A very helpful approach to redirecting logging for a particular processor
type is presented here:
https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/63071/in-apache-ni-fi-how-can-i-log-all-the-flowfile-att.html
. It shows how we can tailor logback.xml to redirect logging for a given
processor.

But this appears to redirect logging for every single instance of that
processor type globally across the nifi service. This would not be ideal:
for example, clearly others employing LogAttribute processors in their
process groups for their flows may not want their logging redirected to my
chosen log file for my LogAttribute instance.

Has anyone figured out how to use the approach described by the link above
- namely, add a custom Appender and Logger in logback.xml - to tailor the
customization to a specific processor instance? Or perhaps even limit it to
a particular Process Group?

Thank you.
