Log4j2 - 配置

官方文档：http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/index.html

1 概述

Log4j2的配置包含四种方式，其中3种都是在程序中直接调用Log4j2的方法进行配置的，此处不作讲解，文档可见Extending Log4j 2 与 Programmatic Log4j Configuration；还有一种是我们最常用的用文件进行配置，可以是XML、JSON、YAML、properties format，

这里我们用XML为例来详细介绍。

2 默认配置

随着log4j2的start，log4j2会自动定位classpath下的log4j2.xml，若配置文件不存在，则取默认配置。

默认配置：

  • A ConsoleAppender attached to the root logger.
  • A PatternLayout set to the pattern "%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%t] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n" attached to the ConsoleAppend

若将默认配置改写为log4j2.xml，如下

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

    <Configuration status="WARN">

      <Appenders>

        <Console name="Console" target="SYSTEM_OUT">

          <PatternLayout pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%t] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n"/>

        </Console>

      </Appenders>

      <Loggers>

        <Root level="error">

          <AppenderRef ref="Console"/>

        </Root>

      </Loggers>

    </Configuration>

3 日志级别

Log4j2把日志打印分为6个级别，级别由低到高分别为trace < debug <info < warn < error < fatal，介绍如下：

  • trace：是追踪，就是程序推进以下，你就可以写个trace输出，所以trace应该会特别多，不过没关系，我们可以设置最低日志级别不让他输出。

  • debug：调试，一般用作最低级别，trace压根不用。

  • info：输出一下你感兴趣的或者重要的信息，这个用的最多了。

  • warn：有些信息不是错误信息，但是也要给程序员的一些提示，类似于eclipse中代码的验证不是有error和warn（不算错误但是也请注意，比如以下depressed的方法）。

  • error：错误信息。用的也比较多。

  • fatal：级别比较高了。重大错误，这种级别你可以直接停止程序了，是不应该出现的错误么！不用那么紧张，其实就是一个程度的问题。

规则说明：若root的级别为error，即 <Root level="error"> ,则仅允许error与fatal可以输出，其他级别信息无法输出。

4 可加性（Additivity）

4.1 Additivity（待完善）

简单描述，当name1的logger输出时，此时若包含name2的输出，且name2的additivity为false，则name2的信息无法输出。

4.2 隔离输出

当我们需要某个包、某个类、某个名字下指定输出级别时，仅需在<Loggers></Loggers>节点中定义对应的日志记录器logger，logger用于记录范围。

<Loggers>

    <Logger name="包名|包名+类名|名称" level="trace">

        <AppenderRef ref="Console"/>

  </Logger>

    <Root level="error">

        <AppenderRef ref="Console"/>

    </Root>

</Loggers>

5 Appender

用于定义输出方式，如下：

  • 控制台
  • 文件（固定周期，每天使用一个日志文件记录；固定大小，超过指定大小则记录到一个新日志文件中）
  • 数据库
  • 远程日志接口程序

6.Configuration 属性

6.1 monitorInterval，自动重新加载配置（Automatic Reconfiguration）

Log4j2支持动态调整配置，自动识别加载，减少了线上系统重启的代价。设置monitorInterval，单位秒，最小5秒，如下：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<Configuration monitorInterval="30">

...

</Configuration>

6.2 status

设置为debug，用户可以在eclipse的控制台中看到log4j2启动与加载配置文件时的打印信息，如

7.配置日志输出格式（Pattern）

  • %d 输出日志时间点的日期或时间，默认格式为ISO8601，也可以在其后指定格式，比如：%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss}，输出类似：2006-01-18 17:50:22'
  • %t 产生该日志事件的线程名
  • %p 日志的log_level，如DEBUG、WARN或者INFO
  • %c 输出所属的类目，通常就是所在类的全名，如“com.mlq.love”
  • %m 日志的内容，同%msg
  • %l 输出日志事件的发生位置，包括类目名、发生的线程，以及在代码中的行数。如Wite2Database.main(Wite2Database.java:18)
  • %n 输出一个回车换行符
  • %M 方法名称
  • %xEx The same as the %throwable conversion word but also includes class packaging information.

8 属性替换（PropertySubstitution）

如： $${date:yyyy-MM} 。
