Show HN: Timberlogs – Drop-in structured logging for TypeScript

13•enaboapps•3w ago
Hi HN! I built Timberlogs because I was tired of console.log in production and existing logging solutions requiring too much setup.

Timberlogs is a drop-in structured logging library for TypeScript:

    npm install timberlogs-client

    import { createTimberlogs } from "timberlogs-client";
    
    const timber = createTimberlogs({
      source: "my-app",
      environment: "production",
      apiKey: process.env.TIMBER_API_KEY,
    });
    
    timber.info("User signed in", { userId: "123" });
    timber.error("Payment failed", error);
Features: - Auto-batching with retries - Automatic redaction of sensitive data (passwords, tokens) - Full-text search across all your logs - Real-time dashboard - Flow tracking to link related logs

It's currently in beta and free to use. Would love feedback from the HN community.

I'm glad to see useful features like easily adding userId and sessionId to logs. That said, I wish it wasn't limited to just these properties. From my experience building enterprise SaaS, you need more metadata for proper filtering: tenantId, operation, and others. With Winston, I typically create child logger instances and pass them around to ensure all logs contain the right metadata, but that workflow is pretty annoying.

Quick question out of curiosity: why does the example include an API key when initializing the logger? I couldn't find an explanation on the GitHub page. Some people might be put off seeing that in the first example, thinking the logger requires a paid subscription.

this is so cool. I think so much of the logging Saas products are bloated. This looks much simpler. I'd like a python interface.. I've used papertrail and datadog for some of this in the past but dropped it due to cost (and bloat). Nice one.
willwade•3w ago
how did you redact the sensitive data? did you use a library for that?

Do you have a price range in mind?

Does this provide a transport plugin for Winston [1], Pino [2], etc.?

[2] https://github.com/pinojs/pino

PS: Your documentation search does not work.

Not only that, libs like pino don't even support spanning, something that's pretty important for how I use logging. Winston has been my favorite so far.

Anyway, this is just a SaaS that claims they offer a "drop-in" library, which it does not. The repo is also Claude-generated, so I'm out.

Website is also very broken, and the docs require a log-in.
