winston-opentelemetry v1.0.0

winston-opentelemetry

Winston transport for OpenTelemetry. Outputs logs in the OpenTelemetry Log Data Model and sends them to an OTLP logs collector.

Install

npm i winston-opentelemetry

Configuration

Protocol

can be set to http/protobuf, grpc, http or console by using

• env var OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL
• env var OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_LOGS_PROTOCOL
• setting the exporterProtocol option

Settings configured programmatically take precedence over environment variables. Per-signal environment variables take precedence over non-per-signal environment variables. This principle applies to all the configurations in this module.

If no protocol is specified, http/protobuf is used as a default.
