winchalk v1.0.1

Winchalk

An npm module that combines Winston and chalk for a yummy and colorful console logger.

Winchalk is just a Winston logger colorized with chalk. It is small and simple.

I made this module for myself, and though it's easy to customize your own Winston logger I thought I would let it out into the world since I use it all the time!

Documentation

Winchalk exports a Winston logger. For Winston documentation, read here: https://github.com/winstonjs/winston#readme

The log levels are as follows:

const Winchalk = require('winchalk');

Winchalk.critical("Critical is log level 0. I output in black on a red background.");
Winchalk.error("Error is log level 1. I output in red.");
Winchalk.warn("Warn is log level 2. I output in yellow.");
Winchalk.connection("Connection is log level 3. I output in green.");
Winchalk.info("Info is log level 4. I output in white.");
Winchalk.msgin("Msgin is log level 5. I output in cyan.");
Winchalk.msgout("Msgout is log level 6. I also output in cyan.");
Winchalk.start("Start is log level 7. I output in bright green.");
Winchalk.debug("Debug is log level 8. I output in gray.");
Winchalk.silly("Silly is log level 9. I output in magenta.");

This results in the following output to console:\

By default, Winchalk log level is set to 'silly', meaning it logs everything. For more information on log levels, see the Winston documentation.

Tests

You can see what the outputs look like in your own console by running the test.\ $ npm run test
