[jira] Created: (LOG4J2-44) log4j java date wise log every X MB
log4j java date wise log every X MB
-----------------------------------
Key: LOG4J2-44
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-44
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Appenders
Reporter: Tushar
Priority: Minor
a log roll over that makes a new file every x MB/ KB but the current file is archived with a full date-time--random-int-to-make- unique stamp
so if the file is myProj_A.log after x MB is renamed to
myProj_A_2010_09_10_02_48_02_XX34334.log (year-month-day- time ...) and so on
Is there a pattern/ property to do this already?
can see http://www.simonsite.org.uk/ and http://www.simonsite.org.uk/javadoc/org/apache/log4j/appender/TimeAndSizeRollingAppender.html here the code is a little mixed up (we want test and real code in seperate src roots) - and not sure if it works completely but it says it does. but it has our requirements.
Code should write out buffer in bits instead of blocking for a long time emptying full buffer when buffer is full Or is that done by nio ?
build and run script to test with params to control logging, number of threads, amount of data logged so we can see that the logs are rolling as planned we want the final roller to roll every day but can keep that as hour and minute params (so final will be 24 hours and 0 minutes, but for testing can be 5 minutes only, similarly size can be in KB) also need format of file name with prefix for folder so the root log folder can be c:\log then we specify the dynamic sub folder like yyyy\mm\dd meaning make sub folders for current year, inside that for month and inside that for day and finally the file name format with a prefix like myApp_{yyyy_mm_dd_HH_II_SS) and post fix so the final file will be in folder (example) C:\log\2010\10\29\myApp_2010_10_29_14_34_22_randXYZ.txt where randXYZ stand for some random text that is added to make the file name unique (as required or can use java inbuilt getTempFile function ...)

If you are trying to build Log4j2 then you need Maven 2 or 3. The command is mvn clean install.

-----------------------------------
http://people.apache.org/~rgoers/log4j2/manual/appenders.html#RollingFileAppender mentions the OnStartupTriggeringPolicy.
The example in that same documentation shows how to use ${date:format} to add date elements to your path structure. For the above do:
/archive/path/$${date:yyyy/MM} or /archive/path/$${date:yyyy}/$${date:MM}

i have not tested with log4j2
saw an email where you answered a query about how to use log4j2 in a new project and how to use it in an existing project with the bridge
Can you make the wiki pages for that? I will test after that.
For the async appender sample look here http://sel2in.com/pages/log4j/TespAppLog4j1.zip or the attachment TespAppLog4j1.zip

Tushar commented on LOG4J2-44:
------------------------------
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-59 issue for latest build
i will show you the async appender sample tomorrow - what would be good to have is when it gets very busy to increse its buffer or drop items OR block when TOO big (optimal and MAX size) - all as properties
right now are prod breaks as threads get blocked when too much logging happens while many txns are happening ... i would rather see log4j stop logging (as a preference) then block and causing are server to crash. the only long term fix we found was to log less (we were logging too many times at places and at one meta data reload - logging too long a string - a whole hash map made of a whole 'static' data table)
but at other times too we have seen thread dead lock and the histo and thread dump via jstack says there were log4j objects .... i can copy paste the exact eroror msg if you need

-----------------------------------
I have added an AsynchAppender and I have updated the documentation to include information about migrating from Log4j 1.x. Please let me know if there is anything left to do on this issue.

RollingAppenderTimeAndSizeTest should illustrate the concept you are asking about. The pattern indicates the file should roll every minute. The %i indicates that it should increment the counter and roll when the size is exceeded. Sometimes when the test executes it will all happen in the same minute and sometimes it will span two minutes.
To see visually that it works you will have to remove the call the deleteDir() in the cleanupClass() method.

I'm wondering if you have had a chance to test this. Significant enhancements have been made since June although I can't say the RollingFileAppender has changed much.

------------------------------
see http://sel2in.com/pages/log4j/2012march10.txt for mvn clean install output on your old 25 Oct 2011 build which I ran only today
i see that the svn branch no longer exists
do you have a new branch?
sorry for the late reply but we temporarily fixed our prod problem by combing async with our rolling file appender
Is there a way to add a listener to rolling file appender so we can do some custom task (like encrypt and zip) when a file is rolled?
Or are you planning to add zip+encrypt of old logs (basically we do not want log4j to delete any of its logs, just want to archive them till they are manually deleted)

Tushar commented on LOG4J2-44:
------------------------------
* If we dont already have a way to roll over on start up. i think its there.
* and would be great if the out file can be dynamic - based on a java simple date format in some parts so we have a root path + pattern
/archive/path/{YYYY}/{MM}/
Need to make a simple date format, parse the date and year and then make the file object call mkdirs() this way we dont need any external job to organise the archive except download and delete files from server !
besides this i will give what is there a test and let close this when i get a chance to get from trunk ...

Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-44:
-----------------------------------
The RollingFileAppender using the DefaultRolloverStrategy in my Log4J 2.0 branch can include both a timestamp and an integer as part of the pattern. The integer is not random but a counter within the time range. Will that suffice or is a random integer required for some reason?

Need to make a simple date format (only the parts in side {} are to be parsed by simple date format), parse the date and then make the file object, call mkdirs() this way we don't need any external job to organise the archive except download and delete files from server !
besides this i will give what is there a test and let close this when i get a chance to get from trunk ...

Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-44:
-----------------------------------
To build you run mvn clean install from the root directory of the project. If you want to skip unit tests add -Dmaven.test.skip. I would suggest you run them as I haven't done a build on Windows - at least, not recently - so I'd appreciate knowing if there are any test failures. After you run that you will have a maven repository installed at ~/.m2/repository with the jars in it. They will also be in each subproject's target directory.

Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-44:
-----------------------------------
Log4j2 was moved from my experimental branch to a proper trunk at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/log4j2/trunk. Since your post in October the Flume appender was also broken out into a subproject (actually two - one for Flume 0.9.4 and the other for Flume 1.0).
I see from the output in your link above you have 9 unit test failures. I'd appreciate it if you could download the latest source and run the build again and then create a new Jira issue for those and attach the output as well as the output from each of the unit tests (you will find them in log4j2-core/target/surefire-reports/ with the file name matching the full class name and an extension of .txt).
I'd like to see what you did for the Async appender. I've contemplated creating one.
I'm sure it would be fairly easy to add a listener to the rolling file appender. I will look into that. The rolling file appender will already zip if the filePattern has a .zip extension.
The current documentation is temporarily at http://people.apache.org/~rgoers/log4j2. That will move to the main Logging web site with the first release of Log4j2. (After looking at the documentation I notice that it doesn't mention that it will compress to zip or gzip if the file extension is specified in the filePattern. I will fix that). If you specify a very large number for "max" on the RolloverStrategy then none of the log files will be deleted.
Log4j2 currently does everything you are mentioning except a) it doesn't encrypt and b) buffering is handled by whatever FileOutputStream does. Again, these can be tailored if required.

------------------------------
Summary of improvement:
A log roll over that makes a new file every x MB/ KB (and a new one every day & on app restart) but the current file is archived with a full date-time--random-int-to-make- unique stamp
Optionally zips and encrypts the old file into a sub folder (which is configurable on date like yyyy/mm/dd )
Appender should write out buffer in parts instead of blocking for a long time (emptying full buffer when buffer is full)

i will show you the async appender sample tomorrow someone else wrote it but uses the standard async logger and attaches the rolling logger to that- what would be good to have is when it gets very busy to increse its buffer or drop items OR block when TOO big (optimal and MAX size) - all as properties
right now are prod breaks as threads get blocked when too much logging happens while many txns are happening ... i would rather see log4j stop logging (as a preference) then block and causing are server to crash. the only long term fix we found was to log less (we were logging too many times at places and at one meta data reload - logging too long a string - a whole hash map made of a whole 'static' data table)
but at other times too we have seen thread dead lock and the histo and thread dump via jstack says there were log4j objects .... i can copy paste the exact error msg if you want to see that too

> myProj_A_2010_09_10_02_48_02_XX34334.log (year-month-day- time ...) and so on
> Is there a pattern/ property to do this already?
> can see http://www.simonsite.org.uk/ and http://www.simonsite.org.uk/javadoc/org/apache/log4j/appender/TimeAndSizeRollingAppender.html here the code is a little mixed up (we want test and real code in seperate src roots) - and not sure if it works completely but it says it does. but it has our requirements.
> Code should write out buffer in bits instead of blocking for a long time emptying full buffer when buffer is full Or is that done by nio ?
> build and run script to test with params to control logging, number of threads, amount of data logged so we can see that the logs are rolling as planned we want the final roller to roll every day but can keep that as hour and minute params (so final will be 24 hours and 0 minutes, but for testing can be 5 minutes only, similarly size can be in KB) also need format of file name with prefix for folder so the root log folder can be c:\log then we specify the dynamic sub folder like yyyy\mm\dd meaning make sub folders for current year, inside that for month and inside that for day and finally the file name format with a prefix like myApp_{yyyy_mm_dd_HH_II_SS) and post fix so the final file will be in folder (example) C:\log\2010\10\29\myApp_2010_10_29_14_34_22_randXYZ.txt where randXYZ stand for some random text that is added to make the file name unique (as required or can use java inbuilt getTempFile function ...)
