Essentials

Development Formatting

The pino-pretty module can be used to format logs during development:

Transports & Log Processing

Because Node.js operates on a single-threaded event loop, it is strongly advised to handle tasks such as sending, alerting, reformatting, and all log processing in a separate process or thread.

In the context of Pino, these log handlers are referred to as "transports." We recommend running transports within a worker thread using the pino.transport API for optimal performance and reliability.

For more details see our Transports⇗ document.

Low overhead

Efficient use of resources for logging is crucial. Over time, log messages accumulate, which can cause throttling effects on applications—such as a decrease in requests per second.

In many cases, Pino is over 5x faster than alternatives.

See the Benchmarks document for comparisons.

Bundling support

Pino supports being bundled using tools like webpack or esbuild.

See Bundling document for more information.
