Google Cloud Logging Plugin

The Google Cloud Log plugin enables pushing logs to your Google Cloud project.

Enterprise Feature

Custom logging is available as an add-on as part of an enterprise plan. If you would like to purchase this feature, please contact us at sales@zuplo.com or reach out to your account manager.

Most enterprise features can be used in a trial mode for a limited time. Feel free to use enterprise features for development and testing purposes.

Setup

Before you can use this plugin, you will need to create a GCP Service account that grants your Zuplo API to write logs. Create a new GCP Service account and give it the Logs Writer (roles/logging.logWriter) permission. Create a key for the service account in JSON format.

After you have downloaded the JSON formatted service account, save it as a secret environment variable in your Zuplo project.

modules/zuplo.runtime.ts
import {
  RuntimeExtensions,
  GoogleCloudLoggingPlugin,
  environment,
} from "@zuplo/runtime";

export function runtimeInit(runtime: RuntimeExtensions) {
  runtime.addPlugin(
    new GoogleCloudLoggingPlugin({
      logName: "projects/my-project/logs/my-api",
      serviceAccountJson: environment.GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT,
      fields: {
        field1: "value1",
        field2: "value2",
      },
    }),
  );
}
ts

Configuration Options

The GoogleCloudLoggingPlugin constructor accepts an options object with the following properties:

  • serviceAccountJson - (required) The JSON content of your Google Cloud service account key
  • logName - (required) The name of the log in Google Cloud Logging (e.g., projects/my-project/logs/my-api)
  • fields - (optional) Custom fields to include in each log entry. Can contain string, number, or boolean values

Custom Fields

Any custom fields you want to include in the log entry can be added to the fields property. These values will be appended to every log entry.

Default Fields

Every log entry will have a timestamp and a jsonPayload object. The value of the jsonPayload contains the text or objects passed into the log.

Default fields in the jsonPayload are:

  • severity - The log level (e.g., ERROR, INFO, DEBUG, WARN)
  • requestId - The UUID of the request (the value of the zp-rid header)
  • environmentType - Where the Zuplo API is running. Values are edge, working-copy, or local
  • environmentStage - The environment stage: working-copy, preview, or production
  • atomicCounter - An atomic counter used to order logs with identical timestamps
  • environment - The environment name of the Zuplo API
  • rayId - The network provider identifier (e.g., Cloudflare Ray ID) of the request
