# winstonjs-http-transport
Custom HTTP Transport for [winston][1]

**NOTE**
This is experimental code. Do not use in production


## Why?
Winston already has a built-in HTTP Transport but it recommends using [winstond][2] as a backend which claims to [support both HTTP and nssocket][3]

If you already have an API endpoint for logging and looking for a really simple HTTP Transport to directly POST the logs there, you might find this usefull

## Usage
``` js
import HTTPTransport from 'winstonjs-http-transport'
// OR
const HTTPTransport = require('winstonjs-http-transport')


logger.add(new HTTPTransport({
    logServer: 'http://your-log-server.com',
    room: 'backend-logs',
    bufferInterval: 1000 // ms
}))
```

This will POST the logs in the following JSON format
``` json
{
    "room": "backend-logs",
    "logs": [
        { "message": "Hello", "level": "info" },
        { "message": "World", "level": "warn" }
    ]
}
```
to the endpoint http://your-log-server.com/logs every 1000 ms (only if there are logs in that window)

If you want to use this module, I encourage you to see the code (it's just 27 lines) before and make any required changes as it is currently not optimized enough
