winston-loki-strict v6.0.7
winston-loki-strict
Потребность в "strict" версии библиотеки потребовалась из-за того, что библиотека явно не обрабатывает ситуацию, когда при отправке логов был получен код ответа 3xx и 4xx (воспроизводится на 301 и 400), что приводит к неявной потере логов при любых ошибках конфигурации инфрастурктуры локи и форматтеров логов.
winston-loki
A Grafana Loki transport for the nodejs logging library Winston.
Usage
This Winston transport is used similarly to other Winston transports. Require winston and define a new LokiTransport() inside its options when creating it.
Examples
Several usage examples with a test configuration for Grafana+Loki+Promtail reside under examples/. If you want the simplest possible configuration, that's probably the place to check out. By defining json: true and giving winston-loki the correct host address for Loki is enough for most.
Options
LokiTransport() takes a Javascript object as an input. These are the options that are available, required in bold:
| Parameter | Description | Example | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
host | URL for Grafana Loki | http://127.0.0.1:3100 | null |
interval | The interval at which batched logs are sent in seconds | 30 | 5 |
json | Use JSON instead of Protobuf for transport | true | false |
batching | If batching is not used, the logs are sent as they come | true | true |
clearOnError | Discard any logs that result in an error during transport | true | false |
replaceTimestamp | Replace any log timestamps with Date.now() | true | false |
labels | custom labels, key-value pairs | { module: 'http' } | null |
format | winston format (https://github.com/winstonjs/winston#formats) | simple() | null |
gracefulShutdown | Enable/disable graceful shutdown (wait for any unsent batches) | false | true |
timeout | timeout for requests to grafana loki in ms | 30000 | null |
basicAuth | basic authentication credentials to access Loki over HTTP | username:password | null |
Example
With default formatting:
const { createLogger, transports } = require("winston");
const LokiTransport = require("winston-loki");
const options = {
...,
transports: [
new LokiTransport({
host: "http://127.0.0.1:3100"
})
]
...
};
const logger = createLogger(options);You can set custom labels in every log as well like this:
logger.debug({ message: 'test', labels: { 'key': 'value' } })TODO: Add custom formatting example
Developing
Requirements
Running a local Loki for testing is probably required, and the easiest way to do that is to follow this guide: https://github.com/grafana/loki/tree/master/production#run-locally-using-docker. After that, Grafana Loki instance is available at http://localhost:3100, with a Grafana instance running at http://localhost:3000. Username admin, password admin. Add the Loki source with the URL http://loki:3100, and the explorer should work.
Refer to https://grafana.com/docs/loki/latest/api/ for documentation about the available endpoints, data formats etc.
Example
npm install
npm link
cd ~/your_project
npm link winston-loki
npm installAnd you should have a working, requirable winston-loki package under your project's node_modules. After the link has been established, any changes to winston-loki should show on rerun of the software that uses it.
Run tests
