# Structured Log Formatter **Terminal utility to pretty-print JSON-strucutred log lines.** ## Usage `slfmt` is intended to be used to filter logging output from a process. It reads from `stdin` and writes to `stdout`. It expects to see a JSON object on each line of input, and will pretty-print the object to `stdout`. Escape codes in the log lines (`\n` for newlines, etc.) are supported and will be expanded in the output. Any lines that are not valid JSON objects will be printed as-is to `stdout`. Example: ```bash ./run-server | slfmt ``` Sample Output: ``` --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- scope: "server/rest_api" level: "ERROR" ts: 2025-01-03T08:46:35-06:00 (local) 2025-01-03T14:46:35Z (UTC) msg: unhandled exception (DbError) err: ERROR: relation "users" does not exist LINE 1: SELECT id FROM users WHERE id = '43422d65-6874-44ce-b9b3-f8c... ^ stack: /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy.nim(519) workerProc /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy.nim(450) runTask /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy/routers.nim(271) :anonymous /home/username/projects/server/api/src/main/nim/server_api/api.nim(65) :anonymous /home/username/projects/server/api/src/main/nim/server_api/auth.nim(74) extractSession /home/username/projects/fiber-orm-nim/src/fiber_orm.nim(599) createOrUpdateUser /home/username/projects/fiber-orm-nim/src/fiber_orm.nim(384) createOrUpdateRecord /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/db_connector-0.1.0-d68319e3785fa937f0465ea915e942b61b6b5442/db_connector/db_postgres.nim(497) getAllRows /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/db_connector-0.1.0-d68319e3785fa937f0465ea915e942b61b6b5442/db_connector/db_postgres.nim(174) setupQuery /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/db_connector-0.1.0-d68319e3785fa937f0465ea915e942b61b6b5442/db_connector/db_postgres.nim(116) dbError [[reraised from: /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy.nim(519) workerProc /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy.nim(450) runTask /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy/routers.nim(271) :anonymous /home/username/projects/server/api/src/main/nim/server_api/api.nim(65) :anonymous /home/username/projects/server/api/src/main/nim/server_api/auth.nim(74) extractSession /home/username/projects/fiber-orm-nim/src/fiber_orm.nim(727) createOrUpdateUser ]] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- scope: "server/rest_api" level: "ERROR" ts: 2025-01-03T08:46:35-06:00 (local) 2025-01-03T14:46:35Z (UTC) msg: unhandled exception (DbError) err: ERROR: relation "users" does not exist LINE 1: SELECT id FROM users WHERE id = '43422d65-6874-44ce-b9b3-f8c... ^ stack: /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy.nim(519) workerProc /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy.nim(450) runTask /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy/routers.nim(271) :anonymous /home/username/projects/server/api/src/main/nim/server_api/api.nim(65) :anonymous /home/username/projects/server/api/src/main/nim/server_api/auth.nim(74) extractSession /home/username/projects/fiber-orm-nim/src/fiber_orm.nim(599) createOrUpdateUser /home/username/projects/fiber-orm-nim/src/fiber_orm.nim(384) createOrUpdateRecord /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/db_connector-0.1.0-d68319e3785fa937f0465ea915e942b61b6b5442/db_connector/db_postgres.nim(497) getAllRows /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/db_connector-0.1.0-d68319e3785fa937f0465ea915e942b61b6b5442/db_connector/db_postgres.nim(174) setupQuery /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/db_connector-0.1.0-d68319e3785fa937f0465ea915e942b61b6b5442/db_connector/db_postgres.nim(116) dbError [[reraised from: /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy.nim(519) workerProc /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy.nim(450) runTask /home/username/.local/share/mise/installs/nim/2.2.0/nimble/pkgs2/mummy-0.4.5-cb7f70cd4d6fd3a563e00e664cfbd8cbd3c39b79/mummy/routers.nim(271) :anonymous /home/username/projects/server/api/src/main/nim/server_api/api.nim(65) :anonymous /home/username/projects/server/api/src/main/nim/server_api/auth.nim(74) extractSession /home/username/projects/fiber-orm-nim/src/fiber_orm.nim(727) createOrUpdateUser ]] ```
