Package Exports

basic-logger

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (basic-logger) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Basic-Logger

Basic logger for nodejs supporting error, warning, info, debug and trace messages with (or without) timestamp. Everything you log is printed to the console.

Installation

npm install basic-logger

Usage

var Logger = require('basic-logger');
// configure level one time, it will be set to every instance of the logger
Logger.setLevel('warning'); // only warnings and errors will be shown
Logger.setLevel('warning', true); // only warnings and errors will be shown and no message about the level change will be printed

var customConfig = {
    showMillis: true;
    showTimestamp: true;
};

var log = new Logger(customConfig) // custom config parameters will be used, defaults will be used for the other parameters

log.error('An error occurred');
log.warn('I am not kidding!');
log.info('you just screwed this');
log.debug('this code is still alive...');
log.trace('we are here.');

Config options

showTimestamp - Show the timestamp with every message.
showMillis - Show milliseconds in the timestamp.
printObjFunc - The function to apply objects to, if logged. Default is util.inspect.
prefix - String that is prepended to every message logged with this instance.
