Different logging levels for appenders in same logger

[ShehabElsayed]

Hi,

Is there a way to have 2 appenders in the same logger but with different logging levels? For example, can I add a console appender with level INFO and a file appender with level DEBUG to the same logger such that the results would be like the following?

• info(logger, "Hello"): would write Hello to both console and file
• debug(logger, "Hello"): would only write Hello to file

Thank you very much in advance.

I don't think this is possible with the current API, as appenders do not have separate thresholds.

But it's almost certainly possible to accomplish this:

1. Write a custom console appender that handles the level internally and drops DEBUG messages.
2. Set the logger's overall threshold at DEBUG and use the existing file appender.
