Here is precisely what I created so far:

* base abstract appender handling MongoDB connectivity [1]
* standard appender [2] + tests [3]
* access appender (tested with Tomcat) [4] + tests [5]
* configuration examples [6]

By quick googling I found several other community implementations: [7], [8], [9]. Looks like my implementation is the only one capable of storing access logs as well, e.g.:

{
    "_id" : ObjectId("4d98cc4f7abb95e59279e183"),
    "timeStamp" : ISODate("2011-04-03T19:36:47.339Z"),
    "server" : "localhost",
    "remote" : {
        "host" : "0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1",
        "user" : "tomcat",
        "addr" : "0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1"
    },
    "request" : {
        "uri" : "/manager/images/tomcat.gif",
        "protocol" : "HTTP/1.1",
        "method" : "GET",
        "sessionId" : "1C6357816D9EEFD31F6D9D154D87308A",
"userAgent" : "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; pl-PL; rv:1.9.2.16) Gecko/20110323 Ubuntu/10.10 (maverick) Firefox/3.6.16",
        "referer" : "http://localhost:8080/manager/html";
    },
    "response" : {
        "contentLength" : NumberLong(1934),
        "statusCode" : 200
    }
}

We should now revise all available implementations and build final one based on best ideas from all of them. The only issue I see is integration testing: at least my tests require running MongoDB instance somewhere. This is a major drawback for both continuous integration of Lobgack extensions and for all developers, not necessarily interested in this particular extension.

Christian Trutz - thanks for creating the project structure.

Hi Christian,

Tomasz created a jira issue for implementing MongoDBAppender [2]. His
implementation can be found at [3, 4, 5].

I think his impl is worth a look. He seprated connection functionality
into MongoDBAppenderBase (part of logback-core) and ILoggingEvent
specific code into MongoDBAppender (in logback-classic). Moreover, his
code comes with 100% test coverage!

I guess the code could be easily extended to cater for AccessEvent (in
logback-access).

Anyway, let me know what I can do to move this work forward.
