  secretAccessKey: 'SECRET_KEY',

Configuration Parameters

buffer (defaults to true): It can be a boolean or an object describing its conditions.

This library uses by default an smart buffering approach. Messages are sent when one of the following conditions are meet:

  • X seconds after the last batch of messages sent. Default: 5 seconds.
  • X messages are queued waiting to be sent. Default: 10 messages.
  • a message has priority. Default: all messages do no have priority

Example:

new KinesisWritable({
  region: 'AWS_REGION',
  streamName: 'MyKinesisStream',
  partitionKey: 'foo',
  buffer: {
    timeout: 1, // Messages will be sent every second
    length: 100, // or when 100 messages are in the queue
    hasPriority: function (msg) { // or the message has a type > 40
      var entry = JSON.parse(msg);
      return entry.type > 40;
    }
  }
});

partitionKey can be either an string or a function that accepts a message and returns a string. By default it is a function that returns the current EPOCH (Date.now()). Example:

new KinesisWritable({
  region: 'AWS_REGION',
  streamName: 'MyKinesisStream',
  partitionKey: function (msg) {
    var entry = JSON.parse(msg);
    return entry.level + '|' + entry.name;
  }
});

streamName is the name of the Kinesis Stream.
