Question

I have a nodejs-express-mongoose application and I want to set logging system up.
I know about connect.logger() middleware but I want to log into MongoDB database.

Can I achieve that by using overriding connect.logger() middleware of are some express plugins for my purposes?

mongoose has a debug option that logs all collection method invocations (update, insert, find, ensureIndex, etc) with console.error. you may also override it with your own custom function:

mongoose.set('debug', true) // for logging with console.error
mongoose.set('debug', yourFunction) // to handle it yourself
