<div> I wanted to make you all aware of a new Logback appender that I have released called Whisper. Whisper is a delegating appender that can suppress error messages when they exceed a configured threshold. During the suppression period, Whisper will send you a digest of messages that were suppressed. Once the frequency drops back to normal, message flow will continue as usual.</div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">1. Where do I find it? </span><a href="http://eclecticlogic.github.io/whisper/" target="_blank" style="font-size: 12pt;">http://eclecticlogic.github.io/whisper/</a> </div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">2. What's the main use case for this? In conjunction with SMTP appender for error emails to prevent error email span when things go bad.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">3. What kind of license? Apache 2.0</span></div><div>4. Does Whisper suppress all messages? No, it only suppresses those messages that have exceeded the threshold. </div><div>5. What if my messages are similar but only vary by a couple of parameters? If you use the SLF4j api and use the parameterized log message format, then Whisper will suppress across parameterized messages.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div>KA</div> </div></body>
