Requires Node.js 10.x or later, and Axios http client. No other dependencies to conflict with your app.
npm install resurfaceio-logger --save
After installing the module, add a HttpLoggerForExpress instance to your app, after
any body parsers in use.
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
// add body parsers
const resurfaceio = require('resurfaceio-logger');
resurfaceio.HttpLoggerForExpress.add(app, {
url: 'https://localhost:7701/message',
rules: 'include debug'
});
// define routesAfter installing the module, add a HttpLoggerForKoa instance to your app, after
any body parsers in use.
const Koa = require('koa');
const app = new Koa();
// add body parsers
const resurfaceio = require('resurfaceio-logger');
resurfaceio.HttpLoggerForKoa.add(app, {
url: 'https://localhost:7701/message',
rules: 'include debug'
});After installing the module, add a HttpLoggerForExpress instance before calling applyMiddleware.
const app = express();
const resurfaceio = require('resurfaceio-logger');
resurfaceio.HttpLoggerForExpress.add(app, {
url: 'https://localhost:7701/message',
rules: 'include debug'
});
const server = new ApolloServer({ ... });
server.applyMiddleware({ app });After installing the module, create a logger and call it from the routes of interest.
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const resurfaceio = require('resurfaceio-logger');
const logger = new resurfaceio.HttpLogger({
url: 'https://localhost:7701/message',
rules: 'include debug'
});
app.get('/', function (request, response) {
response.render('pages/index', function (e, html) {
response.status(200).send(html);
resurfaceio.HttpMessage.send(logger, request, response, html);
});
});Loggers can be directly integrated into your application using our API. This requires the most effort compared with the options described above, but also offers the greatest flexibility and control.
Loggers always have an active set of rules that control what data is logged
and how sensitive data is masked. All of the examples above apply a predefined set of rules (include debug),
but logging rules are easily customized to meet the needs of any application.
