Sails 0.12 obviously not compatible with Winston 3.0

[egomezr]

Sails version: 0.12.13
Node version: 6.10.2
NPM version: 3.10.10
DB adapter name: N/A
DB adapter version: N/A
Operating system: Ubuntu 16.04

I'm unable to run Sails along with Winston. Looks that Sails is executing a sort of binding.

The main error is:
Uncaught TypeError: this.write is not a function

I found a workaround doing the following:

let winstonLogger = createLogger(loggerSettings);
let logger = {
    'info': function () {
        winstonLogger.info(...arguments);
    },
    'debug': function () {
        winstonLogger.debug(...arguments);
    },
    'error': function () {
        winstonLogger.error(...arguments);
    },
    'warn': function () {
        winstonLogger.warn(...arguments);
    },
    'log': function () {
        winstonLogger.log(...arguments);
    }
};
// End of workaround

module.exports.log = {
    custom: logger,
    inspect: false
};

@egomezr thanks for posting your workaround! To make sure I understand, you were having issues using the approach documented here with Winston 3.x?

[egomezr]

Hello, You're welcome. Yes, that approach doesn't work.

Hello everyone, just wanted to say that with Sails v1.0 its the same problem. I've tried the new createLogger syntax, but i'm getting the same error as @egomezr

[mosgamal]

Quick fix applied to captains-log fixed the issue for me:

What is the Status here? With Sails v1.0 the example here does not work...

Thanks for an answer ;)

[luislobo]

Created PR that should fix this. balderdashy/captains-log#25
