Formatting porblem

[ghost]

I am using the new version and I have a problem with formatting. I want the plaintext with the configuration below:

formatters: { plaintext: { date_format: '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S' }, }

But the app still uses json to export. Would you please kindly help?

As of version 2.0, messages are always dumped to json files first. When the dump is complete it is then processed by the enabled formatters. In your case, when the script successfully finishes you should see the following directories (assuming default directory settings):

output
output/json
output/formatted
output/formatted/plaintext
