# NAME
Log::Log4perl::Layout::JSON::Readable - JSON layout, but some fields always come first
# DESCRIPTION
This layout works just like [`Log::Log4perl::Layout::JSON`](
https://metacpan.org/pod/Log::Log4perl::Layout::JSON), but
it always prints some fields first, even with `canonical => 1`.
The fields to print first are set via the `first_fields` attribute,
which is a comma-separated list of field names (defaults to `time,
pid, level`, like in the synopsis).
So, instead of:
{"category":"App.Minion.stats","level":"TRACE","message":"Getting metrics","pid":"6689","time":"2018-04-04 13:57:23,990"}
you get:
{"time":"2018-04-04 13:57:23,990","pid":"6689","level":"TRACE","category":"App.Minion.stats","message":"Getting metrics"}
which is more readable (e.g. for the timestamp) and usable (e.g. for
the pid).
