Does winston provide a way to write logs to different file when the date is changed?
e.g. errorLogs_10_04_2016.log, errorLogs_11_04_2016.log, errorLogs_12_04_2016.log
I need to export these logs, provide admin a way to export logs to a specific date.
Update:
As suggested by krakig, I tried using DailyRotateFile
transport.
var winston = require('winston');
var logger = new (winston.Logger)({
transports: [
new (winston.transports.DailyRotateFile)({
filename: 'logs.log',
datePattern:'_dd-MM-yyyy'
})
]
});
But I'm getting winston.transports.DailyRotateFile is not a function
error.
My winston version is 2.2.0
The feature was added a while ago :
winston.add(winston.transports.DailyRotateFile, {
filename: './logs/my.log',
datePattern: '.dd-MM-yyyy'
});
EDIT :
I didn't mention it, but the package is independant. You have to get it from npm :
winston.transports.DailyRotateFile = require('winston-daily-rotate-file');
