You can follow Docker logging best practices by using a symbolic link hack right in your Dockefile.
Docker logging best practice states that you should direct your logs to stdout and stderr. However, is there a way to avoid modifying your existing application to comply with that best practice? Yes there is and it’s a simple symlink hack!
In this tutorial, I'll demonstrate taking an existing Java application which will send its logs to stdout/stderr without any code modification.
