Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Installation

Usage

Import hellog into your project and start logging:

import Hellog from '@steffthestunt/hellog';

// Initialize with default config
const logger = new Hellog();

logger.debug('Hello, world!');
// Outputs : 2024-12-21T13:48:08.064Z [INFO] Hello, world!

logger.info('This is an info message.');
// Outputs : 2024-12-21T13:48:08.064Z [INFO] This is an info message.

logger.warn('This is a warning message.');
// Outputs : 2024-12-21T13:48:08.064Z [WARN] This is a warning message.

logger.error('This is an error message.');
// Outputs : 2024-12-21T13:48:08.064Z [ERROR] This is an error message.

logger.info('Logging a number:', 123);
// Outputs : 2024-12-21T13:48:08.064Z [INFO] Logging a number: 123

logger.info('Logging an object:', { key: 'value' });
// Outputs : 2024-12-21T13:48:08.064Z [INFO] Logging an object: { key: 'value' }

logger.info('Logging an array:', [1, 2, 3]);
// Outputs : 2024-12-21T13:48:08.064Z [INFO] Logging an array: [ 1, 2, 3 ]

Features

  • Console-like API: Use debug, info, warn, and error methods.
  • Plugin-based extensibility: Extend functionality with plugins.
  • Zero dependencies: Lightweight and easy to integrate.

Plugins

Hellog's plugin system allows you to extend its functionality. Plugins can modify log messages and control how they are output.

Default Plugins

Hellog comes with these plugins enabled by default:

  • HellogLineBreakDefaultPlugin - A plugin to split console.log messages that would span over multiple lines and format each line separately.
  • HellogPrettyDefaultPlugin - A plugin to format log messages in a more readable way: {timestamp} [{level}] {message}.
  • HellogStdoutDefaultPlugin - A plugin to output log messages to stdout or stderr depending on the level.

Creating a Plugin

Plugins are created by extending the HellogPlugin base class:

import { HellogPlugin } from '@steffthestunt/hellog';

class TimestampPlugin extends HellogPlugin {
  transform(message, level) {
    const timestamp = new Date().toISOString();
    return `[${timestamp}] ${message}`;
  }
}

// Initialize logger with custom plugins
const logger = new Hellog({
  plugins: [new TimestampPlugin()],
});

Plugin Examples

Common plugin configurations:

import {
  HellogLineBreakPlugin,
  HellogPrettyPlugin,
  HellogStdoutPlugin,
} from '@steffthestunt/hellog';

// Initialize with multiple plugins
const logger = new Hellog({
  plugins: [
    // Default plugins
    new HellogLineBreakPlugin(),
    new HellogPrettyPlugin(),
    new HellogStdoutPlugin(),

    // Custom plugins
    new TimestampPlugin(),
  ],
});
