Petals Logger Level

Petals define a specific level: MONIT.
The levels provided by Petals in descending order are:

  • SEVERE (highest value)
  • WARNING
  • INFO
  • CONFIG
  • MONIT
  • FINE
  • FINER
  • FINEST (lowest value)

The root logger level is WARNING. It means that all classes log only SEVERE and WARNING information.
You can target specific packages to collect logging from and specify a level. Here is how you would set debugging from Petals. You would need to ensure the Handler's level is also set to collect this threshold, so FINEST or ALL should be set.

##Petals level
Petals.level = FINEST

#Handler Configuration
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = FINEST

Example of configuration to debug (Level FINEST) petals-bc-soap component:

##Petals level
Petals.level = INFO #Log level for all petals services
Petals.Container.Components.petals-bc-soap.level = FINEST #Log level for petals-bc-soap component

#Handler Configuration
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = FINEST

Petals handler

By default two handler are used: consoleHandler and FileHandler.
The console handler is use to routing logging to stdout.

The parameter java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level define the level

Petals formatter

Petals provides two formatter: PetalsSimpleFormatter and PetalsExtendedFormatter.

PetalsSimpleFormatter use the following pattern:

YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS,FFF LOG LEVEL LOGGER NAME : LOG MESSAGE
[DATA KEY] = '[DATA VALUE]'
[JAVA EXCEPTION]

PetalsExtendedFormatter is used to log message content (payload XML of SOAP or JBI Message), attachments name and properties.

The pattern of PetalsExtendedFormatter inherit from the pattern of PetalsSimpleFormatter.

Example of logging output with PetalsExtendedFormatter:

2010/06/03 10:22:19,507 MONIT [Petals.Container.Components.petals-bc-soap] : This is a test message
key1 = 'value1'
source = '<test>test messsage</test>'
java.lang.RuntimeException: My error
