+  outputs:
+    - eve-log:
+        json:
+          # Sort object keys in the same order as they were inserted
+          preserve-order: yes
+
+          # Make the output more compact
+          compact: yes
+
+          # Escape all unicode characters outside the ASCII range
+          ensure-ascii: yes
+
+          # Escape the '/' characters in string with '\/'
+          escape-slash: yes
+
+All these flags are enabled by default, and can be modified per EVE instance.
