+/**
+ * An Appender that automatically creates a new logfile each day.
+ *
+ * The file is rolled over once a day. That means, for each day a new file
+ * is created. A formatted version of the date pattern is used as to create
+ * the file name using the {@link PHP_MANUAL#sprintf} function.
+ *
+ * This appender uses a layout.
+ *
+ * ##Configurable parameters:##
+ *
+ * - **datePattern** - Format for the date in the file path, follows formatting
+ *     rules used by the PHP date() function. Default value: "Ymd".
+ * - **file** - Path to the target file. Should contain a %s which gets
+ *     substituted by the date.
+ * - **append** - If set to true, the appender will append to the file,
+ *     otherwise the file contents will be overwritten. Defaults to true.
+ *
