A simple and colored log lib

This lib is intended to only be used in NodeJS. It will color your output, and will make sure it gets proper timestamping Example:

2016/10/26 00:44:37.484    ERROR    Error connecting to mongo:     {"name":"MongoError","message":"Authentication failed.","ok":0,"code":18,"errmsg":"Authentication failed."}

This sample identifies the following items: 1. timestamp 2. type of message (can be any one of debug, info, error) 3. user's message (text format) 4. JSON.stringified user's other objects passed as parameters.

How to use it ?

var log = require ('simple-color-log');

log.debug("Started this service. I will print some random JSON now:", {firstJson: "Value", secondKey:"secondValue"}, {error: "This is an error on the same log method"});

That's it. It knows about 3 logging methods and one shut-the-hell-up method.

  1. debug (loglevel 3)
  2. info (loglevel 2)
  3. error (loglevel 1)
  4. none (loglevel 0)

Usage:

log.<method>("Strings", myJSONVar, anArrayVar, "some other strings");
