log-channels

The log-channels parameter controls which "channels" are logged when running Liquibase commands.

Uses

The channel is shown in each log entry in the second set of brackets. For example, in [2022-05-20 12:52:34] FINE [liquibase.database] Connection has been created the channel is liquibase.database.

Channels are hierarchical, so the above message will be shown if log-channels is set to liquibase or liquibase.database

The default value is liquibase. Multiple channels can be specified by comma-separating them. For example, --log-channels=liquibase,com.microsoft. To enable all logging, regardless of the channel, use --log-channels=all

The level the specified channels are logged at is controlled by the log-level setting, even if that level is OFF.
