1001-Logger

1001-Logger is a customizable logging library built on top of Winston with support for CLS-Hooked for correlation IDs. This library is designed for use across multiple TypeScript projects, providing structured logging with mandatory and optional metadata fields for 1001tv services.

Features

• Structured Logging: Logs are formatted in JSON, making them easy to parse and analyze using log aggregation tools like AWS CloudWatch.

• Correlation IDs: Automatically injects correlation IDs into logs from CLS-Hooked, ensuring that all logs from a single request are grouped together and making it easy to trace requests across distributed.

• Customizable Log Levels: Supports custom log levels (error, warn, info).

Metadata

1001-Logger requires certain fields if additional metadata is included in the log message. :

layer (mandatory): Indicates the layer where the log is generated (e.g., 'main', 'service', 'controller', 'repository', 'middleware', 'other'). function (mandatory): The name of the function where the log is printed. Any additional fields can be included as optional metadata (e.g., userId, errorCode).

Usage

1- Basic Setup Import the logger into your project:

import { logInfo, logError } from '1001-logger';

2- Logging Examples

Info Logging

logInfo('This is an informational message');

// Or
logInfo('This is an informational message', {
  layer: 'service', // Mandatory metadata
  function: 'fetchData', // Mandatory metadata
  userId: '1234' // Optional metadata
});

Warn Logging

logWarn('This is a warning message');

// Or
logWarn('This is a warning message', {
  layer: 'controller', // Mandatory
    function: 'handleRequest', // Mandatory metadata
    userId: '5678' // Optional metadata
});

Error Logging

logError('This is an error message');

// Or
logError('This is an error message', {
  layer: 'controller', // Mandatory metadata
  function: 'handleRequest', // Mandatory metadata
  errorCode: 'ERR123', // Optional metadata
  userId: '5678' // Optional metadata
});

Correlation IDs

The logger automatically injects a correlationId into every log message if it is available in the CLS-Hooked namespace (auth-middleware-namespace). This is useful for tracking a single request across various services and layers.

Example:

// Ensure a correlation ID is set up earlier in the middleware or service
import { Request, Response, NextFunction } from 'express';
import { createNamespace } from 'cls-hooked';

const session = createNamespace('auth-middleware-namespace');

export function storeCorrelationIdMiddleware(req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) {
    session.run(() => {
        session.set('correlationId', req.headers['x-correlation-id']);
        next();
    });
}
