------------------------------------
Summary: [PatternLayout] Add an ANSI option to %message
Key: LOG4J2-1459
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1459
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Gary Gregory
Assignee: Gary Gregory
Fix For: 2.7
For {{PatternLayout}}: Add an ANSI option to {{message}} so you can say
{{%message\{ansi\}}} and allow ANSI escape syntax in your log even messages.
For example:
Using styles defined in the configuration:
{code:xml}
<PatternLayout>
<Pattern>%message{ansi}{WarningStyle=red,bold KeyStyle=white
ValueStyle=blue}%n</Pattern>
</PatternLayout>
{code}
{code:java}
logger.error("@|WarningStyle Warning!|@ Pants on @|WarningStyle fire!|@");
{code}
Using hard-coded styles:
{code:java}
logger.error("@|red Warning!|@ Pants on @|blue fire!|@");
{code}
The {{"@|Style Text|@"}} is from JANSI but the markers can be user defined
using {{BeginToken}} and {{EndToken}}:
{code:xml}
<PatternLayout>
<Pattern>%message{ansi}{BeginToken=@| EndToken=|@
WarningStyle=red,bold KeyStyle=white ValueStyle=blue}%n</Pattern>
</PatternLayout>
{code}
