pino-abstract-transport


Write Pino transports easily.

Install

``sh
npm i pino-abstract-transport
`

Usage

`js
import build from 'pino-abstract-transport'

export default async function (opts) {
return build(async function (source) {
for await (let obj of source) {
console.log(obj)
}
})
}
`

or in CommonJS and streams:

`js
'use strict'

const build = require('pino-abstract-transport')

module.exports = function (opts) {
return build(function (source) {
source.on('data', function (obj) {
console.log(obj)
})
})
}
`

Typescript usage

Install the type definitions for node. Make sure the major version of the type definitions matches the node version you are using.

#### Node 16

`sh
npm i -D @types/node@16
`

API

$3

Create a split2 instance and returns it.
This same instance is also passed to the given function, which is called
synchronously.

If opts.transform is true, pino-abstract-transform will
wrap the split2 instance and the returned stream using duplexify,
so they can be concatenated into multiple transports.

#### Events emitted

In addition to all events emitted by a Readable
stream, it emits the following events:

* unknown where an unparsable line is found, both the line and optional error is emitted.

#### Options

* parse an option to change to data format passed to build function. When this option is set to lines,
the data is passed as a string, otherwise the data is passed as an object. Default: undefined.

* close(err, cb) a function that is called to shutdown the transport. It's called both on error and non-error shutdowns.
It can also return a promise. In this case discard the the cb argument.

* parseLine(line) a function that is used to parse line received from pino.

* expectPinoConfig a boolean that indicates if the transport expects Pino to add some of its configuration to the stream. Default: false.

Example

You can allow custom parseLine from users while providing a simple and safe default parseLine.

`js
'use strict'

const build = require('pino-abstract-transport')

function defaultParseLine (line) {
const obj = JSON.parse(line)
// property foo will be added on each line
obj.foo = 'bar'
return obj
}

module.exports = function (opts) {
const parseLine = typeof opts.parseLine === 'function' ? opts.parseLine : defaultParseLine
return build(function (source) {
source.on('data', function (obj) {
console.log(obj)
})
}, {
parseLine: parseLine
})
}
`

You can pipeline multiple transports:

`js
const build = require('pino-abstract-transport')
const { Transform, pipeline } = require('stream')

function buildTransform () {
return build(function (source) {
return new Transform({
objectMode: true,
autoDestroy: true,
transform (line, enc, cb) {
line.service = 'bob'
cb(null, JSON.stringify(line))
}
})
}, { enablePipelining: true })
}

function buildDestination () {
return build(function (source) {
source.on('data', function (obj) {
console.log(obj)
})
})
}

pipeline(process.stdin, buildTransform(), buildDestination(), function (err) {
console.log('pipeline completed!', err)
})
`

$3

Setting expectPinoConfig to true will make the transport wait for pino to send its configuration before starting to process logs. It will add levels, messageKey and errorKey to the stream.

When used with an incompatible version of pino, the stream will immediately error.

`js
import build from 'pino-abstract-transport'

export default function (opts) {
return build(async function (source) {
for await (const obj of source) {
console.log([${source.levels.labels[obj.level]}]: ${obj[source.messageKey]})
}
}, {
expectPinoConfig: true
})
}
