General logging function

To use the logging function, an one-time config needs to be set.

tool.setConfig( {
    hookURL : 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/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',
    slackChannel: '#testing',
    serverRole : 'testingRole', //Publisher || Publish service || API || Subscriber || BO
    serverBrandName : 'testingName', //ETW || AD || AD RTN || FacePop || Next plus || Me!
    MLBoDomain: 'http://127.0.0.1:4005' //The domain name / IP of MotherLode BO API
});

Whenever there is an error, this function can be called.

tool.logError(err, ['param1', 'param2'], 404, 'desc');

err is the error you got. Noted that it needs to be an Error. ['param1', 'param2'] is the parameter you passed to the error generating function. undefined can be passed if absent. 404 is the response code for problematic API call. undefined can be passed if absent. desc is a free-writing description to help debug. undefined can be passed if absent.

In case there is no Error object but still need to log. The function can be called in this way.

tool.logError(new Error('testing'), ['param1', 'param2'], 404, 'desc');

'testing' is a short error message.
