How to use Winston in several modules?

Question

I have several modules - let\'s say server.js, module1.js,...,moduleN.js.

I would like define the log file in my server.js:

winston.add(winston.trans         


        

Answer 1

I am working on Winston 3.0.0 right now. And it seems the way to configure the default logger has changed a little bit. The way that works for me is folloing:

log.js// the setting for global logger

const winston= require('winston');

winston.configure({
  level:"debug",
  format: winston.format.combine(
    winston.format.colorize(),
    winston.format.simple()
  ),
  transports: [
    new winston.transports.Console()
  ]
});

The other part is the same. In the beginning of you application, require('log.js'), and also require ('winston'), While in all other files, simply require('winston')

.
