        """Log a structured log event.

        A structured log event consists of a logging level, a string action, a
        dictionary of attributes, and a formatting string.

        The logging level is one of the logging.* constants, such as
        logging.INFO.

        The action string is essentially the enumeration of the event. Each
        different type of logged event should have a different action.

        The params dict is the metadata constituting the logged event.

        The formatting string is used to convert the structured message back to
        human-readable format. Conversion back to human-readable form is
        performed by calling format() on this string, feeding into it the dict
        of attributes constituting the event.

        Example Usage:

        .. code-block:: python

            self.log(logging.DEBUG, 'login', {'username': 'johndoe'},
                'User login: {username}')
        """
        self._logger.log(level, format_str, extra={"action": action, "params": params})
