API

import{logger}from'@tinyhttp/logger'

logger(options)

Returns the middleware for logging HTTP requests.

Options

• methods: a list of HTTP methods to log. Defaults to http's METHODS.
• timestamp.format: timestamp format. It is consumed by the dayjs library. If a string is specified, it is used as a format; otherwise just enabled.
• output.callback: a function that receives the log generated by the logger.
• output.color: a property that determines whether the logger will generate a message with color. Useful for logging into the console; disable if logging into a file or other colorless environments.
• emoji: enable emojis for HTTP status codes. See http-status-emojis for a full list.
• ip: log IP address.

Example

import{App}from'@tinyhttp/app'import{logger}from'@tinyhttp/logger'newApp().use(logger({methods: ['GET','POST'],timestamp: {format: 'HH:mm:ss'},output: {callback: console.log,color: false}})).get('/',(req,res)=>res.send('Hello world')).post('/',(req,res)=>res.send('Sent POST')).listen(3000)

To Log a level, use the enum LogLevel

import{App}from'@tinyhttp/app'import{logger,LogLevel}from'@tinyhttp/logger'newApp().use(logger({methods: ['GET','POST'],timestamp: {format: 'HH:mm:ss'},output: {callback: console.log,color: false,level: LogLevel.warn}})).get('/',(req,res)=>res.send('Hello world')).listen(3000)

This also includes a simple file logger. To stream to a file, simply supply the filename in the options. Supported file names innclude ./file.log or ./log/tiny.log

import{App}from'@tinyhttp/app'import{logger}from'@tinyhttp/logger'newApp().use(logger({methods: ['GET','POST'],timestamp: {format: 'HH:mm:ss'},output: {callback: console.log,color: false,filename: './log/tiny.log'}})).get('/',(req,res)=>res.send('Hello world')).listen(3000)
