Summary:              Idea for fluent API improvement
Issue Type:           Improvement
Assignee:             SLF4J developers list
Created:              15/Dec/21 1:09 AM
Priority:             Major
Reporter:             Adrian Shum
Description:
  I found current Fluent API design a bit hard to read for two reasons:
   * method names are too verbose
   * Slightly counter-intuitive to have arguments before the log message
  
   
  
  Especially the second issue, people (at least for me) found it hard to read as I need to twist my mind to find corresponding arguments before and after the message.
  
  imho it looks a bit better to provide alternatives like this (totally fine to keep the original form)
  {code:java}
  logger.atDebug()
          .message("Temperature of {} rise from {} to {}", country)
          .arg(oldTemp).arg(newTemp).log();
  
  // equivalent to 
  
  logger.atDebug()
          .addArgument(country).addArgument(oldTemp).addArgument(newTemp)
          .log("Temperature of {} rise from {} to {}");
  
  // Compare to the old-style
  logger.debug("Temperature of {} rise from {} to {}", country, oldTemp, newTemp);
  {code}
