SiftingAppender with no Default value discriminator


I use SiftingAppender and RollingFileAppender to separate log folders with a discriminator key.

<appender name="TEST_LOGGER" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.sift.SiftingAppender">
  <discriminator>
    <key>discKey</key>
    <defaultValue>Default</defaultValue>
  </discriminator>
  <sift>
...
  </sift>
</appender>

But I just need the discriminator keys that set and don't need a folder with name of defaultValue. is there any way to just separate needed folders and remove others?

Solution

  • After a lot of searching in Logback docs, I found that by using the filtering method, it is possible to register the required values and not register the other values.

    <appender name="TEST_LOGGER" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.sift.SiftingAppender">
       <discriminator>
         <key>discKey</key>
         <defaultValue>Default</defaultValue>
       </discriminator>
    
      <filter class="ch.qos.logback.core.filter.EvaluatorFilter">
       <evaluator class="ch.qos.logback.classic.boolex.JaninoEventEvaluator">
          <expression>
            mdc.get("discKey") == null
          </expression>
       </evaluator>
         <OnMismatch>NEUTRAL</OnMismatch>
         <OnMatch>DENY</OnMatch>
      </filter>
    
      <sift>
      ...
      </sift>
    </appender>
    

    Above code do not register Default folder.
