Springboot日志默认使用的是logback，本文将介绍将springboot项目日志修改为log4j。

首先要将默认的日志依赖排除，然后引用log4j，pom文件代码如下：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</project>

引用log4j之后，在resources加入log4j配置即可，下面是本人之前项目的log4j.properties内容，代码如下：

log4j.rootLogger=debug,CONSOLE,FILE

##输出到控制台
log4j.appender.CONSOLE=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.CONSOLE.Threshold=DEBUG
log4j.appender.CONSOLE.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH\:mm\:ss} -%-4r [%t] %-5p  %x - %m%n
log4j.appender.CONSOLE.Target=System.out
log4j.appender.CONSOLE.Encoding=gbk
log4j.appender.CONSOLE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout


##输出到日志文件 每10M分成一个日志文件
log4j.appender.FILE=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.FILE.File=/Users/dalaoyang/Downloads/log
log4j.appender.FILE.DatePattern = '_'yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm'.log'
log4j.appender.FILE.MaxFileSize=10MB
log4j.appender.FILE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.FILE.layout.ConversionPattern=%d%n%m%n

简单讲解一下：
CONSOLE里面是输出到控制台的日志
FILE是输入到日志文件的日志，日志是按照大小分的，最大为10M，
每小时一个日志文件。
