1. Caddy version (caddy version):
2.5
2. How I run Caddy:
currently use localhost
a. System environment:
Windows 11
b. Command:
caddy start
c. Service/unit/compose file:
N/A
d. My complete Caddyfile or JSON config:
{
debug
}
:80, localhost, http:// {
root * B:/tests
file_server browse
log {
output file site.log
format json
}
}
3. The problem I’m having:
I went through the documentation for format-modules and couldn’t figure out how to customize the information that appears in the log. I only wanted the most basic information, just URI and referrer, and I know that the ts, level, logger, and msg fields also get included. I bolded the fields that I wanted to keep in the output below.
I saw documentation for calling the log formatter (like json) and saw the json documentation for log in the link I included below, but I have no idea how to combine the two to get any customization. I tried compiling with the transform-encoder module as well and couldn’t get it to work.
If you could provide an example of what I should include in my caddyfile that would help so much. Thanks for your time.

5. What I already tried:
I tried using a build with the transform-encoder but didn’t get anywhere with that. Here was the config I tried with that:
log {
output file site.log
format formatted “{ts} {level} {request>uri}”
}
