Does temporal have a Workflow Info Logging?

Hi,

I’m setting up my first workflow on my self hosted version of temporal. I discovered that workflows and activities both have their own Info classes with lots of contextual information.

Is there a way to configure temporal to automatically add these attributes to my logging as context?

or am I better off creating my own ContextManager for logging in each workflow sort of like:

@workflow.defn
class SomeWorkflow:
    @workflow.run
    async def run(self) -> None:
        with WorkflowInfoLogger(workflow.info()):
            logger.info('we did the thing!!!')

Ideally, it would be great to have some temporal context on all the log messages we produce, that look something like:

{
    "message": "we did the thing!!!",
    "run_id": "333e788c-205b-4ace-813c-a529a1d1e3e4",
    "workflow_id": "333e788c-205b-4ace-813c-a529a1d1e3e4",
    "workflow_type": "SomeWorkflow"
}

They are already appended to each message by default if you use workflow.logger or activity.logger. They are also put in the extra dict on the log record. The LoggerAdapter for each has attributes for doing things such as turning it off as needed.
