📌Usage

Apply text color

Apply font color with camelcase color names:

import Logger, { Level } from 'bite-log';

const myLogger = new Logger(Level.debug);

myLogger.darkGreen.log('A green message! Hurray!');
myLogger.crimson.warn('A crimson warning');
myLogger.deepSkyBlue.debug('STOP! Debug time');

Apply background colors

Apply background colors by prepending bg to camelcase color names:

import Logger, { Level } from 'bite-log';

const myLogger = new Logger(Level.debug);

myLogger.bgGold.warn('Bright gold warning!');
myLogger.bgSalmon.error('ERROR! undefined variable');
myLogger.bgChartreuse.debug('Debug session starts here');
myLogger.bgViolet.log('All tests passed');

Apply text styles

Style text with style names:

import Logger, { Level } from 'bite-log';

const myLogger = new Logger(Level.debug);

myLogger.underline.warn('An underlined warning');
myLogger.bold.debug('BOLD for extra attention!');
myLogger.italic.debug('Note to self -->>>>>>');

Apply text sizes

Change font size with size names:

import Logger, { Level } from 'bite-log';

const myLogger = new Logger(Level.debug);

myLogger.log('Regular text');
myLogger.big.warn('Big warning');
myLogger.huge.error('Look out! An error');

Apply multiple colors and styles

You can combine colors, background colors, text style and size by chaining them together!

One style combination

You can apply the same styles to your entire message:

import Logger, { Level } from 'bite-log';

const myLogger = new Logger(Level.debug);

myLogger.bgYellow.italic.error('Error! Try again');
myLogger.deepPink.huge.underline.warn('You can"t miss this warning msg!');
myLogger.bgBlack.white.big.bold.log('Check out this Dark theme in my console');

Multple style combinations applied to text segments

You can also divide a message into multiple segments, and apply a different style combination to each segment.

Pass each text segment into .txt(), and pass the final text segment into one of the four logger methods:

import Logger, { Level } from 'bite-log';

const myLogger = new Logger(Level.debug);

myLogger.bgYellow.italic.huge
  .txt('ERROR:')
  .blue.big.txt(' Typescript tests have failed..')
  .red.bold.error(' Stacktrace this error below ⬇️');
