Gary Gregory commented on LOG4J2-1685:
--------------------------------------
ATM, speaking for myself, I can only see going forward with this if we (I)
update master to use builders as outlined in my previous comment. Would you be
willing to rework your patch once this builder task is done?
> Single property to disable all color output
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LOG4J2-1685
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1685
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Appenders
> Affects Versions: 2.7
> Reporter: Raman Gupta
> Assignee: Mikael Ståldal
> Priority: Minor
>
> I am deploying an app to a Windows server. The app will write logs to
> standard output which will then be captured by some wrapper process.
> My default configuration contains ansi escapes for color, because they are
> nice for every situation except this one.
> It would be nice if there was a simple way to disable all ansi output via a
> system property and/or environment variable e.g.
> `-Dlog4j.ansi.enabled=false`
> This would operate similarly to the Spring Boot `spring.output.ansi.enabled`
> property
> (http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/boot-features-logging.html).
> In Spring Boot I believe this is handled by using conditionals in their
> logback configuration (which would be super-nice in log4j also). With
> conditional layout I could very easily do this myself by specifying two
> different Pattern layouts in my config file, one with color and one without,
> conditional on some system property or env var I define.
