How to make nginx error logs in JSON instead of its default logging format?

I need to display statistics from log files on my custom GUI. The log files are expected to be huge so parsing them manually would be overkill. However, if there is a way to output the error logs in JSON instead of simple text, it could save a lot of time.

Is there a way to do that? can we set custom log format for error_log?

Correct, as of my knowledge, error log can not have json & custom format. however, access log can have the same.
