Class BackTraceFileHandler

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Closeable, Flushable, AutoCloseable, org.jboss.logmanager.handlers.FlushableCloseable, org.jboss.logmanager.Protectable
    public class BackTraceFileHandler
extends org.jboss.logmanager.handlers.PeriodicRotatingFileHandler
    For Jboss/Wildfly: Write debug messages only when an error occurs.

    This handler holds back debug messages in a buffer and writes them only to the file when an error occurs.

    You should clear the buffer at the beginning or end of each HTTP request, to ensure that the buffer does not contain old stuff when processing the next HTTP request.

    You have to put the utilities.jar file into the Wildfly folder modules/de/stefanfrings/utils/main together with a modules.xml file: 

     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.3" name="de.stefanfrings.utils">
     <resources>
         <resource-root path="utilities.jar"/>
     </resources>
     <dependencies>
         <module name="org.jboss.logmanager"/>
     </dependencies>
 </module>

    Example of the required settings in standalone.xml: 

     <!-- Write log messages >= INFO to server.log, without exceptions -->
 <periodic-rotating-file-handler name="serverLog" autoflush="false">
    <level name="INFO"/>
    <formatter>
       <pattern-formatter pattern="%-5p %date{YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss.SSS} %X{requestID} [%t] %-50c{50} %s%n"/>
    </formatter>
    <file relative-to="jboss.server.log.dir" path="server.log"/>
    <suffix value=".yyyy-MM-dd"/>
    <append value="true"/>
 </periodic-rotating-file-handler>

 <!-- Write buffered log messages to debug.log when a warning or error occurs -->
 <custom-handler name="debugLog" class="de.stefanfrings.utils.BackTraceFileHandler" module="de.stefanfrings.utils">
     <formatter>
         <pattern-formatter pattern="%-5p %date{YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss.SSS} %X{requestID} [%t] %-50c{50} %s%e%n"/>
     </formatter>
     <properties>
         <property name="fileName" value="${jboss.server.log.dir}/debug.log"/>
         <property name="suffix" value=".yyyy-MM-dd"/>
         <property name="bufferSize" value="100"/>
         <property name="allowedLevel" value="OFF"/>
         <property name="triggerLevel" value="WARN"/>
     </properties>
 </custom-handler>

 <!-- Log level for specific classes or packages -->
 <logger category="de.stefanfrings">
     <level name="DEBUG"/>
 </logger>

 <!-- Default log level and output -->
