Add configurable logger with Pino for Node.js and browser support

[Copilot]

Kernel requires logging that adapts to server (Node.js) and browser environments with configurable output formats, levels, and security controls.

Implementation

Universal Logger (packages/core/src/logger.ts)

• Runtime detection: Node.js vs browser, auto-selects defaults
• Node.js: Integrated Pino - high-performance, low-overhead structured logging
• Browser: Lightweight console-based logger
• Formats: json (structured), text (simple), pretty (colored via pino-pretty)
• File logging with rotation via Pino transports (Node.js only)
• Sensitive data redaction with Pino's native redact feature
• Child loggers with inherited context using Pino.child()
• Distributed tracing support (traceId/spanId)

Kernel Integration (packages/core/src/kernel.ts)

• Logger config via constructor, injected into PluginContext
• Replaced hardcoded console references

Schema Updates (packages/spec/src/system/logger.zod.ts)

• Applied .optional().default() pattern per repo standards

Dependencies (packages/core/package.json)

• Added pino@^8.17.0 for Node.js logging
• Added pino-pretty@^10.3.0 for development-friendly output

Usage

// Kernel with logger config
const kernel = new ObjectKernel({
  logger: {
    level: 'debug',
    format: 'pretty',
    file: './logs/app.log',  // Node.js only
    redact: ['password', 'apiKey']
  }
});

// Plugin receives configured logger (Pino in Node.js)
const plugin: Plugin = {
  name: 'my-plugin',
  init: async (ctx) => {
    ctx.logger.info('Initialized', { version: '1.0.0' });
    ctx.logger.error('Failed', error, { context: 'db' });
  }
};

// Standalone logger
const logger = createLogger({ format: 'json' });
const childLogger = logger.child({ requestId: '123' });
const tracedLogger = logger.withTrace('trace-id', 'span-id');

Technical Notes

• Node.js: Uses Pino for production-grade logging with minimal overhead
• Browser: Simple console implementation, no external dependencies
• Pino provides native support for transports, rotation, child loggers, and redaction
• Logger interface includes optional destroy() for resource cleanup
• 23 tests covering both runtime environments

Original prompt

内核应该提供可配置的日志能力，但需要兼顾服务端和浏览器端的运行模式。

@copilot nodejs端可以接入pino，不要自己写完整的日志实现

@copilot nodejs端可以接入pino，不要自己写完整的日志实现

已完成。Node.js端已集成Pino作为日志实现，浏览器端保留简单的console实现。

Changes in commit 07718d5:

• Added pino and pino-pretty dependencies
• Refactored logger to use Pino for Node.js environments
• Leveraged Pino's built-in features: transports, redaction, child loggers, and pretty printing
• Updated documentation to highlight Pino integration

All 23 tests still passing.

Pull request overview

Adds a universal, configurable logging system to the ObjectStack kernel that supports both Node.js (via Pino) and browser environments, and wires it through the plugin context.

Changes:

• Introduces ObjectLogger / createLogger with environment detection, formatting options, redaction, and child/tracing helpers.
• Integrates the logger into ObjectKernel and updates PluginContext typing accordingly.
• Adds logger configuration schema updates, Vitest setup, tests, and documentation/examples.

packages/core is ESM (type: "module"), so require('pino') will throw at runtime and the logger will always fall back to console in Node. Switch to an ESM-compatible load (e.g., dynamic import('pino') with async/lazy initialization, or a Node-only module using createRequire + conditional exports) so Pino is actually usable.

Suggested change

	private initPinoLogger() {
	if (!this.isNode) return;
	try {
	// Dynamic import for Pino (Node.js only)
	const pino = require('pino');
	private async initPinoLogger() {
	if (!this.isNode) return;
	try {
	// Dynamic import for Pino (Node.js only, ESM-compatible)
	const { default: pino } = await import('pino');
