Good afternoon

The documentation for SLF4J and Logback is very detailed 😊, but unfortunately it is still difficult to understand the various possibilities and mechanisms, so I have a question:

Is it possible to configure the logback FileAppender
so that it automatically / dynamically creates logfile names based on a string which the developer passes in e.g. LOGGER.trace()?

The background to the idea is as follows:

1. The developer is programming a new module (e.g. a configuration manager)
   and he would like to have the log entries summarised in a separate log file.
   
   
2. Therefore, he calls something like that: LOGGER.trace(“Config-Mgr”, “Message”)
   
   
3. SLF4J / Logback automatically reads this string and create this Logfile: AppLog-Config-Mgr.log
   
   
   
4. The central element is that we do not have to modify logback.xml and create an appender for each Logfile.
   
   This means that if the user now calls e.g.: LOGGER.trace(“User-Actionlog”, “Message”)
   then this new log file will created without having to modify logback.xml:
   AppLog-User-Actionlog.log

Thank you very much for any tips & tricks 😊

Thanks a lot, kind regards,
