How would you go about extracting the XML/JSON bits from the rest of
what is in the log file? (apologies if this is a question I should
already know the answer to)
If you do CSV output, it's in a field.
And even if it's not, a well formed XML document would be fairly easy to
extract, especially if the root element is well known (e.g. <pg:explain>
or some such). And if the patch doesn't produce a well-formed XML doc
then it needs work ;-). It might be nice if Robert were to post some
samples of the output.
Quick question: does the patch use formal methods using, say, the DOM
API to build up the XML, or informal methods (like
foo.append('<element>'); foo.append(content); foo.append('</element>'); )
As you can tell, I haven't looked over it yet. But I intend to ;-)
