Error: Timestamp is null

[gregorskii]

Hi there,

I am seeing this error when running in AWS:

InvalidParameterException: 1 validation error detected: Value null at 'logEvents.1.member.timestamp' failed to satisfy constraint: Member must not be null

I have configured the logger like so:

module.exports = function() {

    var bunyan = require('bunyan'),
        Bunyan2Loggly = require('bunyan-loggly').Bunyan2Loggly,
        bformat = require('bunyan-format'),
        formatOut = bformat({ outputMode: 'short' }),
        log
    ;

    if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'local') {
        log = bunyan.createLogger({'name': 'LOCAL', stream: formatOut});
    } else {
        log = bunyan.createLogger({
            name: process.env.LOGGLY_ALIAS.replace('.%s', ''),
            streams: [
                {
                    level: 'error',
                    type: 'raw',
                    stream: new Bunyan2Loggly({
                        token: process.env.LOGGLY_TOKEN,
                        subdomain: process.env.LOGGLY_SUBDOMAIN
                    })
                },
                {
                    level: 'fatal',
                    type: 'raw',
                    stream: require('bunyan-cloudwatch')({
                        logGroupName: process.env.OPSGENIE_CW_GROUP,
                        logStreamName: 'service-api-ops-cloudwatch-stream',
                        cloudWatchLogsOptions: {
                            accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_KEY,
                            secretAccessKey: process.env.AWS_SECRET,
                            region: process.env.AWS_REGION
                        }
                    })
                }
            ]
        });
    }

    return log;

};

Using the logger:

log.fatal('TESTING CLOUDWATCH');

Thanks

Same thing here. Did you find a workaround @gregorskii ?

[torgeir]

For the record, setting { stream: cloudwatchStream, type: "raw" } fixed this issue for me 🎉
#16 (comment)

[mirkokiefer]

As specified in the readme type: 'raw' always needs to be set.

[gregorskii]

I believe I had raw set, correct?

[mirkokiefer]

Ah true was mislead by the comment below - you were not able to resolve the issue @gregorskii ?

[gregorskii]

I fixed it in #16. Dunno if it's the best way to do it, but it worked.

[mirkokiefer]

Hm thats weird - maybe you can test with the latest version. Its testing with bunyan 2.0 now.

[RavidAshurov]

I am having the same issue.

I am using the "raw" options and the following package versions:
"bunyan": "^1.8.15",
"bunyan-cloudwatch": "^2.2.0",
"bunyan-format": "^0.2.1"
