Re: [basex-talk] Logging in JSON format

28 Nov 2022

      Hi Huib,
...
Is it possible to make BaseX generate logs in JSON format?
You can convert BaseX logs to JSON as follows (just an example):

let $day := '2022-11-28'
let $entries := admin:logs($day, true())
let $result := array {
  for $entry in $entries
  return map:merge((
    $entry/@* ! map:entry(name(), data()),
    map:entry('message', data($entry))
  ))
}
return json:serialize($result)

…yields something like…

[
  {
    "message": "bla",
    "user": "admin",
    "time": "13:18:01.982",
    "address": "SERVER",
    "type": "INFO"
  }
]

There is currently no way to choose different log output formats, as too
many BaseX features rely on our standard format.

Hope this helps,
Christian
