<appender name="default" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender"> <append>true</append> <file>${logging.log_dir}/${contextName}.log</file> <rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy"> <fileNamePattern>${logging.log_archive_dir}/${contextName}.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.log.gz</fileNamePattern> <timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.SizeAndTimeBasedFNATP"> <maxFileSize>${logging.appender_max_file_size}</maxFileSize> </timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy> </rollingPolicy> <encoder class="${logging.encoder.default}" /> </appender> The configuration above uses runtime properties (property name wrapped in ${}) so you can just fill in the values with whatever you can imagine. This configuration rolls the file every night at mid-night (you'd need to look at the documentation of SizeAndTimeBasedFNATP to see how to do it at 4am rather than mid-night--I think it's possible). The nice thing about this policy is that not only rolls on a time schedule (as dictated by the date stamp format), but it also rolls when the file gets too large (maxFileSize). Hope this helps!

Hey friends! Greetings from Chile.

I'd like to achieve the following:

I want my main rollingPolicy to be FixedWindowRollingPolicy. This way, my main logging file will always be named the same way and backup files will by rolling. I want the triggeringPolicy to be TimeBasedRollingPolicy, so it rolls every day at 04:00 AM. I couldn't find a way to achieve this and I only saw examples of SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy, which is not my desired triggeringPolicy. I couldn't find a parameter for TimeBasedRollingPolicy and besides of that it seems to require fileNamePattern.

Is there any way to achieve this? Thanks in advance!

Best regards.
