koa-logger2

Logger middleware for http://github.com/koajs. Inspired by morgan from expressjs and apache.

Usage

Simplest example that will print basic information to standard output:

var logger = require('koa-logger2');
app.use(logger().gen); // will log to standard output by default

More advanced usage which will output more apache-like combined log:

var logger = require('koa-logger2');

var log_middleware = logger('ip [day/month/year:time zone] "method url protocol/httpVer" status size "referer" "userAgent" duration ms custom[unpacked]');
log_middleware.setStream(fs.createWriteStream(path.join(__dirname, 'logs/2014-09.log'), { flags: 'a' }));

app.use(log_middleware.gen); // !! note there are no () after gen

As a result you will get lines like:

123.45.67.89 [12/Sep/2014:22:12:26 +0200] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 301 22 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Android; Mobile; rv:31.0) Gecko/31.0 Firefox/31.0" 0 ms -

Later at any time you can call setStream again in order to replace stream you're writing to.

API

Just call the only function which is being exported:

logger([ format = " day/month time ip "method url protocol/httpVer" status size "referer" "userAgent" duration ms " ])

This will create logger object which has two properties - setStream method and gen. Formatters currently implemented are:

| Formatter | Description (Example) | --------- | --------------------- | ip | IP address of the client | method | Request method (GET) | url | Request url (/) | status | Status code (200) | httpVer | Protocol version (1.1) | protocol | HTTP or HTTPS | size | Content-Length of response | referer | Referer header | userAgent | User-agent header | time | Current time in 24-hour format HH:MM:SS | day | Day of month 01-31 | month | Short month name (Sep) | year | Year 4 digits (2014) | zone | Timezone offset (+0200) | duration | Duration of processing this request | custom[your.field] | Basically access anything you want from koa (ctx) object

setStream( stream.Writable )

Use this function to replace output stream for the logger (for example for log rotation). Please keep in mind that actual writing to the stream happens "on the way back".

gen

Returns generator function which should be used as middleware in your koaApp. ** NOTE: There are NO brackets () at the end. **
