Java RemoteAppenderStreamClient-class And Method Code Example
in addition to the configuration that I previously provided, you can also create a RemoteAppenderStreamClient object programmatically and use it to send log events to a remote server.
Here is an example of how you might use the RemoteAppenderStreamClient class in a Java program to send log events to a remote server:
import ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger;
import ch.qos.logback.classic.spi.LoggingEvent;
import ch.qos.logback.classic.net.server.RemoteAppenderServer;
import ch.qos.logback.classic.net.server.ServerSocketAppender;
public class RemoteLogSender {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Logger logger = (Logger) LoggerFactory.getLogger(RemoteLogSender.class);
RemoteAppenderServer server = new RemoteAppenderServer();
server.start();
ServerSocketAppender serverSocketAppender = new ServerSocketAppender();
serverSocketAppender.setPort(8080);
serverSocketAppender.setContext(logger.getLoggerContext());
serverSocketAppender.start();
logger.addAppender(serverSocketAppender);
logger.info("This is a test log message sent to the remote server.");
server.stop();
}
}
In this example, a RemoteAppenderServer object is created and started, and a ServerSocketAppender object is created and configured to listen on port 8080. Then a log event is sent to the server, and the server is stopped.
It's important to notice that this example is only creating the server side, you still have to have a remote client that connects to the server and sends the logs.
Please note that, you can refer to the logback documentation for more information and options available.
