You have to call super explicitly.

But it seems as if you want to use something known as decorators. I’ve seen an experimental package for those years ago, not sure if it still works or is maintained.

At least I remember it had problems with multi headed functions.

The easiest is probably to simply call the logger explicitly at the places you need it…

Or better probably this

def foo(x, y, z) do
  log_stuff(...)
  do_foo(x, y, z)
end

defp do_foo(...)...

This way only the decorator is accessible and doesn’t have an obfuscated name.
