How to include log4j-{profile}.properties file inside application-{profile}.properties file

I have two profile specific application.properties files (application-dev.properties and application-prod.properties) and two log4j.properties files.
(Log4j-dev.properties and Log4j-prod.properties). I need to include log4j-dev.properties file inside application-dev.properties file. How can I do that?

You can configure your spring boot app logging in application-*.properties using logging.level.*. Using spring-boot-starter-logging dependency.

logging.level.org.springframework=DEBUG

logging.level.com.howtodoinjava=DEBUG



#output to a temp_folder/file

logging.file=${java.io.tmpdir}/application.log



# Logging pattern for the console

logging.pattern.console= %d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} - %msg%n



# Logging pattern for file

logging.pattern.file= %d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%

Another solution is you can link to your external log4j configuration file using logging.config=log4j.properties

So for example in application-dev.properties create the line:

logging.config=classpath:Log4j-dev.properties

and in application-prod.properties create the line:

logging.config=classpath:Log4j-prod.properties

I tried this code, but I got an error. Logging system failed to initialize using configuration from 'classpath:log4j-dev.properties' java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not initialize Logback logging from classpath:log4j-dev.properties

You can configure your spring boot app logging in application-*.properties using logging.level.*. Using spring-boot-starter-logging dependency.

logging.level.org.springframework=DEBUG

logging.level.com.howtodoinjava=DEBUG



#output to a temp_folder/file

logging.file=${java.io.tmpdir}/application.log



# Logging pattern for the console

logging.pattern.console= %d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} - %msg%n



# Logging pattern for file

logging.pattern.file= %d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%

Another solution is you can link to your external log4j configuration file using logging.config=log4j.properties

So for example in application-dev.properties create the line:

logging.config=classpath:Log4j-dev.properties

and in application-prod.properties create the line:

logging.config=classpath:Log4j-prod.properties
