winston-datadog-formatter

Formatting Winston logging for DataDog processing and storage

Installation

npm install --save winston-datadog-udp-transport

Example

The following example configures the Winston logger to use the DataDog formatter, and UDP transport to ship logs to DataDog via a local installation of the DataDog agent with UDP enabled. For more information on using UDP log shipping with the DataDog agent see winston-datadog-udp-transport

const winston = require('winston');
const DatadogTransport = require('datadog-transport');
const datadogFormatter = require('datadog-formatter');
 
const logger = winston.createLogger({
    level: 'verbose',
    transports: [
        // Use the default transport configuration for a local
        // install of the DD agent
        new DatadogTransport({ 
            format: datadogFormatter.format(),
        })
    ]
});
