I'm working on an application that uses logback for logging. I used the logback DBAppender to insert logs into DB.
All worked great for me and i was able to insert and see the logs into the Database.
I did some testing with 200 logging line of code and measured the time consumption for those 200 logs and got 10 milliseconds without using the DBAppender. When i added the DBAppender i got around 2700 milliseconds.
I tried to use the ch.qos.logback.classic.AsyncAppender
with no luck making it work asynchronously. I always get 0 results inserted into my database.
My configuration looks like the below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration debug="true">
<appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
<!-- encoders are by default assigned the type
ch.qos.logback.classic.encoder.PatternLayoutEncoder -->
<encoder>
<pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n</pattern>
</encoder>
</appender>
<appender name="DBAppPostgreSQL" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.db.DBAppender">
<connectionSource class="ch.qos.logback.core.db.DriverManagerConnectionSource">
<dataSource class="com.mchange.v2.c3p0.ComboPooledDataSource">
<driverClass>org.postgresql.Driver</driverClass>
<url>jdbc:postgresql://127.0.0.1:5678/DB</url>
<user>YYYYY</user>
<password>XXX</password>
</dataSource>
</connectionSource>
<sqlDialect class="ch.qos.logback.core.db.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect" />
<insertHeaders>true</insertHeaders>
</appender>
<appender name="ASYNC" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.AsyncAppender">
<appender-ref ref="DBAppPostgreSQL" />
<includeCallerData>true</includeCallerData>
</appender>
<root level="debug">
<appender-ref ref="ASYNC" />
<appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
</root>
</configuration>
Is there anything missing with my configuration? Or is there any other way to make it insert logs into DB faster?
Note that i'm using postgreSQL
Thanks,
EDITED:
I'm using logback 1.0.11 over slf4j 1.7.5. Also i'm using postgresql 8.0.325.
