Which Logback Appender to use to send new events to splunk via REST reciever endpoint?

Question

Which Logback appender should I use if I want to create new events using the Splunk's REST receivers endpoint if I'm using logback framework. I want to make a custom basic appender for that? Is it socket appender?

There is no built-in appender. However following Which Logback Appender to use to send new events to splunk via REST reciever endpoint? ^{(which BTW has a surprisingly similar layout to SO)} I found SplunkJavaLogging project, specifically the SplunkRestAppender.

That is correct Tomasz , SplunkJavaLogging has log4j and logback appenders and also a java.util logging handler for anyone still using that framework.
