How to force Scriptella console out to a log file too?

[hansgru]

How to force everything what Scriptella is displaying to the console to a scriptella.log file too?
I couldn't find how to specify such a thing in the etl.xml :(.

Of course I don't mean only the the individual "log" tasks:

<connection id="script" driver="script"/>
<script connection-id="script">
    java.lang.System.out.println("something ...");
</script>

but everything that's displayed for later use.

Thank you.

I have not had any luck myself with getting java logging or commons-logging to work reasonably.

I haven't found a solution for this either.

+1 for an automated and out of the box scriptella.log.

How about using tee command to redirect the output to file, e.g.:
scriptella | tee scriptella.log

How about using tee command to redirect the output

When using it programmatically it's impossible to separate the output of Scriptella only to a file.

You can always programmatically redirect Scriptella logs to a custom handler by calling LoggingConfigurer.configure(...);

This way scriptella redirects JUL to ant logging for instance.
