Log4j简单扩展应用Appender

日志打印是每个程序必须具备的基本功能，用于方便问题排查及恢复现场。然而日志的用途不仅仅局限于此。

可以通过日志打印做一些额外的事情，比如说，每一条符合要求的日志需要存储到阿里云日志服务上。

做这个事情，前提还不能影响程序的原本的逻辑，也不能给程序增加额外的负担。

这个时候，Log4j的Appender就是比较好选择。

看示例：

package com.longlong.log.demo;

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.apache.log4j.PropertyConfigurator;

public class LogDemo {
	
	private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(LogDemo.class);

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		PropertyConfigurator.configure("C:/Temp/demo_log4j.conf");
		
		logger.info("hello, this is my first demo for log4j appender");
		
	}

}

package com.longlong.log.log;

import org.apache.log4j.spi.LoggingEvent;

public class LogCenterService extends org.apache.log4j.AppenderSkeleton {


    public LogCenterService() {
        
    }

    @Override
    public void close() {

    }

    @Override
    public boolean requiresLayout() {
        return false;
    }

    @Override
    protected void append(LoggingEvent event) {
    	String level = event.getLevel().toString();
    	String msg = event.getRenderedMessage();
    	System.out.println("LogCenterService -> log out : level = " + level + ", msg = " + msg);
    	//TODO 调用阿里云日志服务的API接口上传日志。
    }
}

配置文件：

log4j.rootLogger = info, stdout, logcenter

#stdout
 log4j.appender.stdout = org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
 log4j.appender.stdout.Target = System.out
 log4j.appender.stdout.layout = org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
 log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern =  %d %5p %c{1}:%3L - %m%n

log4j.appender.logcenter = com.longlong.log.log.LogCenterService

示例就展示完了，很简单。看看结果：

2018-04-18 17:42:17,380  INFO LogDemo: 13 - hello, this is my first demo for log4j appender
LogCenterService -> log out : level = INFO, msg = hello, this is my first demo for log4j appender
