Logstash配置

• 你需要知道logstash服务的IP和端口
• 你需要知道写日志是通过什么协议：TCP，还是UDP

在我向logstash写日志之前，已经有同事向Logstash写过日志了。当时只是知道logstash的ip和端口，没有搞清楚协议，所以没有写进去。

logger

// filename: /logs/logger.js

var log4js = require('log4js')

// 获取配置文件中logstash的IP地址和端口
var {logHost, logPort} = require('../config/index.js') 

if (!logHost || !logPort) {
  console.log('ERROR not config logstash_host or logstash_port')
}

log4js.configure({
  appenders: {
    console: { type: 'console' },
    logstash: {
      // 因为我们的logstash暴露的是tcp写日志的端口，所以我用了log4js-logstash-tcp，
      // 这个需要安装 https://github.com/Aigent/log4js-logstash-tcp
      // 如果你的logstash使用UDP的，参考 https://github.com/log4js-node/logstashUDP
      type: 'log4js-logstash-tcp', 
      host: logHost,
      port: parseInt(logPort)
    }
  },
  categories: {
    default: { appenders: ['logstash'], level: 'debug' }
  }
})

const logger = log4js.getLogger('default')

app.js

// filename: /app.js
var express = require('express')
var compression = require('compression')
var path = require('path')
var log4js = require('log4js')
var proxyMiddleware = require('http-proxy-middleware')
var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser')

var logger = require('./logs/logger.js') // 这了引用了上面的logger
var {proxyTable, maxAge} = require('./config/index.js')

...
Object.keys(proxyTable).forEach(function (context) {
  if (!proxyTable[context].ws) {
    // 这里我是用的反向代理，当代理响应时，开始写日志
    proxyTable[context].onProxyRes = writeLog
  }
  app.use(proxyMiddleware(context, proxyTable[context]))
})
...

// 主要谢日日志的就是这里
function writeLog (proxyRes, req, res) {
  var baseLog = `${req.method} ${proxyRes.statusCode} ${req.cookies.email} ${req.url}`
  var msgObj = {
    method: req.method,
    statusCode: proxyRes.statusCode,
    url: req.url,
    email: req.cookies.email || '',
    sessionId: req.cookies.sessionId || '',
    instanceId: 'newTm',
    nodeName: 'newTm'
  }

  if (proxyRes.statusCode < 400) {
    logger.info(baseLog, msgObj)
  } else {
    logger.error(baseLog, msgObj)
  }
}

在kibana中输入关键词：nodeName:newTm
可以搜到如下的记录

最佳实践

不要在多个文件中都require一个log4js, 应当一个应用公用用一个log4js，否则就会可能导致无法将日志写到logstash。(我曾经遇到这个问题, 纠结了好久。)

如下所示，其他向写日志的的，只需要引用该文件就可以。

// filename: logstash.js
var log4js = require('log4js')
var {logstash} = require('../config/default.js')
var host = logstash.split(':')[0]
var port = parseInt(logstash.split(':')[1])

log4js.configure({
  appenders: {
    console: { type: 'console' },
    logstash: {
      type: 'log4js-logstash-tcp',
      host,
      port,
      fields: {
        instanceId: process.env.HOSTNAME || 'appName',
        appName: 'appName'
      }
    }
  },
  categories: {
    default: { appenders: ['logstash', 'console'], level: 'debug' }
  }
})

module.exports = log4js.getLogger('default')

const log = require('./logstash.js')


router.get('/api', (req, res, next) => {
    log.info('message coming')
})

注意

• 要注意写日志是用UDP还是TCP
• 如果要用，Logstash (UDP and HTTP) appender，该功能已经被移动到 https://github.com/log4js-nod… 最好要单独安装
