Using the Grep-console plugin to make IntelliJ idea display multi-color debug logs

Because IntelliJ idea does not support the display of ASCII color, Grep-console plug-in can solve this problem, the following is the development of Java EE Project, combined with LOG4J configuration multi-color log output function.

Installing the Grep-console plugin

Https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/7125-grep-console Download the latest version

Idea's setup install plugin to select the downloaded zip package and restart it.

Set Grep-console Configure the foreground color of all levels of logs

Configure log4j

Maven config file pom.xml add log4j's Trust

[HTML]

 <dependency> <groupId>log4j</groupId> <artifactid& gt;log4j</artifactid> <version>1.2.17</version> </version> </dependency>

In the Resource folder, add the log.4j configuration file log4j.properties and add the following:


[HTML]

 ### set log levels ###   log4j.rootlogger =  debug ,  stdout      ###  output to console  ###   log4j.appender.stdout = org.apache.log4j.consoleappender   Log4j.appender.stdout.Target  = System.out   Log4j.appender.stdout.layout = org.apache.log4j.patternlayout    log4j.appender.stdout.layout.conversionpattern = %-d{yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss}   [ %t:%r ] - [ %p ]  %m%n      ###  output to log file  ###   log4j.appender.d = org.apache.log4j.dailyrollingfileappender   log4j.appender.d.file = logs/log.log   log4j.appender.d.append = true   log4j.appender.d.threshold = debug ##  output DEBUG level above log    Log4j.appender.d.layout  = org.apache.log4j.patternlayout   log4j.appender.d.layout.conversionpattern = %-d{yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss}   [ %t:%r ] - [ %p ]  %m%n      d.layout.conversionpattern = %-d{yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss}  [ %t:%r ] -  [ %p ]  %m%n  

test the final effectApply JUnit to write the following test code[Java]

 @Test public void Testloger () {final Logger Logger = Logger.getlogger ("Testerrout");     Logger.debug ("This is DEBUG!!!"); &nb
