debug-log2

An environment based mini-lib to replace console.log in Node.js applications. Adds log context information automatically. Without the DEBUG environment variable, all logs are silent.

Install

npm install --save debug-log2

Usage

var debug = require('debug-log2')

debug.enable()

function _namedFunction(param){
  debug('This is an example', param)
}

_namedFunction('function parameter')
// filename.js:6 in _namedFunction() This is an example function parameter
_namedFunction(42)
// app.js:6 in _namedFunction() This is an example 42
_namedFunction({param:'foo'})
// app.js:6 in _namedFunction() This is an example { param: 'foo' }

###debug.enable()

This is a helper function so you do not need to set the environment variable prior to running your app. If this gets run, process.env.DEBUG will be set to true, and all debug logs will be printed to console.

###debug.disable()

This is a helper function to unset the debug variable. If this gets run, process.env.DEBUG will be set to false, and all debug logs will be ignored.
