Typeset.logback

Simple JSON layout component for Logback Classic, with Clojure and SLF4J 2+ key value attribute support.

Installation

Clojars Project

;; tools.deps
com.kroo/typeset.logback {:mvn/version "0.7"}

;; Leiningen
[com.kroo/typeset.logback "0.7"]

Note

While this library is designed for and written in Clojure, it still works in other JVM languages. To use it, add Clojars as a Maven repository.

Usage

Use Typeset.logback with the default options:

<!-- logback.xml -->
<configuration scan="false" scanPeriod="5 seconds">
    <appender name="CONSOLE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
        <encoder class="ch.qos.logback.core.encoder.LayoutWrappingEncoder">
            <layout class="com.kroo.typeset.logback.JsonLayout" />
        </encoder>
    </appender>

    <logger name="TEMP" level="DEBUG"/>

    <root level="INFO">
        <appender-ref ref="CONSOLE" />
    </root>
</configuration>

Use Typeset.logback and configure the various options:

<!-- logback.xml -->
<configuration scan="false" scanPeriod="5 seconds">
    <appender name="CONSOLE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
        <encoder class="ch.qos.logback.core.encoder.LayoutWrappingEncoder">
            <layout class="com.kroo.typeset.logback.JsonLayout">
                <!-- The following are the default values. -->
                <prettyPrint>false</prettyPrint>
                <removeNullKeyValuePairs>true</removeNullKeyValuePairs>
                <removeEmptyKeyValuePairs>false</removeEmptyKeyValuePairs>
                <timestampFormat>yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'</timestampFormat>
                <escapeNonAsciiCharacters>false</escapeNonAsciiCharacters>
                <sortKeysLexicographically>false</sortKeysLexicographically>
                <appendLineSeparator>true</appendLineSeparator>
                <includeLoggerContext>false</includeLoggerContext>
                <includeLevelValue>false</includeLevelValue>
                <includeMdc>true</includeMdc>
                <flattenMdc>true</flattenMdc>
                <includeMarkers>true</includeMarkers>
                <includeException>true</includeException>
                <includeExData>true</
                <!-- This is an example of how to add modules to the jackson object mapper -->
                <jacksonModules>
                    com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype.joda.JodaModule,
                    com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype.jsr310.JavaTimeModule
                </jacksonModules>"
            </layout>
        </encoder>
    </appender>

    <logger name="TEMP" level="DEBUG"/>

    <root level="INFO">
        <appender-ref ref="CONSOLE" />
    </root>
</configuration>

Example log output (with pretty printing enabled):

{
  "timestamp" : "2023-06-02T14:43:55.685557Z",
  "level" : "WARN",
  "level_value" : 30000,         // <includeLevelValue>true</includeLevelValue>
  "logger.name" : "my.logger",
  "logger.context_name" : "default",  // <includeLoggerContext>true</includeLoggerContext>
  "logger.thread_name" : "my.thread",
  "message" : "My formatted message",
  "markers" : [ "my-marker" ],
  "mdc" : {                      // <includeMdc>true</includeMdc>
    "some-id" : "24676689-cffa-461b-964e-d3fedafe31b5"
  },
  // SLF4J key value pairs.
  "things" : [ 1, {
    "hi" : {
      "there" : 2
    }
  }, 3, 4 ],
  "@timestamp" : {               // Duplicate keys get "@" prepended to them.
    "foo" : {
      "bar" : 12.4
    }
  },
}

If you need a structured logging frontend for Clojure, Epilogue pairs perfectly with Typeset.logback.

Troubleshooting

If for some reason you are not getting any logs or are missing some, either your configuration is incorrect or an exception is likely being thrown somewhere. To get some troubleshooting info, you can edit your logback.xml file to include debug="true" (or add the -Dlogback.debug=true JVM option).

<!-- logback.xml -->
<configuration debug="true" ...>
  ...
</configuration>

If an exception occurs while Typeset.logback is formatting a log event, an "ERROR" log will be appended to the Logback appender that contains details of the exception.
