Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

winston

A InfluxDB transport for winston.

Motivation

tldr;?: To break the winston codebase into small modules that work together.

The winston codebase has been growing significantly with contributions and other logging transports. This is awesome. However, taking a ton of additional dependencies just to do something simple like logging to the Console and a File is overkill.

Usage

  var winston = require('winston');
  
  /**
   * Requiring `winston-influxdb` will expose
   * `winston.transports.InfluxDB`
   */
  require('winston-influxdb').InfluxDB;
  
  winston.add(winston.transports.InfluxDB, options);

Caution: InfluxDB purpose is not properly to store logs but values and tags, then, with default configuration, message is not used by this transport. only meta.tags and meta.values are used.

You can change InfluxDB transport comportment by providing buildValues and buildTags options at transport startup.

The InfluxDB transport takes the following options. 'db' is required:

  • level: Level of messages that this transport should log, defaults to 'info'.
  • db: InfluxDB database name.
  • hosts: InfluxDB hosts array default: [{ host: 'localhost', port: 8086, protocol: 'http' }]
  • measurement: The name of the measurement you want to store log messages in, defaults to 'log'.
  • username: The username to use when logging into InfluxDB.
  • password: The password to use when logging into InfluxDB. If you don't supply a username and password it will not use InfluxDB authentication.
  • name: Transport instance identifier. Useful if you need to create multiple InfluxDB transports.
  • buildValues: a function (level, message, meta, callback) used to build values objects, default function use meta.values
  • buildTags: a function (level, message, meta, callback) used to build tags objects, default function use meta.tags

Installation

  $ npm install winston
  $ npm install winston-influxdb
