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
