Getting Started

This is the quick-and-dirty guide to adding mongo-java-logging to your application. By default, the library uses the database "log" and the collection, "mongo-java-logging" - see the configuration doc for more information.

Standalone

• Download the latest version of the library

• Add the library to your [CLASSPATH](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classpath_(Java\))

• Modify your logging.properties and add the following:

  • For the console and Mongo handler, add:

    handlers=java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler,com.deftlabs.logging.mongo.MongoHandler

  • If you only want a Mongo handler, use this:

    handlers=com.deftlabs.logging.mongo.MongoHandler

• Add the MongoURI, which points at your instance of Mongo:

  com.deftlabs.logging.mongo.MongoHandler.mongoUri=mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017
