Ink

Ink is a backend for the Elixir Logger with two main purposes:

• to log JSON documents instead of normal log lines
• to filter secret strings out of the log lines

Installation

Just add :ink to your dependencies and run mix deps.get.

def deps do
  [{:ink, "~> 1.0"}]
end

Usage

The only thing you have to do is drop some lines into your config.

# this will add Ink as the only backend for Logger
config :logger,
  backends: [Ink]

# at least configure a name for your app
config :logger, Ink,
  name: "your app"

For more information on how to use Ink, take a look at the docs.
