Grails 3.0 logging config in PROD

Question

Grails 3 has the logback plugin. I can configure it and see all the logs when run-app.

But on PRODUCTION I want to use an external logback.groovy file (on tomcat8).

Using Grails 2 I used to externalize the config.groovy with the logging parameters (TRACE, DEBUG, PATH, etc...).

I follow this question and I was able to set up an external config.yml file for my app. But I didn't see how to set this up for logback.groovy.

How to configure logback parameters in an external file for PRODUCTION?

Answer 1

As per docs , in application-production.yml, you can define path for an external logback.groovy file that will override what is defined in your grails-app/conf/logback.groovy .

logging:
    config: /Users/me/config/logback.groovy
