@cumulus/logger

A logging library for use on the Cumulus project.

The @cumulus/logger library exports a Logger class, which generates JSON-formated log events.

Log events always have the following keys:

• level (string) - the priority level of the message
• message (string) - the message itself
• sender (string) - the resource that created the message
• timestamp (string) - an ISO-8601 timestamp

Log events may have the following options keys:

• executions (string)
• granules (string [stringified array of objects])
• parentArn (string)
• stackName (string)
• version (string)
• asyncOperationId (string)

Log events may also contain user-specified keys.

Example log event:

{
  "level": "info",
  "message": "hello world",
  "sender": "greetingFunction",
  "timestamp": "2018-10-19T19:12:47.501Z"
}

Install

npm install @cumulus/logger

Usage

const Logger = require('@cumulus/logger');

const log = new Logger({ sender: 'example' });

log.info('hello, world');
