* \li \c file_name - Specifies the active file name pattern where logs are actually written to. The pattern may
* contain directory and file name portions, but only the file name may contain
* placeholders. The backend supports Boost.DateTime placeholders for injecting
* current time and date into the file name. Also, an additional %N placeholder is
* supported, it will be replaced with an integral increasing file counter. The placeholder
* may also contain width specification in the printf-compatible form (e.g. %5N). The
* printed file counter will always be zero-filled. If \c file_name is not specified,
* pattern "%5N.log" will be used.
* \li \c target_file_name - Specifies the target file name pattern to use to rename the log file on rotation,
* before passing it to the file collector. The pattern may contain the same
* placeholders as the \c file_name parameter. By default, no renaming is done,
* i.e. the written log file keeps its name according to \c file_name.
* \li \c open_mode - File open mode. The mode should be presented in form of mask compatible to
* <tt>std::ios_base::openmode</tt>. If not specified, <tt>trunc | out</tt> will be used.
* \li \c rotation_size - Specifies the approximate size, in characters written, of the temporary file
* upon which the file is passed to the file collector. Note the size does
* not count any possible character conversions that may take place during
* writing to the file. If not specified, the file won't be rotated upon reaching
* any size.
* \li \c time_based_rotation - Specifies the predicate for time-based file rotation.
* No time-based file rotations will be performed, if not specified.
* \li \c enable_final_rotation - Specifies a flag, whether or not perform log file rotation on
* sink backend destruction. By default, is \c true.
* \li \c auto_flush - Specifies a flag, whether or not to automatically flush the file after each
* written log record. By default, is \c false.
* \li \c auto_newline_mode - Specifies automatic trailing newline insertion mode. Must be a value of
* the \c auto_newline_mode enum. By default, is <tt>auto_newline_mode::insert_if_missing</tt>.
*
* \note Read the caution note regarding file name pattern in the <tt>sinks::file::collector::scan_for_files</tt>
