@future-widget-lab/ui-logger v0.1.4

@future-widget-lab/ui-logger

An opinionated but minimal logger built on top of loglevel. It allows you to define custom log levels, emojis for different log types, and control debug level logs based on URL search parameters.

Features

• Custom log levels and message formatting.
• Debug logging controlled by URL search parameters.
• Fine-grained control over debug visibility using tags.
• Emoji support for different log types.
• Optional side effects after a message is printed.

Installation

npm install @future-widget-lab/ui-logger

Usage

Basic Example

import { createLogger } from '@future-widget-lab/ui-logger';

const logger = createLogger({
  level: 'info'
});

logger.info({}, 'Application started');
logger.error({ errorCode: 500 }, 'Internal server error');

Debugging

To enable debug logs for a specific tag, add the corresponding search parameter to the URL.

const logger = createLogger({
  level: 'debug',
  allTag: 'all',
  debugSearchParameterName: 'debug'
});

logger.debug('auth-module', { user: 'test' }, 'Authentication successful');

To see the debug logs, navigate to:

http://example.com/?debug=auth-module

Or use the catch-all tag:

http://example.com/?debug=all

Customizing Log Emojis

const logger = createLogger({
  level: 'info',
  debugEmoji: '🐛',
  errorEmoji: '❌',
  infoEmoji: 'ℹ️',
  traceEmoji: '🔍',
  warnEmoji: '⚠️'
});

Handling Log Side Effects

You can perform custom actions after a log message is printed by using the onAfterMessage option. The logger handles formatting, while onAfterMessage can trigger side effects such as API calls.

const logger = createLogger({
  level: 'info',
  onAfterMessage: ({ level, timestamp, payload, message }) => {
    sendLogToAnalytics({ level, timestamp, payload, message });
  }
});
