{"level":"INFO","timestamp":"2017-12-18T08:55:19+00:00","message":"hoge","environment":"development"}
{"level":"INFO","timestamp":"2017-12-18T08:55:19+00:00","environment":"development","method":"GET","path":"/api/health_check","format":"html","controller":"Api::HealthCheckController","action":"index","status":200,"duration":1.89,"view":0.81,"db":0.0,"exception":null,"exception_object":null}

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'logist'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install logist

You have to use logist logger in your config/evnrionments/[rails-env].rb:

Rails.application.configure do
  # ...
  config.logger = Logist::Logger.new(STDOUT)
end

You can change logger configuration like this:

Rails.application.configure do
  # ...
  config.logger = Logist::Logger.new(STDOUT, datetime_format: "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%:z:")
end

or

Rails.application.configure do
  # ...
  config.logger = Logist::Logger.new(STDOUT)
  config.logger.formatter.datetime_format = "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%:z"
end

If you want to log Hash object, but you don't want to have nested JSON, you can set flat_json=true:

config.logger.formatter.flat_json = true

When flat_json=false (default):

{"level":"INFO","message":{"foo":"bar"}}

When flat_json=true:

{"level":"INFO","foo":"bar"}
