npm.io

This is a transport module for the winston logger winstonjs/winston for logging with Sematext Cloud.

Winston-Logsene combines the flexibility of using the Winston logging framework with Sematext Cloud (think Hosted Elasticsearch + Kibana). Create your free account and access token here.

Usage

const Logsene = require('winston-logsene')
const { createLogger, format, config } = require('winston')

const logger = createLogger({
  levels: config.npm.levels,
  transports: [new Logsene({
    token: process.env.LOGS_TOKEN,
    level: 'debug',
    type: 'test_logs',
    url: 'https://logsene-receiver.sematext.com/_bulk'
  })]
})

Options

  • token - Create your free account and access token here.
  • type - Type of your logs - please note you can define Elasticsearch mapping templates in Sematext Cloud
  • url - Sematext Cloud receiver URL (or URL for Sematext Enterprise / On Premises), defaults to Sematext Cloud (US) receiver https://logsene-receiver.sematext.com/_bulk. To ship logs to Sematext Cloud (EU) in Europe use https://logsene-receiver.eu.sematext.com/_bulk
  • handleExceptions - boolean 'true' logs 'uncaught exceptions'
  • handleErrors - boolean 'true' logs 'unhandled errors'
  • exitOnError - if set to 'false' process will not exit after logging the 'uncaught exceptions'
  • source - name of the logging source, by default name of the main node.js module
  • setSource - "true" adds "source" to the log event (modifies the object!), default false
  • rewriter - similar to rewriters in winston, rewriter allows modifying of log meta but only for the logsene transport. This is a simple function which takes level, msg, meta as parameter and returns the new meta array
  • flushOnExit - Handling SIGTERM, SIGQT, SIGINT and 'beforeExit' to flush logs and terminate. Default value: true.

Examples

var Logsene = require('winston-logsene')
const { createLogger, format, config } = require('winston')

// example for custom rewriter, e.g. add myServerIp field to all logs
var myServerIp = '10.0.0.12'

var logger = createLogger({
  levels: config.npm.levels,
  transports: [new Logsene({
    // set log level, defaut is 'info'
    level: 'debug',
    // optional set a format function
    format: format.splat(),
    token: process.env.LOGS_TOKEN,
    rewriter: function (level, msg, meta) {
      meta.ip = myServerIp
      return meta
    }
  })]
})

logger.info('debug', 'Info Message')
// use dynamic list of placeholders and parameters for format.splat(), and any Object as Metadata
logger.info('Info message no. %d logged to %s', 1, 'Sematext Cloud', {meta: 'test-log', count: 1, tags: ['test', 'info', 'winston']})
// message placeholders work the same way as in util.format()
// utilize tags (in the metadata object) as filter to be used in Sematext Cloud user interface
logger.info('Info Message', {tags: ['info', 'test']})
logger.error('Error message no. %d logged to %s', 1, 'Sematext Cloud', {meta: 'test-error', count: 1, tags: ['test', 'error', 'winston']})
logger.warn('Warning message no. %d logged to %s', 1, 'Sematext Cloud', {meta: 'test-warning', count: 1, tags: ['test', 'warning', 'winston']})
logger.debug('Debug message no. %d logged to %s', 1, 'Sematext Cloud', {meta: 'test-debug', count: 1})

Schema / Mapping definition for Meta-Data

It is possible to log any JSON Object as meta data, but please note Sematext Cloud stores data in Elasticsearch and therefore you should define an index template, matching your data structure. More about Elasticsearch mapping and templates for Sematext Cloud: https://sematext.com/blog/custom-elasticsearch-index-templates-in-logsene/

In addition you should use different types for different meta data structures to avoid type conflicts in Elasticsearch. Include a type name in the meta-data like {type: 'logType1', ...} - this overwrites the "type" property, specified in the contstructor.

logger.add (logsene, {token: process.env.LOGSENE_TOKEN, type: 'my_logs'})
// numeric id, log type from constructor
logger.info('hello', {id: 1})
// The next line will cause a type conflict in Elasticsearch/Sematext Cloud, because id was a number before
logger.info('hello', {id: 'ID-1'})
// using a different type, OK no type conflict for the field 'id' in Elasticsearch//Sematext Cloud
// because we use a different type in the Elasticsearch//Sematext Cloud index
logger.info('hello', {type: 'my_type_with_string_ids',{id: 'ID-1'}})
