[QUESTION] Fetch request ID about nestjs-pino HOT 13 CLOSED

This is resolved for me now.
Solution:- Im generating new requestId in middleware for each request and updating the request object with the requestId property.

from nestjs-pino.

@iamolegga Anyway to use requestId in other class?

Please provide some minimal represented repo, without mongo and all other unnecessary things

@iamolegga Actually there is one scenario in which I need to generate requestId which is not handled by nestjs Pino. The scenario is as below:-

We get some events from a publisher in our nodejs code. Now I need to log that request(event) and generate new unique requestId. The issue is how genReqId() can be called in this scenario?

from nestjs-pino.

If I understand correctly, can you also store genReqId function in variable of global or module scope when you define it?

from nestjs-pino.

Yes, so that request ID can be updated from lets say at the entry point of request or the origin of request is an event from Azure Event hub on reception of which the request Id can be generated.

Maybe you can provide tiny example?

from nestjs-pino.

I could but Im short of time. Sorry.
Scenario I can again explain:-

I have a event listener which receives the event from cloud. Now i need print the logs with requestID generated. Will my genReqId() method be called in this case. If not, how can we do that?

from nestjs-pino.

Only thing that I can suggest is export that genReqId directly or assign it to some variable and call it at any place you want 🤷‍♂️

Basically how can i call genReqId from anywhere in the code?

from nestjs-pino.

If you need some deps to create this function, you can assign it to variable, and export function that returns this variable
