@relaycorp/pino-cloud

This library generates Pino configuration to format log entries in such a way that they can be properly ingested by cloud logging services such as those on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

At this point, only GCP's Cloud Logging and Error Reporting services are supported, but we'd welcome any PRs to support additional targets, such as Elastic Search or AWS CloudWatch Logs.

Releases are automatically pushed to NPM. For example, to get the latest release, run:

npm install @relaycorp/pino-cloud

This library simply returns a configuration object for Pino, which you augment before passing to Pino. For example:

import { getPinoOptions } from '@relaycorp/pino-cloud';

const LOGGER = pino({
...getPinoOptions(process.ENV.LOGGING_TARGET, {
name: 'your-app-name',
version: '1.0.2',
}),
level: 'debug',
});

If the environment variable LOGGING_TARGET is unset, an empty object is returned.

error and fatal logs are augmented to include Error Reporting fields, like the name and version of your app.

Additionally, if the log contains an err field that is an instance of Error, its stack trace will be added to the field stack_trace -- Where Error Reporting expects to find it.

The API documentation can be found on docs.relaycorp.tech.
