riverpig v1.1.4

Riverpig

Simple downstream log driver for twelve-factor apps

Why?

We wanted a simple logger that logs to stdout and works well with debug.

Features

• Integrates with debug
• Same log levels as Console: info, warn, error
• Can log callsites (file, line number where log method was called)

Usage

Use debug to add logging to your libraries. In your main application add riverpig:

npm install --save riverpig

And then add logging to each module like so:

const logger = require('riverpig')('mymodule')

logger.info('module loaded')
logger.warn('reaching the end of the module')
logger.error('module actually does not do anything')

Environment config

RIVERPIG_LINEINFO

Log the file and line where the log method was called. Disabled by default for performance.

Possible values:

• smart, 1 or true - Let Riverpig select the most useful formatting for callsite information.
• long - Log the full, absolute path.
• short - Log the absolute path, with folder names truncated to one character, e.g. /u/l/b/example.js
• fileonly - Log only the file name without path.
