Desc:

create debug from "debug" using module.id/filename

...WIP

Requires:
Node like modules as in { id: filename, filename: __filename }

Install:

npm i @australis/create-debug

Usage:

/** 
 * with default options
 */
import { debugModule }  from "@australis/create-debug";
const debug = debugModule(module); // IDebugger
debug("Hello"); // => 'packageName|parent|moduleFileName Hello'

/** 
 * with options 
 */
import { debugModule } from "@australis/create-debug";
const debug /*:IDebugger*/ = debugModule(module, {
    out: console.log.bind(console),
    suffix: ":"
});    
debug("Hello"); // => 'packageName|parent|moduleFileName: Hello'

/** 
 * to change IDebug/IDebugFty 
 */
 import { moduleDebugger } from "@ausrtalis/create-debug/";
 const debugModule = moduleDebugger(
        require("debug"), 
            { 
                suffix: ":", 
                out: console.log.bind(console)
            }
        );
const debug = debugModule(module);
debug.log("Hello); // => 'packageName|parent|moduleFileName: Hello'

Notes/Features:

Debugger namespace: ${package.name}|${module.filename.parents}|${module.name}

• parents+name: collapsed/compressed, ex: xyz/xyz/xyz => xyz
• index: collapsed to parent dir or package.name
• redirects to stdout if process.env.DEBUG_TO === "stdout"

It tries to favor/promote:

• no-config
• consitent/normalized namespaceing
• predictable output
• locate debug/logging source
• folder-module-pattern
• flat-nesting
• short-names
• name-re-use
• namespacing
• re-exports
• feature-function classification

ex:

@my/pkg|repo|users|get
@your/auth/handler|login
@else/auth/middleware|require-role

eventually:

reuse Debug as Logger  
use-case:   
    wrapped nodejs app as a service that redirects stdout to a file  
    ex: node-windows

Todo:

provide global hook to Debug.log,
maybe a global event?
