GKE & Stackdriver: Java logback logging format?
This answer contained most of the information I needed: https://stackoverflow.com/a/39779646
I have adapted the answer to fit my exact question, and to fix some weird imports and code that seems to have been deprecated.
logback.xml:
<configuration>
<appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
<encoder class="ch.qos.logback.core.encoder.LayoutWrappingEncoder">
<layout class="my.package.logging.GCPCloudLoggingJSONLayout">
<pattern>%-4relative [%thread] %-5level %logger{35} - %msg</pattern>
</layout>
</encoder>
</appender>
<root level="INFO">
<appender-ref ref="STDOUT"/>
</root>
</configuration>
GCPCloudLoggingJSONLayout:
import ch.qos.logback.classic.Level;
import ch.qos.logback.classic.PatternLayout;
import ch.qos.logback.classic.spi.ILoggingEvent;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonProcessingException;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import java.util.Map;
import static ch.qos.logback.classic.Level.DEBUG_INT;
import static ch.qos.logback.classic.Level.ERROR_INT;
import static ch.qos.logback.classic.Level.INFO_INT;
import static ch.qos.logback.classic.Level.TRACE_INT;
import static ch.qos.logback.classic.Level.WARN_INT;

As I said earlier, the code was originally from another answer, I have just cleaned up the code slightly to fit my use-case better.
