Logging

Logging

In case you encounter any issues, or if you just want more visibility and information about what Verrou is doing, you can plug in a custom logger when you create an instance of Verrou.

Your logger must comply with the following interface:

export interface Logger {
trace(msg: string | LogObject): void;
trace(obj: LogObject, msg: string): void;
debug(msg: string | LogObject): void;
debug(obj: LogObject, msg: string): void;
info(msg: string | LogObject): void;
info(obj: LogObject, msg: string): void;
warn(msg: string): void;
warn(obj: LogObject, msg: string): void;
error(msg: string): void;
error(obj: ErrorObject, msg: string): void;
fatal(msg: string): void;
fatal(obj: ErrorObject, msg: string): void;
child(childObj: LogObject): Logger;
}

A compatible logger is, for example, Pino, which is the de-facto logger to use for modern Node.js projects.

Next, when you create your Verrou instance, you can inject your logger. Example with Pino:

import { pino } from 'pino'
const logger = pino({
level: 'trace',
transport: { target: 'pino-pretty' }
})
const verrou = new Verrou({
// ...
logger,
})

Verrou will create a child logger with the label pkg: "verrou", allowing you to filter easily on your end.

If using the LockFactory API, you can also do the same :

import { pino } from 'pino'
import { LockFactory } from '@verrou/core'
const logger = pino({
level: 'trace',
transport: { target: 'pino-pretty' }
})
const lockFactory = new LockFactory(memoryStore(), { logger })
