# Mobicoop V3 - Logger Service
Logging system for all services.
## Requirements
You need [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/engine/) and [Docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/).
A RabbitMQ instance is also required to receive messages from other services.
## Installation
Copy `.env.dist` to `.env` :
```bash
cp .env.dist .env
```
and modify it to suit your needs.
Then execute :
```bash
docker-compose up -d
```
The app runs automatically on the port defined in `SERVICE_PORT` of `.env` file (default : _5099_).
## Usage
The app subscribes to RabbitMQ queues in order to log messages. We use the routing key with the given format : <**service**>.<**action**>.<**level**>, with :
- **service** : the name of the service that has emitted the message
- **action** : the action that was at the origin of the message (one or more words separated by a dot)
- **level** : the severity (_log level_) of the message, as described in [RFC5424 syslog](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5424) :
- **emer** : Emergency: system is unusable
- **alert** : Alert: action must be taken immediately
- **crit** : Critical: critical conditions
- **error** : Error: error conditions
- **warning** : Warning: warning conditions
- **notice** : Notice: normal but significant condition
- **info** : Informational: informational messages
- **debug** : Debug: debug-level messages
Examples of valid routing keys :
- user.create.info
- user.create.crit
- user.update.warning
- auth.username.add.info
It is the responsibility of each service to set the routing key to the appropriate value.
To handle logs for a given service, a controller corresponding to the service must be set. In this controller, you must define a handler for each action and level. You must also define a unique RabbitMQ queue for this handler (this permits to use durable queues, allowing to keep logs in RabbitMQ even if the logger service is down).
## Test
```bash
# unit tests
docker exec v3-user sh -c "npm run test"
# test coverage
docker exec v3-user sh -c "npm run test:cov"
```
Note : you can run all npm commands directly _outside_ the container (see _scripts_ section of `package.json` for available commands), but you need NodeJS installed locally. We **strongly** advise to install [Node Version Manager](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) and use the latest LTS version of Node.
