Log well and prosper. Happy Logging!
This is a logger for UI code with an Electrode server as backend support.
When your UI code is running on the browser, the logger will save up your logs and send them to the log API {basePath}/api/logger
every 10 seconds.
When your UI code is running on the server for SSR, the logger will call request.log
. This is why the request
option is required on the server.
Install
$ npm install electrode-ui-logger --save
Logger usage
The logging interface provides a simple api for generating developer logs.
import logger from "electrode-ui-logger";
logger.log(tags, data, options);
tags
- array of strings used to specify log level, transport(s) and to otherwise categorize log entriesdata
- string or object, for transmitting log message and other informationoptions
- object with additional options. Currently the only option isrequest
which is required for SSR. For CSR the options are ignored and can be considered optional.
Examples:
logger.log(["error"], {err: "some error occurred"}, {request: req});
logger.log("info", {msg: "hello, world"}); // you can use a string for tags directly
logger.info({msg: "info is hello world"});
Data objects have some special keys:
msg
: To include a log message along with other datalogger.log(["info"], { a: "b", msg: "Log message" });
err
: Errors should be passed in using theerr
field:logger.log(["error"], { err: err });
Reserved keys (do not use as top-level keys in data
): tags
Log levels
- To set the log level, include it in the tags.
- Valid log levels:
"trace", "debug", "info", "warn", "error", "fatal"
(case insensitive) - If more than one level is specified, the higher level is used. E.g.
logger.log(["info", "warn"], {})
will be logged atwarn
- Level defaults to
info
if none is specified
API Aliases
These are the API aliases for different log levels:
logger.info(data, options)
logger.warn(data, options)
logger.fatal(data, options)
logger.error(data, options)
logger.debug(data, options)
logger.trace(data, options)
