Extend daily log file appender
Hi,
For GDPR we should have some log4 log appender (extended from daily log file appender) that encrypts the log information.
Anybody aware of some appender doing that? If not can somebody provide sample to create own appender based on the default daily file logger?
Regards
Walter

Take a look at the RewriteAppender (https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/appenders.html#RewriteAppender). That may be a good start.

I take a look in that direction, true that the appender logic is not to be amended, only the text to be logged, so converter should be enough.

Antwort: [Newsletter] Extend daily log file appender
Posted by Jo...@rohde-schwarz.com.
Hi,
Which log4<X> are you using? For log4net you can implement a LockingModel
[1] for the (rolling) file appender that wraps the aquired stream. This
works quite nicely for compression (wrap the underlaying file stream in a
gzip stream [2]) or encryption (wrap in crypto stream [3]).
Just ensure the configuration can't be altered; else it's trivial to
disable encryption...
