Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows/PowerShell bias by exclusively providing instructions for enabling debug logging using Azure PowerShell, which is traditionally associated with Windows environments. There is no equivalent method or workaround provided for Linux users, as debug logging cannot be enabled via Azure CLI. The documentation also focuses on PowerShell cmdlets and patterns, with Azure CLI only being mentioned for retrieving or deleting logs, not for enabling debug logging itself.
Recommendations:
- Clearly state the platform limitations at the beginning, emphasizing that enabling debug logging is only possible with Azure PowerShell, and suggest installation or usage options for Linux/macOS users (e.g., PowerShell Core).
- Provide explicit instructions for installing and using Azure PowerShell on Linux and macOS, including links to relevant documentation.
- If possible, advocate for parity in Azure CLI functionality or suggest alternative approaches for Linux users to achieve similar debug logging outcomes.
- Add a section or note addressing Linux/macOS users, outlining their options and any current limitations, so they are not left without guidance.
- Monitor and update the documentation if/when Azure CLI gains support for enabling debug logging, ensuring cross-platform parity.
