Support nestjs-pino

[GauBen]

Hey there!

Could you please add support for nestjs-pino?

It works nicely out of the box. I use it with -m '{"ns":"context"}' to print the context, but it looks weird on http requests that have no context:

Maybe add a default [HTTP] context (in another color) for http requests?

---

Edit: logs have a property req.id that allows correlating logs to requests, it might be interesting to display it

Hi

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you regarding this issue. Not sure if still relevant but I believe adding HTTP to the ns property by default would be making too many assumptions about how the logger is going to be used. If a different user doesn't use the ns property then they would just get the reverse issue that you're seeing. Instead, in this case I believe setting the ns property of the log object could rather be configured as part of setting up pino-http. You might, for instance, configure pino-http with a child logger defaulting the ns property to HTTP.

const httpLogger = require('pino-http')({
  logger: parentLogger.child({ns: 'HTTP'})
})

Similarly, you might want to consider configuring the rename or duplication of context to ns using something like the formatters config of pino.

I like your idea about displaying the req.id property! Maybe something like the below where 1234 is the request id? 🤔

17:42:59 Info: GET(1234) /ping 200 22ms

I'll close this issue since it was opened a long time ago and might not be relevant anymore, but feel free to open it again if you'd like to continue the discussion 👍
