Configuration of Logback

Usually you want to use different logging settings when running in test, dev or on production. The best way to configure Logback is to follow the excellent guide at: http://logback.qos.ch/manual/configuration.html.

There are two main ways how you can configure Logback.

Using logback.xml

By default Logback will look for a file called logger.xml in the conf directory of your application. Wisdom provides a default logging configuration generated into src/main/configuration.

Using Java system property to specify link to logback.xml

Logback evaluates a Java system property named logback.configurationFile. This approach is handy when you launch your application in a service file, or a script:

./chameleon.sh -Dlogback.configurationFile=/your/conf/logger.xml

This allows you to use one logging configuration for all your instances. More about that approach here: http://logback.qos.ch/manual/configuration.html.
