first winston , winstond different packages. can check this blog post difference.

you might need whip-up own http transport winston (if want utilize winston). can work specific endpoint protocol.

you can create custom winston transport specified here. can utilize request send log info http endpoint.

good luck.

web transport

i don't believe winston.transports.http exists think you're looking this:

new winston.transports.webhook({ 'host': 'localhost', 'port': 8080, 'path': '/collectdata' })

as shown in this example.

winstond

my mistake, it have winston.transports.http you'll need winstond.

you can check this example utilize winstond http daemon. send http logs it.

so this:

new winston.transports.http({ host: 'localhost', port: 8080})

should pointing winstond daemon like:

var winstond = require('winstond'); var http = winstond.http.createserver({ services: ['collect', 'query', 'stream'], port: 8080 }); http.add(winstond.transports.console, {}); http.listen();
