How to log all requests made to a hapi server without using a logging library?
So I found a way:
server.events.on('response', function (request) {
console.log(request.info.remoteAddress + ': ' + request.method.toUpperCase() + ' ' + request.path + ' --> ' + request.response.statusCode);
});
The log then looks like this:
127.0.0.1: GET /myEndpoint/1324134?foo=bar --> 200
127.0.0.1: GET /sgsdfgsdrh --> 404

The easiest would be to use the good
module with one of the good
reporters, for example good-file
. Here is an example how to use it:
var Hapi = require('hapi');
var Good = require('good');
var server = new Hapi.Server();
server.connection({ port: 8080 });
server.route({
method: 'GET',
path: '/',
handler: function (request, reply) {
reply('Hello, world!');
}
});
server.route({
method: 'GET',
path: '/{name}',
handler: function (request, reply) {
reply('Hello, ' + encodeURIComponent(request.params.name) + '!');
}
});
server.register({
register: Good,
options: {
reporters: [{
reporter: require('good-file'),
events: {
response: '*',
log: '*'
},
config: {
path: '/var/log/hapi',
rotate: 'daily'
}
}]
}
}, function (err) {
if (err) {
throw err; // something bad happened loading the plugin
}
server.start(function () {
server.log('info', 'Server running at: ' + server.info.uri);
});
});
In Hapi.js version above v17, please make the below changes to make it work:
server.events.on('response', function (request) {
// you can use request.log or server.log it's depends
server.log(request.info.remoteAddress + ': ' + request.method.toUpperCase() + ' ' + request.url.path + ' --> ' + request.response.statusCode);
});
The log will be:
127.0.0.1: GET /todo --> 200
