Fancy console logger

A decorator for console.log() that adds extra functionalities:

• Adding a payload
• Text in color
• Output the filename where the log is located

This package was created for fun and study purposes, feel free to use it and give constructive criticism :)

Quick start

First, run npm install fancy-console-logger. Then you can import the logger into your app as:

import { fconsole } from 'fancy-console-logger';

fconsole.log('Some text');

The logger makes uses of the decorator pattern to add the extra funtionalities

Usages

Log message

fconsole.log('Some text');

Log message with payload

This will allow you to log a payload as an object for extra information

fconsole.log('Some text', { another: 'text', anotherMore: 'text' });

Log message with color

This will allow you to log your data with any given color

import { fconsole, TextColors } from 'fancy-console-logger';

fconsole.log('This text should be green', {}, TextColors.Green);

Log message with the name of the file where is located

If you want to know where the log was added, for debugging you can also pass a flag

fconsole.log('This will also ouput the name of the file', {}, null, true);

Use them all

Needless to say, you can combine all the previous options whichever way is more convenient for you

import { fconsole, TextColors } from 'fancy-console-logger';

fconsole.log('This should show green, the payload and the filename', { test: 'test' }, TextColors.Green, true);
