Logger Generator
Structured logging is important but setting it up right takes time. This tool generates production-ready logging config for pino, winston, or bunyan.
One command. Zero config. Just works.
Quick Start
npx ai-logger pino
What It Does
- Generates logging setup for popular libraries
- Includes request tracking and correlation IDs
- Sets up log rotation and formatting
- Pretty output for development, JSON for production
Usage Examples
# Pino setup
npx ai-logger pino
# Winston to file
npx ai-logger winston -o lib/logger.ts
# Edge runtime compatible
npx ai-logger bunyan -e edge
Best Practices
- Use structured logs - JSON is searchable
- Include request IDs - trace requests across services
- Log at the right level - don't info log everything
- Redact sensitive data - never log passwords or tokens
When to Use This
- Starting a new project with proper logging
- Replacing console.log with real logging
- Setting up log aggregation
- Debugging production issues
