winston daily logger

This is a customization of winston logger which does the following:

• Creates log files daily app-logs-20-10-2018.log

• Uploads the old log files to S3 for archival.

• Deletes old log files weekly from disk.

How to use?

• Install all the required packages listed in package.json.

npm install --save winston;
npm install --save winston-daily-rotate-file;
npm install --save json-stringify-safe;
npm install --save dotenv;
npm install --save aws-sdk;

• Copy the utils, config and logs folder to your project root.

• Create a .env file with all the values as listed in .env.example.

• In your app.js/index.js/main.js file, add these lines to configure root folder and load .env file

global.__basedir = __dirname; // set root directory
require('dotenv').config(); // load .env file

• Now, just require the logger anywhere you want to use it.

const logger = require('./config/logger/index');

logger.error("error");
logger.warn("warning");
logger.info("info");
logger.debug("debug");

As an addition, if you would like to contribute, checkout the gzip-logs branch. On this branch, I'm trying to gzip the log files and upload the .gz files to s3 and delete them as soon as they are uploaded. Its a work in progress.
