How to filter stacktrace frames in Logback

I contacted Tomasz Nurkiewicz (the author of the blog linked in the question) and he kindly answered my question. I'm posting the answer, just in case:
While printing stack trace, to filter lines from bar package use the following:

<configuration>
  <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender"> 
    <encoder>
      <pattern>[%thread] %-5level - %msg%n%rEx{full, bar}</pattern>
    </encoder>
  </appender>
  ...
</configuration>

I wanted to use it in my web application (Tomcat+Spring+Hibernate+etc). So I configured logback with the following not to print any stack trace line from org.something packages (e.g. org.apache, org.springframework, org.hibernate, etc):

<configuration>
  <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender"> 
    <encoder>
      <pattern>[%thread] %-5level - %msg%n%rEx{full, org}</pattern>
    </encoder>
  </appender>
  ...
</configuration>

Thanks Tomasz!

This may help someone who is writing springboot apps like me

I am currently using

I wrote my own feature that filters stacktrace which I used since 2010 and I am very happy with it. I published my own Open Source Java Library called MgntUtils which has stackfiltering feature and some other useful (IMHO) features. Here is the link to maven central MgntUtils and here is a link to github if you want a source code: MgntUtils at github also here is the link to the article that describes the library: MgntUtils Open Source Java library with stack trace filtering, Silent String parsing, Unicode converter and Version comparison. See The paragraph "Stacktrace noise filter"
