@strychnine-labs/windows-eventlog v5.0.0
Windows Event Log Js
Native node.js module to log messages to the Windows Event Log.
Installation
$ npm install @strychnine-labs/windows-eventlogPrerequisites
You need to have a compatible Visual Studio compiler installed, e.g.:
Usage
When using the library like this:
const { EventLog } = require('windows-eventlog');
const logger = new EventLog("MyAppName");
logger.logSync("warn", "a message");
logger.logSync("a message"); // severity defaults to "info"
logger.log("error", "a message", function(err) {
if (err) throw err;
});new EventLog(logName)
This creates an instance of the EventLog. You can optionally pass a logName, defaults to "Application".
eventLog.log(severity, message, callback)
This method will create an entry in the event log with the given message.
Optionally you can specify a severity a.k.a log entry type. The possible values are "info", "warn" and "error".
eventLog.logSync(severity, message)
Same as eventLog.log() except that it blocks.
How it works
This module is a native module using Windows' API function ReportEvent.
Node.js applications using this module do not require an elevated account to log to the Windows Event Log.
