log4j2 使用 CsvParameterLayout，如何在单元格中添加时间戳？

Question

I am using log4j2's CsvParameterLayout to log.

logger.info("unzipPhase logging", "Timestamp", "Level",  "RenamedPath","Instruction","Status", "Message", "Layer#", "Thread#");
logger.info("unzipPhase logging...", "????", "info",  newName.getAbsolutePath(),"unzip","success", "Message...", "Layer#",Thread.currentThread().getName());

Is there any simple and direct way to get Timestamp ?

You can use KeyValuePair option in JsonLayOut .

Please choice and use one among of 3 cases.

CASE 1. Using KeyValuePair

1. add JsonLayout in your configuration file. I used log4j2.xml . The key is <KeyValuePair key="timestamp" value="$${date:yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ}" />

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration status="WARN">
     <Appenders>

        <Routing name="RoutingAppender">
            <Routes pattern="${ctx:logFileName}">
                <Route>
                    <RollingFile name="Rolling-${ctx:logFileName}"
                                 fileName="./logs/${ctx:logFileName}.log"
                                 filePattern="./logs/${ctx:logFileName}.%i.log.gz">
                        <JsonLayout>
                            <KeyValuePair key="timestamp" value="$${date:yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ}" />
                        </JsonLayout>
                        <SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="512" />
                    </RollingFile>
                </Route>
            </Routes>
        </Routing>
    </Appenders>

    <Loggers>
        <Root level="all">
            <AppenderRef ref="RoutingAppender" />
        </Root>
    </Loggers>

</Configuration>

2. Run!

3. Check the output. The key is timestamp .

{
  "instant" : {
    "epochSecond" : 1588683107,
    "nanoOfSecond" : 556000000
  },
  "thread" : "main",
  "level" : "INFO",
  "loggerName" : "com.study.Stackoverflow",
  "message" : "log printed! - testFile",
  "endOfBatch" : false,
  "loggerFqcn" : "org.apache.logging.log4j.spi.AbstractLogger",
  "threadId" : 1,
  "threadPriority" : 5,
  "timestamp" : "2020-05-05T21:51:47.556+0900"
}

CASE 2. Using JsonLayOut

1. add JsonLayout in your configuration file. I used log4j2.xml . The key is <JsonLayout includeTimeMillis="true">

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration status="WARN">
     <Appenders>

        <Routing name="RoutingAppender">
            <Routes pattern="${ctx:logFileName}">
                <Route>
                    <RollingFile name="Rolling-${ctx:logFileName}"
                                 fileName="./logs/${ctx:logFileName}.log"
                                 filePattern="./logs/${ctx:logFileName}.%i.log.gz">
                        <JsonLayout includeTimeMillis="true">
                        </JsonLayout>
                        <SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="512" />
                    </RollingFile>
                </Route>
            </Routes>
        </Routing>
    </Appenders>

    <Loggers>
        <Root level="all">
            <AppenderRef ref="RoutingAppender" />
        </Root>
    </Loggers>

</Configuration>

2. Run!

3. Check the output. The key is timeMillis .

{
  "timeMillis" : 1588688067619,
  "thread" : "main",
  "level" : "INFO",
  "loggerName" : "com.edu.test.Stackoverflow",
  "message" : "log printed! - testFile",
  "endOfBatch" : false,
  "loggerFqcn" : "org.apache.logging.log4j.spi.AbstractLogger",
  "threadId" : 1,
  "threadPriority" : 5,
  "test" : "11111"
}

CASE 3. Using System Property Sorry, I couldn't make working code. I don't know how could I adopt it in code.
