Settings

You can create your own settings file if you want. Create a JSON-formatted file and save it as log.json. You can also specify your own name / path by setting the LOG_SETTINGS environment variable.

Here are the available settings and the defaults:

dest

Default: process.out
Set to the name of your output file, or leave un-set if you want the logs to be sent to stdout.

logLevel

Default: 'INFO'
Set to DEBUG, INFO, WARN or ERROR, depending on the amount of information you want to log.

timestamp

Default: 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss'
We use Moment for the timestamp. Check their documentation for setting up your own custom timestamp format.
