Implement Structured Logging with Enhanced Contextual Information

[monilpat]

Feature Request

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The current logging system lacks structured output and meaningful contextual information, which hinders the ability to effectively trace and debug issues across the application.

Describe the solution you'd like

Implement a structured logging framework, such as Bunyan or Winston, that supports JSON output and allows for the injection of contextual information. This should include:

• Standard fields such as timestamp, severity level, and correlation ID.
• Capability to add custom fields for enhanced context.
• Proper log levels (DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR) for better log management.

Code Example

const bunyan = require('bunyan');
const logger = bunyan.createLogger({
    name: 'eliza',
    streams: [
        {
            level: 'info',
            stream: process.stdout
        },
        {
            level: 'error',
            path: '/var/tmp/eliza-error.log'
        }
    ],
    serializers: {
        err: bunyan.stdSerializers.err
    }
});
logger.info({ userId: '12345', action: 'login' }, 'User logged in successfully');

Describe alternatives you've considered

Continuing with unstructured logs, but this approach makes it difficult to perform efficient log analysis and debugging.

Additional context

Enhancing the logging structure will significantly improve the observability of the system, making it easier to trace issues and understand system behavior.
