Usage

The Logstash Logback Encoder Bundle consists in a ConfiguredBundle.

To enable the LogstashLogbackEncoderBundle and specify which part of your configuration will support the bundle configuration, simply add the following code to your Service's initialize method:

    @Override
    public void initialize(Bootstrap<MyServiceConfiguration> bootstrap) {
        bootstrap.addBundle(new LogstashLogbackEncoderBundle<MyServiceConfiguration>() {
                @Override
                public LogstashLogbackEncoderConfiguration getConfiguration(MyServiceConfiguration configuration) {
                    return configuration.getLogstashLogbackEncoderConfiguration();
                }
            });
    }

You also need to add a field for LogstashLogbackEncoderConfiguration to your own Configuration class.

You can have a look at a sample project using it available at https://bitbucket.org/looztra/dropwizzardsample (see configuration file and service java file

Configuration

The LogstashLogbackEncoderConfiguration inherits its properties from the LoggingConfiguration.FileConfiguration and provides an additionnal property includeCallerInfo to include or not the callerInfo (warning getting the callerInfo is an expensive operation that should not be set to true on production environments)

TODO

• provide adjustments for the upcoming 0.7.0 version of dropwizard
