async-logging-node

This module is trying to solve the discrepancy between the async model & the common synchronous logging model

  • Logging types: heartbeat, atomic, transaction
  • Logging params: type, level, msg, uuid, event, parent
  • Transaction: this is the key structure we're trying to restore from async events model
  • Logging proxy: part of this module builds a proxy service which is a websocket server accepting log payload as message pack
  • Logging client: the other part is a client which runs in the application runtime, connecting to websocket, and transferring the log event over
  • MonApp: optional monitoring app which can generate heartbeat logs

API

Function Description
LogCluster
require('log-cluster').LogCluster importing constructor
new LogCluster(options, emitter) constructor accepts two parameters;
LogBuffer
require('log-buffer').LogBuffer importing constructor
new LogBuffer(emitter,mapper) constructor accepts two parameters, emitter which emits 'log' events and optional mapper which can map log properties to correct format
LogListener
require('log-listener').LogListener importing constructor

Installation

npm install async-logging

Usage

Start a proxy service

var LogCluster = require("log-cluster.js").LogCluster,
    CalPublisher = require("cal-publisher.js").CalPublisher;
new LogCluster({LogPublisher:CalPublisher});

Provide a Log Publisher

var CalPublisher = exports.CalPublisher = function(emitter, calMapper, calSender, calCallback){
    //a specific publisher, could be as simple as log file appender
}

Start a client

new require("log-client").LogClient({url:""}); //url must be given

Example

Look at lib/log-server.js. You can start it by typing following commands from the root of the project

npm install
node lib/log-server.js
