使用代码动态进行 Log4j2 的日志配置

小结

本文记录如何使用代码动态进行 Log4j2 的日志配置。

Log4j 2 XML 文件配置

使用Log4j 2 XML 文件配置比较简单,大家都能耳熟能详,这里仅提供我使用的一个示例。注意:<loggers>一定要配好,否则相应的日志文件无法送达指定目的地。如果没有配置<root>,log4j2会动生成一个。

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!--Log output priority: OFF > FATAL > ERROR > WARN > INFO > DEBUG > TRACE > ALL -->
<Configuration status="WARN">
  <Properties>
      <Property name="basePath">logs</Property>
  </Properties>
  <Appenders>
     <!-- 输出到Console -->
     <console name="Console" target="SYSTEM_OUT">
         <PatternLayout pattern=%d %p %c{1.} [%t] %m%n"/>
     </console>

    <!-- 输出到滚动更新文件 -->
    <RollingFile name="testAppender"
      fileName="logs/application.log"
      filePattern="logs/application.log.%d{MMddyyyy}">
      <PatternLayout>
        <pattern>%-5level %d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,SSS} [%t] - %msg%n
        </pattern>
      </PatternLayout>
      <!-- 日志大小达到1MB就生成新的日志文件,按以前的格式命名旧日志文件-->
      <Policies>
            <TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy interval="1" modulate="true"/>
            <SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="1MB"/>
      </Policies>
          <!-- 最多存档100个文件-->
          <DefaultRolloverStrategy max="100"/>
    </RollingFile>
  </Appenders>
 <!-- 指示相应的类的日志发送到不同的目的地-->
  <Loggers>
       <Root level="error" additivity="false">
         <AppenderRef ref="Console"/>
       </Root>
     <Logger name="aa.bb.cc.dd" level="debug" additivity="false"> 
       <AppenderRef ref="Console" level="debug"/>
       <AppenderRef ref="testAppender" level="debug"/>
     </Logger>    
     <Logger name="ee.ff.gg.hh" level="debug" additivity="false"> 
       <AppenderRef ref="Console" level="debug"/>
       <AppenderRef ref="testAppender" level="debug"/>
     </Logger>
  </Loggers>
</Configuration>

程序加载log4j2.xml配置文件

程序加载log4j2.xml配置文件有好几种方法,以下是比较简单实现的一种供参考:

import org.apache.logging.log4j.core.LoggerContext;

LoggerContext context = (org.apache.logging.log4j.core.LoggerContext) LogManager.getContext(false);
File file = new File("path/to/a/different/log4j2.xml");

// this will force a reconfiguration
context.setConfigLocation(file.toURI());

使用代码动态进行 Log4j2 的日志配置

废话不多说,直接上代码,以下代码基本上实现了与以上·log4j2.xml·配置文件同样的效果:

 final LoggerContext ctx = (LoggerContext) LogManager.getContext(false);
        final Configuration config = ctx.getConfiguration();

        final PatternLayout layout = PatternLayout.newBuilder()
                .withCharset(Charset.forName("UTF-8"))
                .withConfiguration(config)
                .withPattern("%d %p %c{1.} [%t] %m%n)
                .build();

        final Appender appender = ConsoleAppender.newBuilder()
                .withName("Console")
                .withImmediateFlush(true)
                .withLayout(layout)
                .build();

        appender.start();
        config.addAppender(appender);


        final TriggeringPolicy policy1 = TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy.newBuilder()
                .withModulate(true)
                .withInterval(1)
                .build();

        final TriggeringPolicy policy2 = SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy.createPolicy("1MB");

        Appender testAppender = RollingFileAppender.newBuilder()
                .withName("testAppender")
                .withImmediateFlush(true)
                .withFileName("logs/application.log")
                .withFilePattern("log/application.log.%d{MMddyyyy}")
                .withLayout(layout)
                .withPolicy(policy1)
                .withPolicy(policy2)
                .build();

        testAppender.start();
        config.addAppender(testAppender);


        AppenderRef ref1 = AppenderRef.createAppenderRef("Console", null, null);
        AppenderRef ref2 = AppenderRef.createAppenderRef("testAppender", null, null);
        AppenderRef[] refs = new AppenderRef[]{ref1, ref2};
        LoggerConfig loggerConfig1 = LoggerConfig.createLogger(false, Level.DEBUG, "aa.bb.cc.dd",
            "true", refs, null, config, null);
        LoggerConfig loggerConfig2 = LoggerConfig.createLogger(false, Level.DEBUG, "ee.ff.gg.hh",
                "true", refs, null, config, null);
        loggerConfig1.addAppender(appender, null, null);
        loggerConfig1.addAppender(testAppender, null, null);
        loggerConfig2.addAppender(appender, null, null);
        loggerConfig2.addAppender(testAppender, null, null);
        config.addLogger("aa.bb.cc.dd", loggerConfig1);
        config.addLogger("ee.ff.gg.hh", loggerConfig2);
        ctx.updateLoggers();

测试

测试以下代码:

import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger;
import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager;
...
省略
...
private static final Logger log = LogManager.getLogger(testApplication.class);

log.debug("This is debug");
log.warn("This is warning");
log.info("This is info");
log.trace("This is trace");
log.error("This is error");
log.fatal("This is fatal");

有以下输出,也就是除了trace没有输出外,其它的都输出了,因为日志级别设定为了Debug, 同时输出到Console和在默认目录logs下的application.log日志文件

5528 [main] DEBUG aa.bb.cc.dd.testApplication [] - This is debug
5539 [main] WARN  caa.bb.cc.dd.testApplication [] - This is warning
5539 [main] INFO  aa.bb.cc.dd.testApplication [] - This is info
11257 [main] ERROR aa.bb.cc.dd.testApplication [] - This is error
11257 [main] FATAL aa.bb.cc.dd.testApplication [] - This is fatal
