tiny-console-logger v1.0.3

tiny-console-logger

Small and super simple console logger with log level, formatter and custom reporter support. Runs in node and the browser, written in TypeScript.

Installation

npm i tiny-console-logger

Getting started

import createLogger, { LogLevel } from 'tiny-console-logger';

const logger = createLogger();
logger.setLevel(LogLevel.INFO);
logger.log('Hello');

Log levels

• LogLevel.ERROR: allows .error calls
• LogLevel.WARN: allows .warn calls and calls above
• LogLevel.INFO: allows .log and .info calls and calls above
• LogLevel.DEBUG: allows .debug calls and calls above
• LogLevel.TRACE: allows .trace calls and calls above

Reporters

A reporter does the actual logging. The default reporter uses the global console, but it's also possible to use a custom reporter:

const arrayLog = [];
logger.setReporter((args, methodName, logLevel) => {
  arrayLog.push(`[${logLevel}] ${args.map(String).join(' ')}`);
});

Because reporters are functions, they are easy to combine:

import createLogger, { defaultReporter } from 'tiny-console-logger';

const arrayLog = [];
const logger = createLogger();

logger.setReporter((args, methodName, logLevel) => {
  arrayLog.push(`[${logLevel}] ${args.map(String).join(' ')}`);
  defaultReporter(args, methodName, logLevel);
});

Formatters

A formatter modifies arguments passed to the reporter. The default formatter just returns arguments as-is, but it's possible to use a custom formatter:

logger.setFormatter(args => ['[prefix]', ...args]);

Or:

logger.setFormatter((args, methodName, logLevel) => [
  `[${logLevel}:prefix]`,
  ...args,
  `(console.${methodName})`
]);
