yet-another-json-logger

Yet another JSON logger.

Complete with opinionated decisions and hardcoded personal preferences.

Usage

import logging

from yajl import JsonFormatter

json_handler = logging.FileHandler('log.json')
json_handler.setFormatter(JsonFormatter())

logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
logger.addHandler(json_handler)
logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)

logger.info('Alice says %r', 'hi!')
try:
    1 / 0
except ZeroDivisionError:
    logger.exception('Bob divided by zero!')

Will result in log.json containing:
