Winston-console-for-electron NPM

winston-console-for-electron

A modified version of Winston's Console Transport to support Electron applications. Created mainly for use in VSCodeVim, an extension for VSCode, but it's generic enough to be used for other Electron applications.

Installation

npm i --save winston-console-for-electron

Usage

Requires winston > 3.0

import * as winston from 'winston';
import { ConsoleForElectron } from 'winston-console-for-electron';
