Custom plugins not getting applied in OSGi environment

[Asma Zinneera Jabir]

I have written a Log4j2 custom Converter plugin in OSGi environment and
have used log4j2 with ops4j-pax-logging. The custom field is tenantId and I
have referred to it in the log4j2.xml as %tenantId. When I run the program
the logs gets printed as {thread-name}enantId.

Plugin class

package com.test.logging.converters;

@Plugin(name = "TenantIdConverter", category = "Converter")
@ConverterKeys({"tenantId"})
public class TenantIdConverter extends LogEventPatternConverter {
    public TenantIdConverter(String name, String style) {
        super(name, style);
    }

    public static TenantIdConverter newInstance(String[] options) {
        return new TenantIdConverter("tenantId", "tenantId");
    }

    @Override
    public void format(LogEvent event, StringBuilder toAppendTo) {
        toAppendTo.append(getTenantID());
    }

    public String getTenantID() {
        String tenantId = "1234";
        if (tenantId == null) {
            tenantId = "[]";
        }
        return tenantId;
    }
}
