cloggy

A minimal debugging utility to replace console statements with debug powered logging. This works well with libraries like redux-logger;

Getting Started

npm install cloggy

In your code, require cloggy and pass in a namespace for your debug statements.

import cloggy from 'cloggy';

const log = cloggy('app');

log.info('Doing something');
log.error('An error happened');
log.debug('Doing something');
log.log('Doing something');
log.warn('Doing something');

Debugging can be enabled with space or comma-delimited names in the following ways:

• Browser: Open the browser console and set the following local storage item
  • localStorage.debug = '*'
  • localStorage.debug = '*,-not_this'
  • localStorage.debug = 'app:*,section:*'
• Node: Set DEBUG environment variable
  • DEBUG=* node app.js
  • DEBUG=*,-not_this node app.js
  • DEBUG=app:*,section:* node app.js

For more information about debug, check out the docs.

Methods

The returned debug object contains the following namespaced log statements.

• info
• debug
• log
• warn
• error

There's nothing really special about the different methods other than debug assigning unique colors per function.
