@medishn/gland-logger v1.0.5

gland-logger

A customizable and modular logger designed for both console and file-based logging with support for file rotation, buffering, color personalization, and modular transport handling.

Features

• Console and File Logging: Log messages to both console and file with custom formats.
• File Rotation: Automatically rotate log files based on size.
• Buffering: Buffer logs and flush them at intervals or when reaching a buffer size.
• Color Personalization: Customize log message colors for better console readability.
• Modular Transports: Easily configure and extend logging transports (console, file).
• Customizable Log Levels: Use predefined log levels (info, warn, error, debug) or set your own.
• Default Levels: The default log level is info if not specified.

Installation

npm install @medishn/gland-logger

Usage

Basic Setup

import { Logger } from "@medishn/gland-logger";

const logger = new Logger({
  transports: ["console", "file"],
  file: "app.log",
});

logger.log({
  message: "Application started",
  level: "info",
  category: "APP",
});

Customizing Log Colors

You can personalize console log colors for each log level.

const logger = new Logger({
  transports: ["console"],
  console: {
    colors: {
      info: "\x1b[32m", // green
      warn: "\x1b[33m", // yellow
      error: "\x1b[31m", // red
      debug: "\x1b[34m", // blue
    },
  },
});

logger.log({ message: "Server started", level: "info" });

File Rotation and Buffering

You can specify file rotation settings, such as maximum file size, and buffer log entries to be flushed at regular intervals.

const logger = new Logger({
  transports: ["file"],
  file: "app.log",
  rotation: { maxSize: 1024 * 1024 }, // 1MB file size before rotating
});

logger.log({ message: "Logging to file with rotation", level: "debug" });
