Logging for dependencies of Maven plugin
Hi group,
I already asked<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29619125/logging-for-dependencies-of-maven-plugin> this on Stack Overflow, but I think it's a somewhat specialized question, so I wanted to ask here as well. I would like to influence logging of dependencies of a plugin that I'm contributing to, so that when Maven is ran in debug (-X, --debug) I can log some sensible debug information in the context of my plugin, without being flooded with debug logging from my plugin's dependencies.
This is the situation:
* Building a plugin
* The plugin depends on org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.3.6 and uses HttpClientBuilder to build a CloseableHttpClient
* When Maven runs in debug (-X, --debug) also HttpClient kicks into debug mode
* While in debug mode, HttpClient logs way, way more than I want
How can I configure my plugin so that a certain logger is not set to DEBUG, even though Maven is in debug (-X, --debug)?
I have tried various strategies of doing this programmatically, or providing the logging configurations for a few of the common frameworks that I suspect are on my classpath (SLF4J, Commons Logging, Log4j), but all to no avail.
Your help much appreciated.

Hi Sander,
the next line of the documentation should interest you:
"The following system properties are supported to configure the behavior
of this logger:"
So you can set them programmatically as well or by cmdline, no need to use
the simplelogger.properties.
If I understand you correctly, you want to specify the loglevel for third
party jars. I think that's not up to the plugin developer, but up to the
plugin user.
I've been thinking about a solution to specify the logging level for a
specific plugin execution, because often you're only interested in debug
logging of a specific plugin and not in the complete Maven execution.
This is a real challenge to solve, especially in a multithreaded
environment.
thanks,
Robert

RE: Logging for dependencies of Maven plugin
Posted by Sander Verhagen <sa...@sanderverhagen.net>.
Hi all,
Thank you, Robert. I understand that you suggest changing a configuration file that is part of the local Maven installation. While that strategy would (possibly) suffice for myself, when debugging this plugin, I would appreciate contributing back a solution for all users of this plugin that worked without changing their local Maven installation. Are there any expectations with the current implementation of Maven, that plugins would be able to extend/override the definitions of $MAVEN_HOME/conf/logging/simplelogger.properties? I had seen your link [1] before and it mentions "a class loader resource named "simplelogger.properties"", but I'm unfamiliar in how that translates to class loading scopes of plugins (although I'd suspect that it would override the entire simplelogger.properties at best, if that already, which would not be extremely helpful).
I'd say that HttpClient is using commons-logging.
Sander.

Re: Logging for dependencies of Maven plugin
Posted by Robert Scholte <rf...@apache.org>.
Hi,
This might be possible with Maven-3.1.1+ by changing the
apache-maven-3.x/conf/logging/simplelogger.properties
See SimpleLogger[1] for the configuration options.
You need to specify a specific logLevel for these packages
(org.slf4j.simpleLogger.log.a.b.c) , so it doesn't pick up the
defaultLogLevel ( as passed by Maven, e.g. -X will set defaultLogLevel to
debug)
However, I don't know which logging framework is used by HttpClient. You
might need to add a specific SLF4J adapter to the apache-maven-3.x/lib/ext
for that.
This is how it should work, but I haven't tried it yet.
thanks,
Robert
