All examples are based on the standard docker container names, if you changed them, you need to take this into account for your logs commands.

Custom Logging Configuration

Portrait uses the Logback Library for Logging and comes with a default logging configuration.

This configuration can be overwritten with your own.

Configuration in application.yml:

The path of the logfile needs to be accessable within the docker container. Therefore it should be in the config folder which is mapped as a volume inside the container.

Example logback.xml

The Logfiles should be written to logs/. Then the files will be mapped on the host via docker-compose.

Further Information is available on the official logback documentation
