Re: ORM for structured Logs

Hello Brick Wall, how are you doing?

In the past I was told: Don't store logs in the database.

Time (and hardware) has changed.

I think it is time to store logs where I have great tools for analyzing logs.

Storing in a model which I can access via django orm is my current strategy.

It seems no one has done this before. I could not find such a project up to now.

My first draft looks like this:

class Log(models.Model):
    datetime=models.DateTimeField(default=datetime.datetime.now, db_index=True)
    data=jsonfield.JSONField()
    host=models.CharField(max_length=256, default='localhost', db_index=True)
    system=models.CharField(max_length=256, default='', db_index=True)

I am missing two things:

 Missing1: Log level: INFO, WARN, ...

 Missing2: A way to store exceptions.


What do you think?

What's wrong with this, what could be improved?
