Say I have two Java classes: foo.ClassA
and bar.ClassB
. To print (root) exception stacktrace, I need to print only frames of foo
package. My question is how exactly I can configure Logback to do that.
I know that the feature is already implemented in Logback, and I need to use evaluator
. But I couldn't figure it out. I tried the example described here without success (no surprise).
Can anyone give the exact configuration for filtering stacktrace frames?
<configuration>
<evaluator name="FILTER">
<expression>¿what should I put here?</expression>
</evaluator>
<appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
<encoder>
<pattern>[%thread] %-5level - %msg%n%rEx{full, FILTER}</pattern>
</encoder>
</appender>
<root level="DEBUG">
<appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
</root>
</configuration>
I contacted Tomasz Nurkiewicz (the author of the blog linked in the question) and he kindly answered my question. I'm posting the answer, just in case:
While printing stack trace, to filter lines from bar
package use the following:
<configuration>
<appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
<encoder>
<pattern>[%thread] %-5level - %msg%n%rEx{full, bar}</pattern>
</encoder>
</appender>
...
</configuration>
I wanted to use it in my web application (Tomcat+Spring+Hibernate+etc). So I configured logback with the following not to print any stack trace line from org.something
packages (e.g. org.apache
, org.springframework
, org.hibernate
, etc):
<configuration>
<appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
<encoder>
<pattern>[%thread] %-5level - %msg%n%rEx{full, org}</pattern>
</encoder>
</appender>
...
</configuration>
Thanks Tomasz!
