DailyFileAppender implementation in SLF4J

Question

I need to configure my logs on daily basis and want to create separate log file for every day, having logs for every 24 hours only. how to accommodate that in my XML.

can any one help me to refactor it as well, as it looks amateur to me.

I dont need rolling on the basis of size, please suggest as my logback.xml is share below:

logback.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<timestamp key="bySecond" datePattern="yyyy-MM-dd_HHmmss" />
