What filter should I use to define particular level to be logged with appender? For example:
java:
LOGGER.debug("Debug message");
LOGGER.info("Info message");
LOGGER.warn("Warn message");
LOGGER.error("Error message");
LOGGER.fatal("Fatal message");
log4j2.xml:
<Configuration>
<Appenders>
<Console name="info-stdout-message">
<PatternLayout pattern="[%logger{36}] %message %n" />
<ThresholdFilter level="info"/>
</Console>
<Console name="detailed-stdout-message">
<PatternLayout pattern="[%logger{36}] [%level] %message %n" />
</Console>
<File name="file-appender" fileName="logs/debug.log">
<PatternLayout pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss dd.mm} [%t] [%-5level] %logger{36} - %msg %n" />
</File>
</Appenders>
<Loggers>
<Root level="debug">
<AppenderRef ref="file-appender" level="debug" />
<AppenderRef ref="info-stdout-message" level="info"/>
<AppenderRef ref="detailed-stdout-message" level="info"/>
</Root>
</Loggers>
</Configuration>
The file output is fine, but in console I have such result:
[application.Main] [INFO] Info message
[application.Main] Info message
[application.Main] [WARN] Warn message
[application.Main] Warn message
[application.Main] [ERROR] Error message
[application.Main] Error message
[application.Main] [FATAL] Fatal message
[application.Main] Fatal message
I need info-stdout-message
appender to output only INFO messages, while detailed-stdout-message
to output all except INFO. So, the console output should looks like:
[application.Main] Info message
[application.Main] [WARN] Warn message
[application.Main] [ERROR] Error message
[application.Main] [FATAL] Fatal message
I can't find out how to prevent filters respect level inheritance. Is it possible to do this?
This works:
<Console name="info-stdout-message">
<PatternLayout pattern="[%logger{36}] %message %n" />
<Filters>
<!-- Now deny warn, error and fatal messages -->
<ThresholdFilter level="warn" onMatch="DENY" onMismatch="NEUTRAL"/>
<!-- This filter accepts info, warn, error, fatal and denies debug/trace -->
<ThresholdFilter level="info" onMatch="ACCEPT" onMismatch="DENY"/>
</Filters>
</Console>
