Is there someway to force log when immediateFlush set to false?

[gohonsen]

Hi,

After I set the logback immediateFlush parameter to false, for a period of time, there were very few logs and the log files were not updated for a long time. Is there a parameter that can be used in conjunction with immediateFlush to force log files to be written at intervals when there were very few logs?

The logback.xml config:

<appender name="LogAppender" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
    <file>${LOG_HOME}/app.${HOSTNAME}.ing</file>
    <rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
        <fileNamePattern>${LOG_HOME}/${HOSTNAME}.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log.%i </fileNamePattern>
        <maxHistory>3</maxHistory>
        <timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.SizeAndTimeBasedFNATP">
            <maxFileSize>600MB</maxFileSize>
        </timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy>
    </rollingPolicy>
    <encoder class="ch.qos.logback.classic.encoder.PatternLayoutEncoder">
        <charset>${CHARSET}</charset>
        <pattern>${ES_PATTERN}</pattern>
    </encoder>
    <immediateFlush>false</immediateFlush>
</appender>

<appender name="AsyncLog" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.AsyncAppender">
    <queueSize>1024</queueSize>
    <discardingThreshold >512</discardingThreshold>
    <neverBlock>true</neverBlock>
    <includeCallerData>true</includeCallerData>
    <appender-ref ref="LogAppender" />
</appender>

@gohonsen Interesting question. Please ask for this as a feature at jira.qos.ch

@gohonsen You may want to set the bufferSize option to a smaller value than the default value of 8192. A smaller buffer size will fill up quicker.
