multiple logger levels for multiple files in sails.js

I want to create separate files for every log levels, and it should store respective files. says,

sails.log.info('Info log');

It should store at info.log file.

  var logger = new (winston.Logger)({
  transports: [
    new (winston.transports.Console)({}),
    new (winston.transports.File)({
      name: 'info-file',
      filename: 'info.log',
      level: 'info',
      json: false
    }),
    new (winston.transports.File)({
      name: 'error-file',
      filename: 'error.log',
      level: 'error',
      json: false
    }),
    new (winston.transports.File)({
      name: 'debug-file',
      filename: 'debug.log',
      level: 'debug',
      json: false
    })
  ]
});

In config/log.js

 custom: logger

My problem is some logs are not shows in terminal, and info.log and debug.log files has not only info and debug log respectively.

How to achieve this?

Well, looks like Winston writes to logs based on their numeric levels. So that error messages will be always written to info log, but info never to error log.

So I think it is better to separate to different instances in config/bootstrap.js:

sails.warnLog = new (winston.Logger)({
      transports: [
        new (winston.transports.Sentry)({
          name: 'warn-Sentry',
          dsn: '{my account dsn}',
          patchGlobal: true
          level: 'warn'
        })
      ]});

sails.infLog = new (winston.Logger)({
      transports: [
        new (winston.transports.Loggly)({
          name: 'info-Loggly',
          subdomain: '{my subdomain}',
          inputToken: '{my input token}'
          level: 'info'
        })
      ]});

sails.verbLog = new (winston.Logger)({
      transports: [
        new (winston.transports.Console)({
          name: 'verb-console',
          timestamp: true,
          prettyPrint: true,
          colorize: true,
          level: 'verbose'
        })
      ]});

And then you can write to log:

sails.warnLog.warn('Warning');
sails.infLog.info('Information');
sails.verbLog.verbose('Verbose');
