Usage

Complete API Documentation.

'use strict'

// create our clearable logger
const logger = require('logger-clearable').create()
const method = 'log'

// log the date every second
const timer = setInterval(function () {
    if (method === 'log') {
        const date = new Date()
        const time = date.toISOString()
        logger.log(time)
    } else {
        // the above will actually call: logger.queue(() => time)
        // instead, we can use queue directly:
        // using queue direclty is more performant as
        // any setup for our particular message will happen only if that message will be written
        // this is applicable as logger won't bother writing messages that would be cleared instantly
        // e.g. logger.log('hello').log('world') would otherwise write 'hello' then have to clear it right away
        // instead, logger just skips writing 'hello' and will just write 'world'
        logger.queue(function () {
            const date = new Date()
            const time = date.toISOString()
            return time
        })
    }
}, 100)

// on ctrl+c close the timer and discard any upcoming logs
process.on('SIGINT', () => {
    // stop any more calls to logger
    clearInterval(timer)
    // discard any logger queued updated
    logger.discard()
    // and clear the log
    logger.clear()
})
