+
+== Introduction to APEX Logging
+
+All APEX components make extensive use of logging using the logging façade link:https://www.slf4j.org/[SLF4J] with the backend link:https://logback.qos.ch/[Logback].
+Both are used off-the-shelve, so the standard documentation and configuration apply to APEX logging.
+For details on how to work with logback please see the link:https://logback.qos.ch/manual/index.html[logback manual].
+
+The APEX applications is the logback configuration file `$APEX_HOME/etc/logback.xml` (Windows: `%APEX_HOME%\etc\logback.xml`).
+The logging backend is set to no debug, i.e. logs from the logging framework should be hidden at runtime.
+
+The configurable log levels work as expected:
+
+- __error__ (or __ERROR__) is used for serious errors in the APEX runtime engine
+- __warn__ (or __WARN__) is used for warnings, which in general can be ignored but might indicate some deeper problems
+- __info__ (or __INFO__) is used to provide generally interesting messages for startup and policy execution
+- __debug__ (or __DEBUG__) provides more details on startup and policy execution
+- __trace__ (or __TRACE__) gives full details on every aspect of the APEX engine from start to end
+
+The loggers can also be configured as expected.
+The standard configuration (after installing APEX) uses log level __info__ on all APEX classes (components).
+
+The applications and scripts in `$APEX_HOME/bin` (Windows: `%APEX_HOME\bin`) are configured to use the logback configuration `$APEX_HOME/etc/logback.xml` (Windows: `%APEX_HOME\etc\logback.xml`).
+There are multiple ways to use different logback configurations, for instance:
+
+- Maintain multiple configurations in `etc`, for instance a `logback-debug.xml` for deep debugging and a `logback-production.xml` for APEX in production mode, then copy the required configuration file to the used `logback.xml` prior starting APEX
+- Edit the scripts in `bin` to use a different logback configuration file (only recommended if you are familiar with editing bash scripts or windows batch files)

+== Logging External Components
+
+Logback can also be configured to log any other, external components APEX is using, if they are using the common logging framework.
+
+For instance, the context component of APEX is using __Infinispan__ and one can add a logger for this external component.
+The following example adds a logger for __Infinispan__ using the standard output appender.
+
+[source%nowrap,xml]
+----
+<logger name="org.infinispan" level="INFO" additivity="false">
+ <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
+</logger>

+
+Another example is Apache Zookeeper.
+The following example adds a logger for Zookeeper using the standard outout appender.
+
+[source%nowrap,xml]
+----
+<logger name="org.apache.zookeeper.ClientCnxn" level="INFO" additivity="false">

+== Configuring loggers for Policy Logic
+
+The logging for the logic inside a policy (task logic, task selection logic, state finalizer logic) can be configured separate from standard logging.
+The logger for policy logic is `org.onap.policy.apex.executionlogging`.
+The following example defines
+
+- a new appender for policy logic logging to standard out using a very simple pattern (simply the actual message)
+- a logger for policy logic to standard out using the new appender
+- a logger for policy logic to the standard `FILE` appender
+
+[source%nowrap,xml]
+----
+<appender name="POLICY_APPENDER_STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
+ <encoder>
+ <pattern>policy: %msg\n</pattern>
+ </encoder>
+</appender>
+
+<appender name="POLICY_APPENDER_STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
+ <encoder>
+ <pattern>policy: %msg\n</pattern>
+ </encoder>
+</appender>
+
+<logger name="org.onap.policy.apex.executionlogging" level="info" additivity="false">
+ <appender-ref ref="POLICY_APPENDER_STDOUT" />
+ <appender-ref ref="FILE" />
+</logger>
+
+----
+
+It is also possible to use specific logging for parts of policy logic.
+The following example defines a logger for task logic.
+
+[source%nowrap,xml]
+----
+<logger name="org.onap.policy.apex.executionlogging.TaskExecutionLogging" level="TRACE" additivity="false">
+ <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />

