I know I can set the logback.xml path like this:
Specifying the location of the default configuration file as a system property
You may specif
LoggerContext loggerContext = (LoggerContext) LoggerFactory.getILoggerFactory();
loggerContext.reset();
JoranConfigurator configurator = new JoranConfigurator();
InputStream configStream = FileUtils.openInputStream(logbackPropertiesUserFile);
configurator.setContext(loggerContext);
configurator.doConfigure(configStream); // loads logback file
configStream.close();
