Description
Some log settings in NPM are not very clear to me, as the project's documentation doesn't provide any information about them. I've searched around and found out that the logs are located in files within the "data/logs" folder.
I would like to have a better understanding of how these files are managed to avoid compromising the disk capacity of my server. Additionally, I'm curious to know if it's possible to change the logging mode.
Here are the summarized questions regarding my doubts:
By default, NPM write files for each proxy host. Are these files deleted after a certain period of time?
Is it possible to stop writing these files? If so, is there a way to have all these logs written to the container's console?

Research direction
Start by examining how files in the data/logs folder are managed and how logging is configured for proxy hosts. Determine the documented answers about retention, disabling file logs, and sending logs to the container console. Done means the project's documentation clearly addresses all three questions.
