How to Define a Custom Logging Formatter
Each logging handler uses a Formatter to format the record before logging
it. All Monolog handlers use an instance of
Monolog\Formatter\LineFormatter by default but you can replace it
easily. Your formatter must implement
Monolog\Formatter\FormatterInterface.
For example, to use the built-in JsonFormatter, register it as a service then
configure your handler to use it:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
# app/config/services.yml
services:
# ...
Monolog\Formatter\JsonFormatter: ~
# app/config/config_prod.yml (and/or config_dev.yml)
monolog:
handlers:
file:
type: stream
level: debug
formatter: Monolog\Formatter\JsonFormatter
