Usage

const logger = require("@gakuto1112/nodejs-logger");

/* Debug log. Won't be outputted by default. */
logger.debug("Debug log");

/* Information log.*/
logger.info("Information log");

/* Warning log.*/
logger.warn("Warning log");

/* Error log.*/
logger.error("Error log");

Options

You can change log style by setting module options.

rootPath

The origin path that used to output relative path from it to caller path when outputting logs. It must be a valid path and a directory path. Otherwise, this module will throw InvalidPathError.

The initial value is the current directory of the terminal. You don't have to change this until you want to change module root path.

setRootPath() is an asynchronous function. Please make sure not to call log function until it returns resolve.

const logger = require("@gakuto1112/nodejs-logger");

/* This log includes the current directory of the terminal. */
logger.info("Prints current directory");

/** Changes module root path. */
logger.setRootPath("/path/to/new/root/path").then(function () => {
   /* This log includes the new root directory. */
   logger.info("Prints new root directory");
});

coloredLog

This option colors log level strings. It makes logs easy to see. However, it is recommended to turn of this option if the log is outputted to the text file (because control characters are outputted as normal characters).

Default value is false.

const logger = require("@gakuto1112/nodejs-logger");

/* Turn on the colored log feature. */
logger.setColoredLog(true);

/* This log will be colored. */
logger.info("Colored log");

setLogDebugLevel

This option determines whether debug level logs should be outputted or not.

Default value is false.

const logger = require("@gakuto1112/nodejs-logger");

/* This log won't be outputted. */
logger.debug("First debug log");

/* Turn on the debug logs. */
logger.setLogDebugLevel(true);

/* This log will be outputted. */
logger.debug("Second debug log");
