Class AsyncDisruptorAppender<Event extends ch.qos.logback.core.spi.DeferredProcessingAware>

java.lang.Object

ch.qos.logback.core.spi.ContextAwareBase

ch.qos.logback.core.UnsynchronizedAppenderBase<Event>

net.logstash.logback.appender.AsyncDisruptorAppender<Event>

Type Parameters:

Event - type of event (ILoggingEvent or IAccessEvent).

All Implemented Interfaces:

ch.qos.logback.core.Appender<Event>, ch.qos.logback.core.spi.ContextAware, ch.qos.logback.core.spi.FilterAttachable<Event>, ch.qos.logback.core.spi.LifeCycle

Direct Known Subclasses:

AbstractLogstashTcpSocketAppender, DelegatingAsyncDisruptorAppender

public abstract class AsyncDisruptorAppender<Event extends ch.qos.logback.core.spi.DeferredProcessingAware>
extends ch.qos.logback.core.UnsynchronizedAppenderBase<Event>

An asynchronous appender that uses an LMAX Disruptor RingBuffer as the interthread data exchange mechanism (as opposed to a BlockingQueue used by logback's AsyncAppender).

See the LMAX Disruptor documentation for more information about the advantages of using a RingBuffer over a BlockingQueue.

This appender will never block the logging thread, since it uses RingBuffer.tryPublishEvent(EventTranslatorOneArg, Object) to publish events (rather than RingBuffer.publishEvent(EventTranslatorOneArg, Object)).

If the RingBuffer is full, and the event cannot be published, the event will be dropped. A warning message will be logged to logback's context every droppedWarnFrequency consecutive dropped events.

A single handler thread will be used to handle the actual handling of the event.

Subclasses are required to set the eventHandler to define the logic that executes in the handler thread. For example, DelegatingAsyncDisruptorAppender for will delegate appending of the event to another appender in the handler thread.

By default, child threads created by this appender will be daemon threads, and therefore allow the JVM to exit gracefully without needing to explicitly shut down the appender. Note that in this case, it is possible for appended log events to not be handled (if the child thread has not had a chance to process them yet). By setting setDaemon(boolean) to false, you can change this behavior. When false, child threads created by this appender will not be daemon threads, and therefore will prevent the JVM from shutting down until the appender is explicitly shut down. Set this to false if you want to ensure that every log event prior to shutdown is handled.

getThreadNamePrefix

@Deprecated
public String getThreadNamePrefix()

Deprecated. use getThreadNameFormat()

setThreadNamePrefix

@Deprecated
public void setThreadNamePrefix(String threadNamePrefix)

Deprecated. use setThreadNameFormat(String) instead.

This is the old way to customize thread names.

Parameters:

threadNamePrefix -

getThreadNameFormat

public String getThreadNameFormat()

setThreadNameFormat

public void setThreadNameFormat(String threadNameFormat)

Pattern used by the to set the handler thread names. Defaults to "logback-appender-%1$s-%2$d".

If you change the threadFactory, then this value may not be honored.

The string is a format pattern understood by Formatter.format(String, Object...). Formatter.format(String, Object...) is used to construct the actual thread name prefix. The first argument (%1$s) is the string appender name. The second argument (%2$d) is the numerical thread index. Other arguments can be made available by subclasses.
