[jira] [Updated] (SOLR-15610) Support json formatted logging via conf: add log4j-layout-template-json to 'server'

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15610?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Chris M. Hostetter updated SOLR-15610:
--------------------------------------
    Attachment: SOLR-15610.patch
        Status: Open  (was: Open)

Here's a patch with the gradle/license/sha1 file additions.

One thing i'm not clear on though is why {{./gradlew --write-locks}} doesn't  seem to have added the new jar to {{versions.lock}} ... but that may just be that i don't fully understand when/whyhow gradle decides if it's necessary to list a jar in that file? ([~dawid.weiss] ?)

 

{{./gradlew check}} doesn't seem to mind.

> JSON Formatted logging is becoming wide spread enough that it seems like we should support it as an option in Solr.
> Assuming we upgrade to log4j >= 2.14.0  (SOLR-15609) then this becomes _possible_ for people to do by:
>  # downloading the {{log4j-layout-template-json.jar}} that corresponds with the lof4j version used by their solr version
>  # include the {{log4j-layout-template-json.jar}} in the (jetty) classpath via {{SOLR_OPTS}} (can't be loaded as a solr plugin because it needs to be used on startup)
>  # specify their own {{LOG4J_PROPS}} file that configures log4j to use a {{JsonTemplateLayout}}
> ..but steps #1 and #2 are a bit hairy.  Particularly step #1 as it means every time users upgrade solr they have to pay careful attention to if/when the log4j deps change.
> ----
> I would like to propose that we make this easier, by adding {{log4j-layout-template-json}} as a dependency for the "server" module, so that it is available out of the box when running solr – that way JSON logging can be enabled easily with a simple {{LOG4J_PROPS}} change.
