json-rails-logger

A custom rails logger that outputs JSON instead of raw text. As an extra the logger also saves the request_id for any log message, in the returned JSON object. The formatter has a couple of changes that are down to preference, but these don't affect the functionality in any way. This gem can be used with any Rails app using the installation steps below.

Installation

In your Rails app, add this to your gemfile:
gem 'json_rails_logger', git: '[email protected]:epimorphics/json-rails-logger.git'

And this to your environment config:
config.logger = JsonRailsLogger::Logger.new(STDOUT)
