## Parse-logger-config-text
Parse JSON text into a typed `LoggerConfig`. This API is useful when you want validation and inspection of config data before turning it into a runtime logger.
### Interface
```moonbit
pub fn parse_logger_config_text(input : String) -> LoggerConfig raise ConfigError {}
```
#### input
- `input : String` - Raw JSON text matching the supported logger config schema.
#### output
- `LoggerConfig` - Parsed typed configuration value.
### Explanation
Detailed rules explaining key parameters and behaviors
- Parsing is separated from runtime construction.
- This API is ideal for validating, editing, or inspecting config values before calling `build_logger(...)`.
- Supported keys are intentionally constrained to stable built-in sink shapes and formatter options.
- The error surface is `ConfigError` rather than silent fallback behavior.
### How to Use
Here are some specific examples provided.
#### When Need Validation Before Runtime Build
When config should be reviewed before creating the logger:
```moonbit
let config = parse_logger_config_text(raw) catch {
err => return
}
let logger = build_logger(config)
```
In this example, parsing and building remain separate phases.
#### When Need To Inspect Parsed Values
When config should be normalized into typed values first:
```moonbit
let config = parse_logger_config_text(raw) catch {
err => return
}
println(config.target)
```
In this example, the parsed object can be inspected or rewritten before runtime use.
### Error Case
e.g.:
- If `input` is invalid JSON, parsing raises `ConfigError`.
- If supported fields have wrong types or unsupported enum text, parsing raises `ConfigError`.
### Notes
Notes are here.
1. Prefer this API when you need typed config inspection before building.
2. Prefer `parse_and_build_logger(...)` when one-step bootstrapping is enough.
3. Keep external config files aligned with the supported stable schema.
4. Parsed config remains reusable across multiple runtime builders if needed.
