Discard log macros and provide my own MacroMetadata?

[kristenmwegner]

I like this library, but I have a situation in which I cannot use the predefined logging macros as they are. I need to construct my own quill::MacroMetadata elsewhere, on my own terms, and provide it at the time of the log() call. Unfortunately, in the current implementation the metadata are obtained at compile-time through the log method template argument, so there is no way to do this without writing a completely new log() method. Any suggestions about how to approach this?

Creating a static constexpr Metadata object yourself and passing it to the log() method is a viable alternative to using macros. Metadata is always compile-time in this library for performance reasons.
If you could provide a code sample illustrating your requirements, it would be easier for me to further assist
