Akka SLF4J logback configuration and usage

Question

I have done the following steps to try and configure logging for my akka application:

• created an application.conf file and placed it in src/main/resources.

Answer 1

The only thing I would change in your setup is to add the weiglewilczek slf4j adapter.

I've got the following setup working just fine:

akka {
  event-handlers = ["akka.event.slf4j.Slf4jEventHandler"]
  loglevel = DEBUG
}

        log/app.log

        
            log/app.%d{dd-MM-yyyy}.log
            60
        

        
            %d [%thread] [%class] %5p - %m%n

trait test extends com.weiglewilczek.slf4s.Logging {
  def logIt() {
    logger.info("this logs fine")
  }
}
