[logback-user] Appending an hourly log line when idle

[Mat Schaffer]

Hello all,

I have a service which sits idle sometimes for days and doesn't log
anything.

This sometimes creates confusion that the process (or log collection) isn't
working, but it actually just doesn't have work to do.

Is there any logback feature that I could leverage to send an hourly "MARK"
if nothing has gone through the appender?

Or should I just add something in the app itself?

Thanks in advance!
