Upgrading to [email protected]

This document is a work in progress. Having trouble upgrading to [email protected]{X}? Open an issue so we can improve this guide!

Major breaking changes

  • winston.Logger has been replaced with winston.createLogger.
  • winston.setLevels has been removed. Levels are frozen at the time of Logger creation.
  • Setting the level on the default winston logger no longer sets the level on the transports associated with the default winston logger.

Formatting options

  • Default output format is now formats.json().

winston.Logger

  • filters: Use a custom format.
  • rewriters: Use a custom format.

winston.transports.{File,Console,Http}

  • stringify: Use a custom format.
  • formatter: Use a custom format.
  • json: Use formats.json().
  • raw: Use formats.json().
  • prettyPrint: Use formats.prettyPrint() or a custom format.
  • colorize: Use formats.colorize().
  • timestamp: Use formats.timestamp().
  • logstash: Use formats.logstash().
  • align: Use formats.align().
  • showLevel: Use a custom format.

winston.Logger

  • winston.Logger will no longer respond with an error when logging with no transports
  • winston.Logger will no longer respond with an error if the same transports are added twice.
  • Logger.prototype.stream
    • options.transport is removed. Use the transport instance on the logger directly.
  • Logger.prototype.query
    • options.transport is removed. Use the transport instance on the logger directly.

Exceptions & exception handling

  • winston.exceptions has been removed. Use:
const exceptions = winston.exceptionHandler();
  • humanReadableUnhandledException is now the default exception format.
  • .unhandleExceptions() will no longer modify transports state, merely just add / remove the process.on('uncaughtException') handler.
    • Call close on any explicit exceptionHandlers.
    • Set handleExceptions = false on all transports.

Transports

  • winston.transports.Memory was removed. Use any Node.js stream.Writeable with a large highWaterMark instance instead.
  • When writing transports use winston-transport instead of winston.Transport

winston.Container and winston.loggers

  • winston.Container instances no longer have default Console transports
  • winston.Container.prototype.add no longer does crazy options parsing. Implementation inspired by segmentio/winston-logger

Minor breaking changes

  • winston.hash was removed.
  • winston.common.pad was removed.
  • winston.common.serialized was removed (use winston-compat).
  • winston.common.log was removed (use winston-compat).

New dependencies

  • winston-transport
  • abstract-winston-transport
  • logform
