rf-logger v4.0.0

rf-logger

A simple logging utility with a save function.

Setup

The first parameter takes a name or a label that will prefix the log. Usually it's best to just use the name of whatever script is running the logger. If you want to save, the logs to a file, use

{ save: true }.

It will default save to:

./logs.log.

Otherwise, you can specify the path in options:

const logger = new Logger({ filename: "myscript.js", save: false, path: "./logs.log" });

It will save with timestamps in CSV format.

Timestamp format: YYMMDD HH:mm:ss.ms

If you want to import it to a spreadsheet, just change the extension .log to .csv.

Custom Log Name

You can add a custom log name by adding it to settings.

const logger = new Logger({ filename: "myscript.js", customLog: "fatality"});

logger.custom("this might be bad")
// (myscript.js) FATALITY this might be bad

Example

const Logger = require("./index.js");
const logger = new Logger({ filename: "myscript.js", save: false, path: "./logs.log", customLog: "fatality" });

logger.log("hello world")
// (myscript.js) hello world 

logger.info("hello info")
// (myscript.js) <INFO> hello info

logger.warn("hello warning")
// (myscript.js) <WARN> hello warning

logger.error("hello error")
// (myscript.js) <ERROR> hello error

logger.debug("hello debug")
// (myscript.js) <DEBUG> hello debug

logger.custom("hello custom")
// (myscript.js) <FATALITY> hello custom
