This log handler will send each entry with a log level at or above a configured threshold as a message to a configured Slack channel.

Installation

npm install --save @debugr/slack-handler

Usage

import { Logger, LogLevel } from '@debugr/core';
import { SlackLogHandler } from '@debugr/slack-handler';

const globalContext = {
  applicationName: 'example',
};

const logger = new Logger(globalContext, [
  new SlackLogHandler({
    threshold: LogLevel.FATAL,
    webhookUrl: 'your slack webhook url',
  }),
]);

logger.fatal('Something failed miserably!');

The SlackLogHandler constructor accepts a required options object with the following keys as the first argument:

| Option | Type | Default | Description | |-----------------|--------------------------------------------|---------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | webhookUrl | string | (required) | A Slack webhook URL; see the Slack API docs on how to obtain one. | | threshold | LogLevel, number | LogLevel.ERROR | The lowest level of entries which will be posted to the configured channel. Any entries below this level will be ignored. | | channel | string | | The Slack channel ID the message should be posted to. This only works with legacy Slack webhooks. | | username | string | | The slack username the message should be posted under. This only works with legacy Slack webhooks. | | iconUrl | string | | The URL of an icon to be used in place of the default icon. This only works with legacy Slack webhooks. | | iconEmoji | string | | An emoji code string to use in place of the default icon. This only works with legacy Slack webhooks. | | errorCallback | (err: Error) => void | (see description) | A callback which will be called when sending a message to Slack fails. The default callback will simply log the error into the console. | | bodyMapper | (entry: LogEntry) => Record<string, any> | (see description) | A callback mapping the log entry to payload to be sent to the configured webhook URL. At a minimum the payload must include a text key with a string content. |
