API

pine([name] [,options])

• name (optional, String) - If not provided, defaults to file path relative to parent package.
• options (optional, Object) - Same options as pine.configure. When provided will create logger with provided settings, using configured global settings as defaults.

Invoke pine directly to get a logger instance. The API of the logger is determined by the configured levels, which defaults to npm levels: silly, debug, verbose, info, warn, error. Additionally, there is a log method which accepts the desired level as it's first argument. Each method also supports util.format-like string interpolation.

var log = pine();
log.silly('Uptime: %d days', 10);
log.debug('Helpful information');
log.verbose('More information');
log.info('Did you know...');
log.warn('Well, actually...');
log.error('Iceberg!');

pine.configure(options);

• options - The default options which will be used for all loggers. The options object supports the following optional keys:
  • basedir - The root directory against which relative paths are calculated. Defaults to root of calling module.
  • levels - The winston levels to use. Defaults to npm levels.
  • colors - The colors to use. Defaults to npm colors. whether the client should reject a response from a server with invalid certificates. This cannot be set at the same time as the agent option is set.
  • transports - The transports to use, mapping the transport name to settings. To use external or custom transports see the modules config options.
  • modules - Describe, for registration, the modules which implement the required custom transport.
  • exceptionHandlers - Transports to be used for logging exceptions. An object mapping the transport name to settings.

Set global logging settings, using built-in settings as defaults.
