Is there a better way to log request body?

[Eric Francis]

Hello, I am currently logging requests like so:

puts response.request.instance_variable_get(:@raw_request).body

Is there a better way to do this?

I've found this example in the code:

    

     # Turns on logging

    #

    #   class Foo

    #     include HTTParty

    #     logger Logger.new('http_logger'), :info, :apache

    #   end

    def logger(logger, level=:info, format=:apache)

      default_options[:logger]     = logger

      default_options[:log_level]  = level

      default_options[:log_format] = format

    end

When I add 

logger Logger.new('http_logger'), :info, :apache 

to my code I get this error: 

NoMethodError: undefined method `new' for HTTParty::Logger:Module

Thanks!

Eric

Also, is there a way to format text as code?
