v7.0.0
New Features
pino.transport()
Create a a stream that routes logs to a worker thread that
wraps around a Pino Transport.
const pino = require('pino')
const transport = pino.transport({
target: 'some-transport',
options: { some: 'options for', the: 'transport' }
})
pino(transport)
Multiple transports may also be defined, and specific levels can be logged to each transport:
const pino = require('pino')
const transports = pino.transport({
targets: [{
level: 'info',
target: 'pino-pretty'
}, {
level: 'trace',
target: 'pino/file',
options: { destination: '/path/to/store/logs' }
}]
})
pino(transports)
Transports may alternatively be arranged in a pipeline:
const logger = pino({
transport: {
pipeline: [{
target: './my-transform.js'
}, {
// Use target: 'pino/file' to write to stdout
// without any change.
target: 'pino-pretty'
}]
}
})
logger.info('hello world')
For more on transports, how they work, and how to create them see the Transports documentation
.
The internal implementation is based on thread-stream
⇗.
`pino.multistream()``
We have embedded a part of pino-multi-stream
into pino itself, so you would be able to write to multiple streams from the same pino instance:
var fs = require('fs')
var pino = require('pino')
var streams = [
{stream: fs.createWriteStream('/tmp/info.stream.out')},
{level: 'debug', stream: fs.createWriteStream('/tmp/debug.stream.out')},
{level: 'fatal', stream: fs.createWriteStream('/tmp/fatal.stream.out')}
]
var log = pino({
level: 'debug' // this MUST be set at the lowest level of all the destinations
}, pino.multistream(streams))
log.debug('this will be written to /tmp/debug.stream.out')
log.info('this will be written to /tmp/debug.stream.out and /tmp/info.stream.out')
log.fatal('this will be written to /tmp/debug.stream.out, /tmp/info.stream.out and /tmp/fatal.stream.out')
This differs from pino.transport()
as all the streams will be executed within the main thread, i.e. the one that created the pino instance.
Added TypeScript types
Types have been added to the the project, so you can now use pino with TypeScript without downloading any additional types: you should remove @types/pino
from your project. The following typescript example would now work correctly:
import { pino } from "pino";
const log = pino();
log.info("hello world");
log.error("this is at error level");
log.info("the answer is %d", 42);
log.info({ obj: 42 }, "hello world");
log.info({ obj: 42, b: 2 }, "hello world");
log. info({ obj: { aa: "bbb" } }, "another");
Updated sonic-boom
sonic-boom, our fs.createWriteStream()
replacement has become safer to use in v2.x.
A few selected changes:
- Atomic sync writes pinojs/sonic-boom#102
- Add retryEAGAIN callback function pinojs/sonic-boom#95
- Fix writing deadlock pinojs/sonic-boom#104
- flush() with no buffered data should work pinojs/sonic-boom#105
Solved "exit" problem for sync: false
destinations and transports
Thanks to the addition of WeakRef
and FinalizationRegistry
to JavaScript (available in Node.js v14+) we can automatically flush asynchronous streams when the processes exits without leaking memory.

Breaking Changes
Deprecation of prettyPrint
option
The prettyPrint
option has been deprecated in favor of the new transport system.
Dropped Node.js v10.x
Node.js v10 went out of LTS/Maintenance in April 2021.
We are dropping support.
Apply err
serializer everywhere
We will start applying the err
serializer also to Error
objects passed in as first argument to log methods, e.g. log.info(new Error('kaboom'))
will pass through the serializer.
Removal of extreme mode
Extreme mode has been deprecated in previous release cycle and it has now been removed.
