log-2-route v1.9.2

About The Project

I was looking for an easy-to-use file logger for my Next.js apps, suitable for both development and production, without the need to deploy to Vercel. I tried several popular solutions, but none of them worked well for my use cases, so of course I had to roll my own.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Installation

Install

npm i log-2-route

Configure

node ./node_modules/log-2-route/install/config

The config script will perform a few tasks

Configuration

{
    "logFile": {
      "format": "ndjson",
      "enabled": true,
      "fileName": "app.log",
      "location": "./",
      "timeType": "epoch",
      "colorizeStyledLog": false
    },
    "console": {
      "format": "styled",
      "enabled": true
      "timeType": "epoch",
      "colorizeStyledLog": true
    }
  }

Logfile Options

Console Options

Usage

Importing

import { logger } from 'log-2-route';

Logging

logger.info('messsage');
logger.error('message');
logger.success('message');
logger.debug('message');
logger.warn('message');

Example

try {
  // codes...
}
catch(e) {
  logger.error((e instanceOf Error).message);
  logger.debug((e instanceOf Error).stack);
}

*logger.debug() will only output to the logfile.

logger.success('User has done a thing!');

Logger can take multiple arguments and argument types

logger.info('User logged in', { level: 1 }, 12345);

And if set to styled will log

[7378237287] INFO - User logged in level: 1

Output

[12/23/2024, 7:40:59 AM] INFO - User Rudy Schneider logged in

{"type":"info","time":{"epoch":1734957920354},"data":{"message":"User Rudy Schneider logged in"}}
