log2amqp

Log JSON data to AMQP.

Purpose

Use this for data dumps to AMQP.

Usage

const config = {
  source: 'my-source',
  amqp: { url: 'amqp://user:pw@myserver/blah', exchange: 'myexchange', routingKey: 'keyToRouteTo',
  schemaVersion: 3
 }
};
const AMQPLogger = require('log2amqp');
const logger = new AMQPLogger(config);
payload = { this: 'thing'};
logger.log('kind', payload);
logger.log('kind2', 'chris');
logger.flush({ meta: {/* ... */} }).then(() => {
  // [{ kind: payload }, { kind2: 'chris' }] is flushed to amqp routingKey (schemaVersion === 2)
  // OR
  /* 
  [
    { type: 'kind',
     data: 'payload'
     }, 
    {
      type: 'kind2',
      data: 'chris'
    }
  ] is flushed to amqp routingKey (schemaVersion === 3)
  */
});

meta defines an object you want to apply to the whole logger session. It will be included at the top level in the logged payload (same level as logs). You may want to do this so you can e.g. easily index certain fields in the JSON payload (if you are writing from the queue to a DB table) or just if there are fields that apply across the whole session the you want to normalise for any reason.
