*Use case* I need to convert the log format that is used for `:console` to print in json format. (Because we use a docker syslog backend that forwards `stdout` to logstash).
*Preferred Solution* Ideally, I would give the `:console` backend a custom formatter via config. The custom formatter than just converts the metadata and message to a json string, which is printed by the default `console` backend. But right now the backend relies on `Logger.Formatter` exclusively. *Alternative* Add a custom backend that in fact intercepts the log message and converts it to json and then forwards it to the `:console` backend. Drawback: one need to somehow start and wrap the `console` backend. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elixir-lang-core" group.
