| === Example: Logging with Java's java.util.logging via JavaUtilLog |
| |
| It is possible to have the Jetty Server logging configured so that |
| `java.util.logging` controls the output of logging events produced by |
| Jetty. |
| |
| This example demonstrates how to configuring Jetty for logging to |
| `java.util.logging` via Jetty's own JavaUtilLog implementation. |
| |
| ____ |
| [IMPORTANT] |
| While this is a valid setup, the Jetty project recommends always using the link:#example-logging-java-util-logging[slf4j to java.util.logging configuration] for memory and performance reasons. |
| This native implementation is very non-performant and is not guaranteed to exist in the future. |
| ____ |
| |
| A convenient replacement `logging` module has been created to bootstrap your `${jetty.base}` directory for logging with `java.util.logging`. |
| |
| [source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"] |
| .... |
| [mybase]$ mkdir modules |
| [mybase]$ cd modules |
| |
| [modules]$ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jetty-project/logging-modules/master/java.util.logging-native/logging.mod |

| [modules]$ cd .. |
| |
| [mybase]$ java -jar /opt/jetty-dist/start.jar --add-to-start=logging |
| INFO: logging initialised in ${jetty.base}/start.ini (appended) |
| MKDIR: ${jetty.base}/logs |
| DOWNLOAD: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jetty-project/logging-modules/master/java.util.logging-native/jetty-logging.xml to etc/jetty-logging.xml |
| DOWNLOAD: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jetty-project/logging-modules/master/java.util.logging-native/logging.properties to resources/logging.properties |
| DOWNLOAD: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jetty-project/logging-modules/master/java.util.logging-native/jetty-logging.properties to resources/jetty-logging.properties |
| INFO: resources initialised transitively |
| INFO: resources enabled in ${jetty.base}/${jetty.base} |
| |
| [mybase]$ java -jar /opt/jetty-dist/start.jar |
| .... |
| |
| The replacement `logging.mod` performs a number of tasks. |
| |
| . `mybase` is a `${jetty.base}` directory. |
| . The jetty-distribution is unpacked (and untouched) into `/opt/jetty-dist/` and becomes the `${jetty.home}` directory for this demonstration. |
| . The `curl` command downloads the replacement `logging.mod` and puts it into the `${jetty.base}/modules/` directory for use by `mybase` only. |
| . The `start.jar --add-to-start=logging` command performs a number of steps to make the logging module available to the `${jetty.base}` |
| configuration. |
| .. The `--module=logging` command is added to the `${jetty.base}/start.ini` configuration. |
| .. Required `${jetty.base}` directories are created: `${jetty.base}/logs` and `${jetty.base}/resources`. |
| .. Required configuration files are downloaded (if not present already): `jetty-logging.properties`, and `logging.properties` |
| * The configuration files are put in the `${jetty.base}/resources/` directory. |
| .. Required `java.util.logging` initialization commands are downloaded (if not present already): `jetty-logging.xml`. |
| * The xml file is put in the `${jetty.base}/etc/` directory. |
| |
| At this point the Jetty `mybase` is configured so that the Jetty server itself will log using `java.util.logging`, using the `java.util.logging` configuration found in `mybase/resources/logging.properties`. |
| |
| The server classpath can be verified by using the `start.jar --list-config` command. |
| |
| In essence, Jetty is now configured to use `org.eclipse.jetty.util.log.JavaUtilLog`, which emit its own logging events to `java.util.logging`, making all Jetty and `java.util.logging` events emitted by the Jetty server go to `java.util.logging` for routing (to console, file, etc...). |
| |
| If there any custom `java.util.logging` handlers to be used, put the implementation jar in the `${jetty.base}/lib/logging/` directory and reference them in the `${jetty.base}/resources/logging.properties` file. |
| |
| ____ |
| [NOTE] |
| `java.util.logging` is configured via the `${jetty.base}/resources/logging.properties` file during a valid startup of Jetty. |
| |
| This means that if there is any startup errors that occur before `java.util.logging` is configured, they will likely be lost and/or not routed through your configuration. |
| |
| Other logging frameworks are more reliable in that they always initialize and configure on first use, unlike `java.util.logging`. |
| |
| * While it is possible to configure `java.util.logging` sooner, even at JVM startup, the example demonstrated here does not show this technique. |
| For more information consult the official `java.util.logging.LogManager` javadoc http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/logging/LogManager.html[documentation from Oracle]. |
