Pino is a very fast, low-overhead JSON logger for Node.js (and Bare/Pear runtimes), with child loggers, redaction, and worker-thread transports. Its companion pino-pretty formats log lines for human-readable development output.
Use cases
- add structured JSON logging to a Node.js service
- log with minimal performance overhead in production
- pretty-print logs during development
- attach contextual properties with child loggers
- redact sensitive fields from logs
- integrate logging with Express, Fastify, Koa, or Hapi
When to choose
- you need high-throughput, low-overhead logging in Node.js
- you want structured JSON logs for log aggregation pipelines
- you use Fastify or other Node web frameworks and want first-class logging
When to avoid
- you need human-readable logs by default without a prettifier transport
- you are not on Node.js or a compatible runtime
- you need built-in log shipping to external services without transports
