It works by intercepting Python's standard logging system and reformatting each LogRecord as JSON, allowing you to customize which record attributes appear in the output and in what order.\n\nThe package supports multiple configuration approaches: a simple basicConfig function for quick setup, direct JsonFormatter instantiation for fine-grained control, and logging config files for declarative configuration. It also allows you to inject custom attributes into LogRecords\u2014useful in web frameworks like Flask or Django where you might want to automatically include request context (username, URL, session data) in every log line. The formatter supports all json.dumps parameters and handles non-JSON-serializable custom attributes.","worth_installing":"Yes, with conditions. Install if you need JSON-formatted logs for aggregation or structured logging in a Python application and are comfortable with source-only distribution and dormant maintenance. The package is stable and has no known vulnerabilities, but the lack of wheels and infrequent updates mean you should verify compatibility with your target Python version before production deployment. Not recommended for projects requiring active upstream support."},"id":"jsonformatter","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/jsonformatter","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/jsonformatter.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/jsonformatter/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-11-21","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"jsonformatter","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Python log in json format."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":406679,"position":6894,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.3.4"}
