Request, response logger middleware using bunyan. Also provides request<>response duration.
npm install bunyan-middleware
Request, response logger middleware for bunyan:
- log request as req
- log response as res
- log response close events as warnings
- log request<>response duration in milliseconds as duration
- creates, use and forward to response the x-request-id request header: get it if present, create it otherwise (uuid.v1())
- log request id as req_id and exposes it as req.reqId
- provides req.log and res.log as an id-specialized logger for you to track your request in your entire application, every time you access the request or response object
- compatible with pure http server, express, connect and any http middleware system
- uses serializers for req and res based on bunyan serializers if you do not already have a serializer defined.
- obscure headers containing sensitive information in log outputs (configurable with obscureHeaders)
- TypeScript support
``shell`
yarn add bunyan-middleware
or
`shell`
npm install bunyan-middleware --save
`js
const bunyan = require('bunyan')
const bunyanMiddleware = require('bunyan-middleware')
const express = require('express')
const app = express()
const logger = bunyan.createLogger({ name: 'My App' })
app.use(bunyanMiddleware(
{ headerName: 'X-Request-Id'
, propertyName: 'reqId'
, logName: 'req_id'
, obscureHeaders: []
, logger: logger
, additionalRequestFinishData: function(req, res) {
return { example: true }
}
}
)
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
// now use req.log as your request-specialized bunyan logger`
req.log.info('YO DAWG!')
res.send('ok')
})
`ts`
import bunyanMiddleware = require('bunyan-middleware')
Will use and forward X-Request-Id (case insensitive) header when present.
Otherwise it will generate a
uuid.v1()
and add it to the response headers.
The request id is also available as req.reqId.
If you are using this with express and mounted app which rewrites req.url andbunyan.serializers.req
you are using , then the url in the log output will bereq.originalUrl
the rewritten url. To fix that bunyan-middleware is using its own request
serializer instead of the default one which is using instead.
logger REQUIRED
- The bunyan logger instance.
headerName Default: 'X-Request-Id'
- The name of the HTTP header for the request id.
propertyName Default: 'reqId'
- The name for the property on the request object to set the request id.
additionalRequestFinishData Default: undefined
- A function receiving req and res as arguments returning an object. The elements in the returned object will be added to the fields in the request finish message.
filter Default: undefined
- A function receiving req and res as arguments returning a boolean.
If this functions return value is truthy it will skip all logging for
this request/response.
logName Default: 'req_id'
- The name for the request id in the log output.
level Default: 'info'
- At which log level request start and request finish should be logged.
obscureHeaders Default: null
- Set to an array with header names to hide header values from log output.
The output will still show header names, with value set to null.
- Eg: [ 'Authorization' ]
excludeHeaders Default: null
- Set to an array with header names to remove them from log output.
- Eg: [ 'Authorization' ]
requestStart Default: false
- Log the start of the request.
verbose Default: false
- Log req and res for request start and request finish.
