Description: | This module is a multiple transport asynchronous logging library for Node.js.
Winston is designed to be a simple and universal logging library with support
for multiple transports. A transport is essentially a storage device for your
logs. Each instance of a winston logger can have multiple transports
configured at different levels. For example, one may want error logs to be
stored in a persistent remote location (like a database), but all logs output
to the console or a local file.
There also seemed to be a lot of logging libraries out there that coupled
their implementation of logging (ie, how the logs are stored/indexed) to the
API that they exposed to the programmer. This library aims to decouple those
parts of the process to make it more flexible and extensible. |
