How to disable console logging in spring-boot?

I created a file called logback.xml with the content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <include resource="org/springframework/boot/logging/logback/base.xml" />
    <logger name="org.springframework" level="ERROR"/>
    <logger name="org.hibernate" level="ERROR"/>
</configuration>

See this link for more information: https://www.mkyong.com/spring-boot/spring-boot-test-how-to-stop-debug-logs/

1. Create a file logback-spring.xml in /resources/ folder of your application.
2. Copy the below content in logback-spring.xml

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <appender name = "STDOUT" class = "ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
        <encoder>
            <pattern>%m%n</pattern>
        </encoder>
    </appender>
    <root level = "INFO">
        <appender-ref ref = "STDOUT"/>
    </root>
</configuration>

It turned out if I set the following property empty, the console logging is disabled:

logging.pattern.console=

Or commenting in xml if you use it

  <!--<root level="error">-->
        <!--<appender-ref ref="console"/>-->
    <!--</root>-->
