node.js console.log output to file

[gleason]

Has anyone had any success logging node.js console.log to a file?

 

Was reading some other post about having to use home/username/logfile but coming up short

 

I did try home/mule/debug.log as well just for information

 

const fs = require('fs');

var util = require('util');

var log_file = fs.createWriteStream(__dirname + 'home/mule/node/debug.log', {flags : 'w'});

var log_stdout = process.stdout;

console.log = function(d) { //

  log_file.write(util.format(d) + '\n');

  log_stdout.write(util.format(d) + '\n');

};

 

attempting to use this information to troubleshoot my code.

 

potentially better idea to modify start.py to log errors but no clue how to go about doing that.
