How do I disable logging from javers?

Answer 1

You can set log level for Javers in logback.xml like this :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
        <encoder>
            <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n</pattern>
        </encoder>
    </appender>

    <logger name="org.javers.SQL" level="DEBUG"/>

    <root level="info">
        <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
    </root>
</configuration>

With this configuration you should only see DEBUG log messages displayed in pattern above.

If you want to completly disable logging you can use this :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
        <encoder>
            <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n</pattern>
        </encoder>
    </appender>

    <logger name="org.javers.SQL" level="OFF"/>

    <root level="info">
        <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
    </root>
</configuration>

The instruction: level="OFF" tells Logback to disable all log output for a given logger, in your case that is javers logger.
