             Summary: log4j-starter pom modules for dependency management
                 Key: LOG4J2-1776
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1776
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Starters
            Reporter: Matt Sicker


This is the main feature for the Log4j Starter epic (LOG4J2-1775).

{code}
groupId: org.apache.logging.log4j.starter
artifactId: log4j-starter-*
{code}

* core: just log4j-core basically
* async (for AsyncLogger; brings in LMAX disruptor)
* log4j-spi: log4j-slf4j-impl, log4j-jul, log4j-jcl, log4j-1.2-api
* slf4j-spi: slf4j-impl, jcl-over-slf4j, jul-to-slf4j (same dependency set as spring-boot-starter-log4j2)
* logback (for log4j-to-slf4j, slf4j-spi, logback; this helps aid migration to log4j-api and promotes it as a general use logging API)
* appender-async-conversant
* appender-async-jctools
* appender-cassandra
* appender-couchdb
* appender-jms
* appender-jpa
* appender-kafka
* appender-mongodb
* appender-smtp
* appender-zeromq
* config-json
* config-yaml
* layout-csv
* layout-jansi (for windows users and coloured log messages)
* layout-json (unless this has been ported to not require jackson anymore?)
* layout-xml
* layout-yaml
* script-groovy

I may have missed a few, but the base set of starters should at least correspond to all optional dependencies in log4j-core or the addon modules. For the jms, jpa, and smtp (log4j-core) appenders, we could either make add in a default provider (e.g., ActiveMQ, Hibernate, and Sun Mail respectively) or split those into provider-specific starters.
