Write out JSON formatted logs in the format and with the attributes that Datadog expects
pip install datadog-log
The simplest way is to use init_logging() which will log to stdout.
If you want finner control then you can use DatadogFormatter directly. See init_logging for example usage.
Use logging as normal:
import logging
import datadoglog
datadoglog.init_logging()
log = logging.getLogger("example")
log.setLevel(logging.INFO)
log.info("Some info", extra={"extra": ["json"]})The above would output json like below (but as a single line, shown 'pretty' here for readability):
{
"message": "Some info",
"extra": ["json"],
"timestamp": "2021-09-18T21:14:07.707371+00:00",
"status": "info",
"logger": {
"name": "example",
"method_name": "<stdin>.<module>",
"thread_name": "MainThread"
}
}
