1068	Support JSON log format	dimaqq@…		"I'm trying to set up complex system, which uses a log aggregator (at the moment fluentd).

Obv., logs could be parsed, but that's hacky and impacts upgrade path.

There's a hack to manually format nginx access.log as JSON (log_format le_json '{""time"":""$time_iso8601"", ...) but it's not good enough.

Nginx can only (?) log entire request string, and it escapes this data.

Nginx uses \x?? escape sequences, while JSON only supports \u????.

For the time being I have to use apache instead :("	enhancement	closed	minor		nginx-core	1.11.x	fixed			Linux (docker) 4.7.2-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Aug 20 23:02:56 CEST 2016 x86_64 GNU/Linux	"nginx version: nginx/1.11.1
