loopback-bunyan-logger

updated {loopback-component-logger}

**incase if you dont want the child node logs. please use the version ^1.1.2 of loopback-bunyan-looger.

Logging component for loopback using bunyan logger with additional loopback specific hooks and log management API

Features

Default logger using bunyan
Can use of custom bunyan streams to create root logger
Hook: Basic performance instrumentation for remote execution
Hook: Log management API (configurable)

Usage

Example server.js:

var loopback = require('loopback');
var boot = require('loopback-boot');
var rootlogger = bunyan.createlogger({name: 'myloopbackAPI'});
var logger = require('loopback-bunyan-logger')(rootlogger);
var app = module.exports = loopback();

If rootlogger is not provide, the component creates a logger with default bunyan settings:

var loopback = require('loopback');
var boot = require('loopback-boot');
var logger = require('loopback-bunyan-logger')();
var app = module.exports = loopback();

Child loggers can be created for model as shown below. By default child loggers inherit the log level from root.

var logger = require('loopback-bunyan-logger')('TestModel');
module.exports = function(TestModel) {
    logger.debug('Initializing TestModel');
};

To add hooks and log management API to loopback, add configuration to component-config.json:

{
  "loopback-component-explorer": {
    "mountPath": "/explorer"
  },
  "loopback-bunyan-logger": {
      "enableAPI" : true
  }
}

Make sure enableHttpContext is set as true in config.json for to allow collection of datasources performance within req/res If you dont want expand the child nodes please use version @1.1.2

Roadmap

Additional Unit Test and Coverage
Integrate with Strongloop Devops tools

Known Issue

datasources performance will not recorded at times when loopback context is null. Noticed this issue when a composite called MongoDB followed by REST. Only MongoDB response time was recorded and REST was missing.
