I'm trying to configure log4r with yml configuration file. Everything is configured as per the doc, but the log message won't include the class_name or trace. However it works fine with manual configuration without yml , but since it doesn't provide flexibility of configuring the logger, i can't do it that way. According to the doc, log4r config, logger should include trace with
trace: true
I added trace: true from config as well as from logger instance. But it's not working out. The %C in formatter pattern outputs the name of the logger used instead i.e.
logger = Log4r::Logger["development"]
gives log message in the format
150612 17:05:25 [development] DEBUG: hello there
My config.rb
application_config:
# define all pre config ...
pre_config:
custom_levels:
- DEBUG
- INFO
- PRINT
- WARN
- ERROR
- FATAL
global:
level: DEBUG
trace: 'true'
root:
level: DEBUG
trace: 'true'
parameters:
- name : x
value : aaa
- name : y
value : bbb
# define all loggers ...
loggers:
- name : development
level : DEBUG
additive : 'false'
trace : 'true'
outputters:
- stderr
- logfile
- name : production
level : WARN
additive : 'false'
trace : 'true'
outputters:
- logfile
# define all outputters (incl. formatters)
outputters:
- type : StdoutOutputter
name : stderr
level : DEBUG
formatter:
date_pattern: '%y%m%d %H:%M:%S'
pattern : "%d [%c] %l: %m "
type : PatternFormatter
- type : DateFileOutputter
name : logfile
level : DEBUG
date_pattern: '%Y%m%d'
trunc : 'false'
dirname : "logs"
filename: "development.log"
formatter :
date_pattern: '%y%m%d %H:%M:%S'
pattern : '%d %C %l: %m'
type : PatternFormatter
and my logger.rb class
require 'log4r'
require 'log4r/yamlconfigurator'
require 'log4r/outputter/datefileoutputter'
require 'log4r/outputter/consoleoutputters'
yml_config = YAML.load_file(File.expand_path('../../yaml/log4r.yml', __FILE__))
Log4r::YamlConfigurator.decode_yaml yml_config['application_config']
module MyLogger
def ms_logger
Log4r::YamlConfigurator['class_name']= class_name
return @ms_logger if @ms_logger
@ms_logger = Log4r::Logger["environment"]
@ms_logger.trace = true
@ms_logger
end
end
I included the module in the class where i need to add logger and called the logger method
ms_logger.info("hello there")
Why don't you try to configure manually without including YML configurator, that worked for me
