTTP status code constants, don't we?

what about documenting activation_strategy as well?
i could not find any doc/cookbook for it

[weaverryan]

I didn't even know about activation_strategy :) (https://github.com/symfony/MonologBundle/blob/master/DependencyInjection/Configuration.php#L72).

Yes, I think we should just add a link from our reference section to the GitHub source code for the above-linked Configuration class. That would go a long way to helping people find handlers and configuration options that they probably don't know exist. The docs above the Configuration class are really great.

It's been two years since this issue was opened. I think it's time to close it as "won't fix". Besides, I don't see the point of duplicating the information that is already included in the PHPdoc. And if we really want to put that information in a real documentation, don't you think it should be included in the Monolog doc and not in Symfony doc or Monolog bundle doc?
