@types/winston
Advanced tools
@types/winston provides TypeScript type definitions for the winston logging library, enabling developers to use winston with TypeScript and benefit from type checking and autocompletion.
Basic Logging
This feature allows you to create a basic logger that logs messages to the console. The logger is configured with a logging level and a format.
const winston = require('winston');
const logger = winston.createLogger({
level: 'info',
format: winston.format.json(),
transports: [
new winston.transports.Console()
]
});
logger.info('Hello, Winston!');File Transport
This feature allows you to log messages to a file. The logger is configured with a file transport that writes logs to 'combined.log'.
const winston = require('winston');
const logger = winston.createLogger({
level: 'info',
format: winston.format.json(),
transports: [
new winston.transports.File({ filename: 'combined.log' })
]
});
logger.info('Logging to a file!');Custom Formats
This feature allows you to create custom log formats. The logger is configured with a custom format that includes a timestamp and a custom message format.
const winston = require('winston');
const { combine, timestamp, printf } = winston.format;
const myFormat = printf(({ level, message, timestamp }) => {
return `${timestamp} [${level}]: ${message}`;
});
const logger = winston.createLogger({
format: combine(
timestamp(),
myFormat
),
transports: [
new winston.transports.Console()
]
});
logger.info('Custom format log message');Bunyan is another logging library for Node.js that provides a simple and fast JSON logging mechanism. It is similar to winston in terms of functionality but focuses more on JSON logging and has a different API design.
Pino is a fast and low-overhead logging library for Node.js. It is designed to be extremely performant and provides a simple API for logging. Pino is similar to winston but is optimized for speed and efficiency.
Log4js is a logging library inspired by the Java log4j library. It provides a flexible and configurable logging framework for Node.js applications. Log4js is similar to winston in terms of flexibility and configurability but has a different configuration style.
