Better console output in HapiJS?

I feel like I'm missing something basic, but I can't work out how to get better console output in HapiJS.

I am writing an API, and at the moment when there is an error it prints out.

150516/063815.663, [response], http://localhost:3000: post /users{} 500 (120ms)

And returns a response saying "there was an internal server error".

What do I need to change to see what that error output actually was?

There are number of ways to log your Hapi.js project

  1. Bucker - instance logger made by some hapi dude
  2. Good - Good - hapijs plugin style
  3. Winston - probably one of the most common logger for node.js

It looks like you're using the Good plugin.

If so, you can change the console reporter to include Error logs by adding error: '*' to the events hash.

 reporters: [{
    reporter: require('good-console'),
    events: { log: '*', response: '*', error: '*' }
}]
