Package Exports

logfmt

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (logfmt) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

node-logfmt

install

npm install logfmt

use

straight up

var logfmt = require('logfmt');

logfmt.parse("foo=bar a=14 baz=\"hello kitty\" cool%story=bro f %^asdf code=H12")
//=>{ "foo": "bar", "a": 14, "baz": "hello kitty", "cool%story": "bro", "f": true, "%^asdf": true, "code" : "H12" }

express middleware

var logfmt   = require('logfmt').body_parser;

app.use(logfmt());

// req.body is now an array of objects
app.post('/logs', function(req, res){

  console.log('BODY: ' + JSON.stringify(req.body));

  req.body.forEach(function(data){
    console.log(data);
  });

  res.send('OK');
})

app.listen(3000)

test it:

curl -X POST --header 'Content-Type: application/logplex-1' -d "foo=bar a=14 baz=\"hello kitty\" cool%story=bro f %^asdf" http://localhost:3000/logs

command line

echo "foo=bar a=14 baz=\"hello kitty\" cool%story=bro f %^asdf" | logfmt
{ "foo": "bar", "a": 14, "baz": "hello kitty", "cool%story": "bro", "f": true, "%^asdf": true }

caveats

I use a regex and haven't optimized much for performance yet.
