title: Is it possible to use only one logback.properties file across multiple modules?
body: <p>Let's say you have a Maven project Alpha. And this project Alpha contains the following modules A, B, C &amp; CommonModule. Now, each module contains its' own resource folder where you would place logback.xml and logback.properties.</p>
  
  <p><em>Is it possible to use only one logback.properties file across the multiple modules?</em> </p>
  
  <p>If so, how may I put the logback.properties files within the CommonModule and have the POM files for the modules resource the CommonModule/config folder?</p>
  
  <p>My properties file works just fine within a module but I need to eliminate the redundancy of the file in the project so at build time it only ever uses the logback.properties file that I have placed into the CommonModule/config folder.</p>
  
  <p>I was thinking that I just need to set the POM resource section but cannot figure out how to make it read from the folder as it always appears to read from the module down.</p>
  
  <p>This will eventually be going to a Spring-Boot application but I'm just taking it one step at a time here.</p>
  
  <p>Also, I'm not very familiar Maven and don't know anything about Spring-Boot at the moment (working on that).</p>
