Spring Boot Kotlin Part 3: Logging in Logback and Log4j2
If you're learning Spring Boot and you need 1:1 coaching, you can book me using the info on my channel page.
In this video we are going to take at logging in Spring Boot. We are going to discuss the 2 options we have for logging libraries at the time of recording this video (early 2022) as well as the facade library SLF4J. We are going to showcase a basic usage of SLF4J then write an XML configuration file for Logback. After that, we are going to switch our project to Log4J2 then write an XML configuration file for Log4J2.
