How to add a bunch of defaults to python/django logging
I would like to add in the following for every log entry:
user
request_method
status
The only way I've seen to be able to do this is a bit of a hackish way, which is to pass them as args, because that's picked up by the django formatter (I don't see any place where you can pass kwargs -- https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html#formatter-objects). Here's an example:
log.info("hi", "user": str(request.user))
And the following formatter:
'format': '"message": "%(message)s", "extra": "%(args)s"',
When I parse the log I do something like this:
info =
'message': message
data = ast.literal_eval(extra)
for k,v in extra.items():
info[k] = v
It seems pretty ghetto -- is there a better way to do this, for example, a way to get the kwargs in the formatter? When I try doing something like:
log.info("hi", extra = "user": str(request.user))
It either errors, or doesn't pass in the args (obviously).

I would do it by linking the request to the current thread of execution. Here's an example of how to do this:
https://nedbatchelder.com/blog/201008/global_django_requests.html
Then you can use get_request() in your logging handler to get the request, from which you can get the user. (I'm not sure what you mean by "status")