+== Rolling File Appenders
+
+Rolling file appenders are a good option for more complex logging of a production or complex testing APEX installation.
+The standard logback configuration can be used for these use cases.
+This section gives two examples for the standard logging and for context logging.
+
+First the standard logging.
+The following example defines a rolling file appender.
+The appender rolls over on a daily basis.
+It allows for a file size of 100 MB.
+
+[source%nowrap,xml]
+----
+<appender name="FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
+ <file>${VAR_LOG}/apex.log</file>
+ <rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
+ <!-- rollover daily -->
+ <!-- <fileNamePattern>xstream-%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.txt</fileNamePattern> -->
+ <fileNamePattern>${VAR_LOG}/apex_%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.log.gz
+ </fileNamePattern>
+ <maxHistory>4</maxHistory>
+ <timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.SizeAndTimeBasedFNATP">
+ <!-- or whenever the file size reaches 100MB -->
+ <maxFileSize>100MB</maxFileSize>
+ </timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy>
+ </rollingPolicy>
+ <encoder>
+ <pattern>
+ %d %-5relative [procId=${processId}] [%thread] %-5level %logger{26} - %msg %ex{full} %n
+ </pattern>
+ </encoder>
+</appender>
+----
+
+A very similar configuration can be used for a rolling file appender logging APEX context.
+
+[source%nowrap,xml]
+----
+<appender name="CTXT-FILE"
+ class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
+ <file>${VAR_LOG}/apex_ctxt.log</file>
+ <rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
+ <fileNamePattern>${VAR_LOG}/apex_ctxt_%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.log.gz

+ class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.SizeAndTimeBasedFNATP">

+ </timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy>
+ </rollingPolicy>
+ <encoder>

+== Standard Logging Configuration
+
+The standard logging configuration defines a context __APEX__, which is used in the standard output pattern.
+The location for log files is defined in the property `VAR_LOG` and set to `/var/log/apex`.
+The standard status listener is set to __NOP__ and the overall logback configuration is set to no debug.
+
+[source%nowrap,xml,numbered]
+----
+<configuration debug="false">
+ <statusListener class="ch.qos.logback.core.status.NopStatusListener" />
+
+ <contextName>Apex</contextName>
+ <property name="VAR_LOG" value="/var/log/ericsson/apex/" />
+
+ ...appenders
+ ...loggers
+</configuration>
+----
+
+The first appender defined is called `STDOUT` for logs to standard out.
+
+[source%nowrap,xml,numbered]
+----
+<appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
+ <encoder>
+ <Pattern>%d %contextName [%t] %level %logger{36} - %msg%n</Pattern>
+ </encoder>
+</appender>
+----
+
+The root level logger then is set to the level __info__ using the standard out appender.
+[source%nowrap,xml,numbered]
+----
+<root level="info">
+ <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
+</root>
+----
+
+The first appender is called `FILE`.
+It writes logs to a file `apex.log`.
+[source%nowrap,xml,numbered]
+----
+<appender name="FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">
+ <file>${VAR_LOG}/apex.log</file>
+ <encoder>
+ <pattern>
+ %d %-5relative [procId=${processId}] [%thread] %-5level%logger{26} - %msg %n %ex{full}
+ </pattern>
+ </encoder>
+</appender>
+----
+
+The first appender is called `CTXT_FILE`.
+It writes logs to a file `apex_ctxt.log`.
+[source%nowrap,xml,numbered]
+----
+<appender name="CTXT_FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">

+ </pattern>
+ </encoder>
+</appender>
+----
+
+The last definitions are for specific loggers.
+The first logger captures all standard APEX classes, appends logs to `STDOUT` with the log level __info__.
+The second logger capture all standard APEX classes, appends logs to `FILE` with log level __info__.
+The third logger captures context monitoring classes, appends logs to `CTXT_FILE` with log level __trace__.
