A winston logstash transport to UDP protocol in Typescript. Rewrite from https://github.com/liuyanjie/winston-logstash-transport

Dependencies

• logform: "^2.1.2",
• winston: "^3.2.1",
• winston-transport: "^4.3.0"

Installation

• Install to your project using npm -i winston-logstash-ts or yarn add winston-logstash-ts

Example

• Manually create logstash transport, then add to an existing winston instance

import { LogstashTransport } from "winston-logstash-ts"
.
.
const logstash = new LogstashTransport({
    host: "logstash.hostname.or.ip",
    port: 11200,
    protocol: "udp", //default is udp, support tcp connection as alternative
    format: logform.format.combine(
        logform.format.timestamp(),
        logform.format.logstash(),
    )
});
winston.add(logstash);
.
.

• Use LogstashTransport.createLogger() static method to create winston logger with logstash transport

import { LogstashTransport } from "winston-logstash-ts"
.
.
const logger = LogstashTransport.createLogger("<APP_NAME>", {
    host: "logstash.hostname.or.ip",
    port: 11200,
    protocol: "udp", //default is udp, support tcp connection as alternative
    format: logform.format.combine(
        logform.format.timestamp(),
        logform.format.logstash(),
    )
});

The option type is LogstashOption (https://github.com/HuskyMoonMoon/winston-logstash-ts/blob/master/src/LogstashOption.ts), which is extended from winston.LoggerOption
