Log Pipelines, Vite and other Adventures in Nodeland - Issue #29
Hi Everyone! Last week have been incredibly busy between NodeConf preparations, the upcoming Pino@7 release and Node.js maintenance.

The work on pino@7 keep progressing smoothly. This time we identified a missing feature: transports must be pipelineable. It’s a common pattern to wire them next to each other and combine them as needed. I worked hard to implement this feature - in fact I tumbled on this making some silly mistakes in the process and it took most of my coding time for the week to get right. Now it is out in pino@7.0.0-rc.8 and I’m so excited about it. I hope I will be able to launch pino@7 at NodeConf remote!

I have been excited about Vite since the day it was first released to the public. I can’t be more excited to show you the new documentation site for fastify-vite. This new fastify plugin includes all you need to do server-side rendering with a breeze, using Fastify and Vite. Jonas is going to present a workshop about it at NodeConf Remote!

I have been researching/studying the topic of validation for GraphQL for a few projects already and I came to the conclusion that no existing solutions worked well enough for the developer experience I wanted to achieve. The new mercurius-validation module built by Jonny does it all in the way I would use it!

I read the above story on twitter and it resonated well with my own experiences: the problems at a tech company are almost never tech-related but people-related. Make sure to read it if a shiny new startup offers you a gig!
One of the most important product launches of last week was CloudFlare entering the block storage market with R2! Cheaper-than-S3 storage for all of you! Where is the catch? You have to script it with Workers instead of Lambda.

We’re excited to announce Cloudflare R2 Storage! By giving developers the ability to store large amounts of unstructured data, we’re expanding what’s possible with Cloudflare while slashing the egress bandwidth fees associated with typical cloud storage services to zero.

Have you ever implemented authorization logic for your product? I guess all of us have more than once. SpiceDB is a new Open Source product from Authzed that you can help reducing that work load. Check it out:

I’m a huge fan of the micro frontend pattern and I really enjoy when the companies share their internal knowledge. One thing I would love to see is some code to implement this pattern: why don’t they Open Source their internal frameworks? Anyway, read up the Netflix experience:
