How can I use the same instance of pino in and out of express?

[danjenkins]

Either its too early in my day or I can't see a way of say creating a pino instance and then using that within this library.

[mcollina]

Currently there is not. The reason is that pino currently does not support injecting serializers in live instance or child loggers.

PR? :) Or we'll get it done asap!

[danjenkins]

Ah that makes sense! Thanks @mcollina ! I need to get something out the door right now for a client but will attempt to come back to this tomorrow or wed :) unless you get there first :) Thanks for the quick reply.

See pinojs/pino#66

So the way I did it in hapi-pino wouldn't work for this module? hapijs/hapi-pino#8 (diff)

[mcollina]

yes it will. It's a bit undocumented, and not API-compatible with Bunyan.
Anyway, I'm happy if you send in a similar PR!

Fixed in v1.1.0.
