问题
I am new to GCP AppEngine and I chose the Flexible environment for several reasons. However, I am shocked to find out that the flexible environment's non-"compatible" runtimes appear to not allow me to map my app's logging events to the appropriate log levels in cloud logging. Am I reading this correctly? https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/java/writing-application-logs#writing_application_logs_1
And this page was really unhelpful. https://cloud.google.com/java/getting-started/logging-application-events
This is after several hours of reading GAE logging woes and trying to determine which applied to the Standard environment vs. Flexible. Best I can tell, event level mapping is possible in the standard environment.
However, for more fine-grained control of the log level display in the Cloud Platform Console, the logging framework must use a java.util.logging adapter. https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/java/how-requests-are-handled#Java_Logging
OK. That's a vague reference, but I think I saw something more clear somewhere else.
Regardless, shouldn't this be easier in the "flexible" environment? Who doesn't want to easily filter events by Logging levels?
Update: I clarified the question to indicate that I am asking about the non-compatible runtimes in the GAE flexible environment.

Here is how I got cloud logging to work using SLF4J. This works on a non-compatible Java GAE Flex environment.
logback.xml
<configuration debug="true">
<appender name="FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">
<file>/var/log/app_engine/custom_logs/app.log.json</file>
<append>true</append>
<!-- encoders are assigned the type ch.qos.logback.classic.encoder.PatternLayoutEncoder by default -->
<encoder class="ch.qos.logback.core.encoder.LayoutWrappingEncoder">
<layout
class="putyourpackagenamehere.GCPCloudLoggingJSONLayout">
<pattern>%-4relative [%thread] %-5level %logger{35} - %msg</pattern>
</layout>
</encoder>
</appender>
<root level="DEBUG">
<appender-ref ref="FILE" />
</root>
</configuration>
Here is the PatternLayout class I used to produce the JSON on a single line in the log file.
import static ch.qos.logback.classic.Level.DEBUG_INT;
import static ch.qos.logback.classic.Level.ERROR_INT;
import static ch.qos.logback.classic.Level.INFO_INT;
import static ch.qos.logback.classic.Level.TRACE_INT;
import static ch.qos.logback.classic.Level.WARN_INT;
import java.util.Map;
import org.json.JSONObject;
import com.homedepot.ta.wh.common.logging.GCPCloudLoggingJSONLayout.GCPCloudLoggingEvent.GCPCloudLoggingTimestamp;
import ch.qos.logback.classic.Level;
import ch.qos.logback.classic.PatternLayout;
import ch.qos.logback.classic.spi.ILoggingEvent;

回答2:
The log levels provided by java.util.logging will map to the appropriate log levels in Cloud Logging. Logging on Flexible runtimes essentially works the same as it does on Standard.
Edit: It seems the rationale for the 'Writing Application Logs' page is that the Cloud Logging mappings don't work for all of the runtimes. However, they do seem to currently work for at least the '-compat' runtimes and Java custom runtimes. Workarounds for others are provided elsewhere in the docs (see below):
The recommended default method of logging in a Java application is to use java.util.logging (for Python it's the 'logging' module, and for Go it's the 'log' package, all of which provide log levels which map to Cloud Logging levels). I'll request that these pages get updated.
The other documents you linked to provide accurate information about logging for Java. Regarding the section you quoted, the full paragraph it was pulled from provides context. It's saying any logging framework that writes to stderr or stdout will work, but it needs to use 'java.util.logging' if you want more fine-grained log levels other than 'INFO' or 'WARNING'. A full code sample for using 'java.util.logging' is provided directly underneath the quoted section, and others are provided on the other document you mentioned, 'Logging Application Events with Java'.
Update: The 'Getting Started' guides contain specific details on how to configure logging for each runtime:
