Akka logging to slf4j/log4j ?

[oschulz]

Hi,

pardon me if this should be out of place here - I'm actually not quite
sure if it's an Akka or a configgy question:

Is it possibly to have Akka use slf4j or log4j for logging?

Since serveral of my dependencies use slf4j (or log4j), i can't really
switch to configgy
logging (and also I need to be able to configure different logging
levels for parts of my classpath).
Having seperate logs (configgy and log4j) is kinda inconvenient,
though ... ;-)

Sorry if I'm missing an obvious solution here (from what I've read,
Akka plays well with Lift,
but Lift also uses slf4j, doesn't it?)

Cheers,

Oliver

I like configgy's API and we use it for configuration as well. And
Java Logging is something that is always available so no extra deps.

Best would be if configgy allowed plugging in another logging backend.
Don't know if they do that. Someone could perhaps patch it?

Re-reading my post, I was being a bit unclear, sorry.

I had searched for ways to use slf4j or log4j as a backend
for configgy, but had not been sucessful - that why I
hoped someone here would say, oh, that's easy, just
do ... or that Akka already provided a way to plug
in different logging systems.

I certainly wouldn't propose to switch Akka from
configgy to slf4j or log4j to fulfill the specific
needs of my project! :-)
