Support option for ignoring paths

Our hapi servers export a /healthz it would be nice if we could omit those requests from the logs.

Would you be open to a PR for this functionality?

I know another option would be to pipe to a filter but I wanted to see the appetite for this built in.

I need to silence our /healthz polling logs as well and tried to use the new ignorePaths feature in PR #30. However, it’s not flexible enough for my use case since it matches the routes against request.url.path which includes the request’s query params but my query params can have dynamic values.

Just in case it helps someone in the future, I ended up silencing our logs with this micro hapi plugin:

/**
 * A minimal plugin that silences the `hapi-pino`
 * response log for the `/healthz` route.
 */
exports.plugin = {
  register: async (server, options) => {
    server.ext('onPreResponse', (request, h) => {
      if (request.url.pathname === '/healthz') {
        request.logger.level = 'silent'
      }
      return h.continue
    })
  },
  name: 'health-log-silencer',
  version: '1.0.0'
}

I was still struggling with this and this worked well for me in the pino-http or express-pino-logger (which just uses pino-http) library:

const expressLogger = expressPino({
  autoLogging: {
    ignorePaths: ["/_next"],
    getPath: (req) => {
      if (/_next/.test(req.url)) {
        return "/_next"
      }
      return req.url
    }
  },
});
