Formatting Messages

When using dot-log, the logged value is not limited to a string. Arrays can be logged as well. For better readability, these arrays can be serialized. DotLog provides String and JSON formatting.

The formatter accepts following parameters:

  • name - the formatter class (it must implement Dot\Log\Formatter\FormatterInterface)
  • options - passed to the formatter constructor if required

The following snippet formats the message as JSON data:

'formatter' => [
    'name' => \Dot\Log\Formatter\Json::class,
],
