debug-to-file is tiny, no dependecy helper to dump debug traces to a file (through DEBUG_FILE env var).

debug-to-file also allows you to customize debug output format using the DEBUG_FORMAT.

DEBUG_FILE

Declare env DEBUG_FILE as the debug-to-file target

Available format for DEBUG_FORMAT

• use :time for ISO timestamp
• use :namespace for debug namespace
• use :body for main payload
• use :diff for last msg diff

Defaut DEBUG_FORMAT is ":time :namespace :body"

Support for console.log/console.error

debug-to-file will duplex everything to the console into the trace file

Support for debug

debug-to-file will overrite debug.log (per specifications) to a dedicated file

Browserify recommandation

Exclude debug from browserify is a good way to make sure only one debug reference is loaded.
