Library has a binding on Log4j through SLF4J about actions-on-google-java HOT 6 CLOSED

@zonder129 you should be able to exclude the usage of log4j binding.

I don't have anything to test this with myself right now but something like this for gradle should potentially do it.
configurations { runtime.exclude group: "org.slf4j", module: "slf4j-log4j12" }

or

dependencies { compile group: 'com.google.actions', name: 'actions-on-google', version: '1.0.2' { exclude group: "org.slf4j", name: "slf4j-log4j12" } }

Or for Maven something like (I don't use Maven myself so this might need some work)

<exclusions> <exclusion> <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId> <artifactId>slf4j-log4j12</artifactId> </exclusion> </exclusions>

from actions-on-google-java.

Thanks @Molyna for the suggestion. For Maven, this exclusion worked for me:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.actions</groupId>
    <artifactId>actions-on-google</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.2</version>
    <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
            <artifactId>slf4j-log4j12</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
    </exclusions>
</dependency>

Also, unrelated but if you're in the path of testing on Google App Engine Standard along with Spring Boot framework, you'll need to follow steps from Spring Boot App Engine Standard. Here are some steps, but not limited to. So, make sure you follow steps from the link above.

1) Use Servlet 3.1.0: Do not include the Jetty dependencies. But you must include Servlet API dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
    <artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
    <version>3.1.0</version>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

2) Remove Tomcat Starter After excluding Tomcat, the command ./mvnw spring-boot:run won't work anymore. You can still run Google App Engine locally by using the command ./mvnw appengine:run.

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
  <exclusions>
    <exclusion>
      <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
      <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-tomcat</artifactId>
    </exclusion>
  </exclusions>
</dependency>

3) Exclude JUL to SLF4J Bridge

<!-- Exclude any jul-to-slf4j -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>jul-to-slf4j</artifactId>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

from actions-on-google-java.

Thank you for the report, we are currently looking into this.

I am having the same problem, please fix it as soon as possible! It's overriding my own logging properties and makes me really sad :(

from actions-on-google-java.

@Molyna thank you, that is really great workaround, I totally forgot about exclude stuff. Thanks again!

The log4j dependency has been removed as of https://github.com/actions-on-google/actions-on-google-java/releases/tag/v1.1.0
