Hapi.js Ops Log Management

If your Hapi.js server is using the Good Plugin for operations logs, you might want to know how to throttle the output. By default, Good spits out logs every 15 seconds. I really didn't need ops info that frequently.

After a bit of digging, I finally figured out how to achieve this. Just include this in your index.js after you've configured the server.

var loggingOptions = {
    "subscribers"   : {
        "console"   : [ "ops", "request", "log", "error" ]
    },
    "opsInterval" : 45000 // reduces ops logging to every 45 seconds
};

server.pack.require("good", loggingOptions, function( err ) {

    if( err ) throw err;

});

Now, you'll get a nice output of logging every 45 seconds.
