msg is empty on logger.log( 'error' ) #106
Description
Lapin will log
- error - when error occurs
- info - when success
- warn - when fail
For the error, our logger is integrated to slack in which we can receive real time errors on #error-logs channel. We noticed that msg is empty when it should not be. msg by the way is the msg sent to a certain service for it to consume.
See here where we set msg: https://github.com/sinet/lapin/blob/master/lib/req-res/status.js#L59
And the reason we do deep clone before is that lapin will hang. My hypothesis is - it's because lapin and logger are both using the msg object. So that to disrupt lapin from using the msg object we just cloned the msg object for logger's usage. I think we'll just look into deep merge using Object.assign.
I also read something about deep clone
Warning for Deep Clone
For deep cloning, we need to use other alternatives. This is because Object.assign() copies the property reference when the property being assigned is an object.

Messages we sent to the consumers are not all objects.
