Logback

/WEB-INF/config/logback-[mode].xml

All the content generators in Berlioz/Bastille use a logging facade (slf4j ) so that the logging framework can be left at the discretion of the developers.

However, Berlioz automatically loads configuration files for the Logback  logging framework using the XML syntax.

See Logback configuration  for details.

Sample config

Here are sample logback configurations.

Development mode

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration debug="false" scan="true" scanPeriod="30 seconds">
 
  <!-- Context name -->
  <contextName>MyBerliozApp</contextName>
 
  <!-- Sends logs to Logback's Beagle Eclipse plugin -->
  <consolePlugin />
 
  <!-- Console appender -->
  <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
    <encoder>
      <pattern>[%thread] %-5level %logger{30} - %msg %n</pattern>
    </encoder>
  </appender>

  <!-- Some libraries can be chatty... -->
  <logger name="net.sf.ehcache"       level="INFO" />
  <logger name="org.weborganic.flint" level="INFO" />

  <!-- Berlioz -->
  <logger name="org.weborganic.berlioz" level="INFO" />
 
  <!-- Bastille -->
  <logger name="com.weborganic.bastille" level="INFO" />
  <logger name="com.weborganic.bastille.flint" level="WARN" />
 
  <root level="DEBUG">
    <appender-ref ref="STDOUT"/>
  </root>
 
</configuration>

Production mode

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

  <!-- Context -->

  <appender name="GENERAL"
