NodeJS: How to log all incoming server requests to mongodb?

Question

We've setup a NodeJS server for our API, and are currently logging all incoming requests to a file using morgan. In addition to the file-logging, we would also like to store the requests in mongodb (preferably without having to use mongoose). Any help would be greatly appreciated :) thanks!

Answer 1

You can use mongoose-morgan or just integrate morgan with winston and winston-mongodb .

const morgan = require('morgan');
const winston = require('winston');
require('winston-mongodb');

app.user(morgan('combined', {stream: new winston.transports.MongoDB({db: /*mongodb-uri*/}).stream()}));

You can see transport options here
