console-proxy

minimal console proxy for the browser and Node.js

This module allows you to intercept console messages on all browsers and on Node.js. It will not override the global console object and it will not create stubs for environments where console is not implemented.

Installation

$ npm install console-proxy

Usage

Include the library on Node.js

var consoleProxy = require('console-proxy');

or include the script for browser (0.36 KB gzipped) usage

 <script src="https://raw.github.com/bermi/jsonp-client/master/dist/jsonp-client.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Create a console proxy

var console = consoleProxy.getConsole({
    log: function () {
      var args = Array.prototype.slice.apply(arguments);
      args.unshift("[info]", new Date());
      return args;
    }
  });

console.log("Hello", "world");
//=> [info] Sat Apr 27 2013 15:38:56 GMT+0200 (CEST) Hello world

console.[error/info/memory/profile] will continue working as expected unless they are explicitly proxied

Getting the original console

If you want a reference to the unproxied console you can do so with

var originalConsole = consoleProxy.getOriginalConsole();

Testing
