Pretty JSON Log

Pretty JSON Log plugin for IntelliJ Platform makes NDJSON (Newline Delimited JSON a.k.a. JSON Lines) logs more readable in the console. It has the following features:

• JSON Parsing: Automatically parses each log line as JSON and extracts essential log information such as timestamp, log level, and message.
• Colorful Display: Displays essential log information in different colors depending on the log level to make it easier to read.
• Readable Timestamp: Formats the timestamp in a human-friendly format.
• Expandable Pretty JSON: Prints a well-formatted JSON string following the log message. The JSON string is folded by default, but you can expand it when you need to view the full details.
• Seamless Integration: Supports various log formats such as Logstash, Bunyan, Pino, log/slog, Cloud Logging, etc. with no additional configuration or software.

This plugin is useful when you are developing a modern system that outputs logs in JSON format. You no longer need to switch log formats between production and local development environments.
