[jira] [Created] (LOG4J2-1077) Support additional compression
formats on rollover
Remko Popma created LOG4J2-1077:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Support additional compression formats on rollover
Key: LOG4J2-1077
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1077
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Appenders
Affects Versions: 2.3
Reporter: Remko Popma
LOG4J2-1075 included support for bzip2 compression format on file rollover, using the [Apache Commons Compress|http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-compress/] library.
It would be nice to let log4j users choose the other compression formats supported by Commons Compress.
Gary [suggested|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1075?focusedCommentId=14617081&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-14617081] using {{org.apache.commons.compress.compressors.CompressorStreamFactory}}.
Considerations:
* Rollover compression to .zip and .gz formats should work without error if the commons-compress jar is not in the classpath.
* The following documentation needs to be updated:
** [DefaultRolloverStrategy|http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/appenders.html#Rollover_Strategies] section on the Appenders manual page
** Runtime dependencies page
** Core index page (again for the dependency)
