This example shows you how to use Maven to exclude the logback.xml
file from the final Jar file.
Note
Please, DO NOT include the
Please, DO NOT include the
logback.xml
into the final Jar file, it will cause multiple
logback.xml
files in the classpath, if someone is using your Jar, you may override other’s logging configurations accidentally.
pom.xml
<project> <build> <plugins> <!-- Make this jar executable --> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <!-- exclude logback.xml --> <excludes> <exclude>**/logback.xml</exclude> </excludes> <archive> <manifest> <mainClass>com.mkyong.core.crawler.App</mainClass> </manifest> </archive> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> </project>
You can still pass in your custom logback.xml
file via logback.configurationFile
system property like this
$ java -jar -Dlogback.configurationFile=/full_path/logback.xml final.jar
