logging: ISO 8601 timestamps #2247

Open dwlfrth opened 7 years ago

dwlfrth commented 7 years ago

PacketFence currently uses the following format for timestamps in logs: Apr 18 09:34:52

When you want to integrate with log parsers and such, it might become difficult to parse the log. We should use a more "standard" format

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

At the same time, we could introduce milliseconds in the timestamp.

Check if we can address it in rsyslog. Then ship with enabled/disabled option
