Hello everyone,
last thursday i had a small chat with christian grobmeier on a java user group meeting i am doing a lot of search and analytics in my daily business and i am very interessted in developing a component that directly logs into a solr/elasticsearch index Over a year ago i allready did some development on a solr appender if you are interesetedyou can have a look at :http://sourceforge.net/projects/log4jsolr.slugdev.p/ I like to develop a new component for log4j 2 My questions to you - is there allready done or planned in that direction? - where would such a component would fits best to log2j? (appender? plugin?) - whats the best way to configure an "appender"? in my first versionof the solr appender i had a lot of optional field mapping whicht made the configuration within the log4j.xml quite big would be great to get some feedback. this could be a good way to connect log events directly to a tool like kibana regards Markus Klose
