qlt

Quick and lightweight logging tool for node.js. Free yourelf from writing console.log all the time!

Create output on the fly and print it with just a few keystrokes.

var how_is_it = 'awesome';
('Wow, this is ' + how_is_it).logn;
//This produces the same
'Wow, this is'.log; how_is_it.logn;

Wow, this is awesome!

It's a more convinient, cleaner and even faster (25% compared to console.log) way to display output from your app.

###Great! How can i use it?

All datatypes (not only strings!) are provided with two new properties:

• log (prints value to stdout)
• logn (prints value and newline to stdout)

Changing .log property of object prototype collides with console.log, so objects use .print instead of .log. .logn is the same for all.

###Install

npm install qlt

Example

There's no need to assign this module to a variable. Just require it and you're good to go!

require('qlt');
var a = 5;
var b = 'a';
var c = [1,2];
var d = true;
var e = {
    a:5,
    b:6
};
var f = new Date();


a.log;
b.logn;
c.log;
d.logn;
e.logn;
e.print; //e is an object!
f.logn;
('How convinient! This is a: ' + a + ', and this is c: ' + c).log;

Outputs:

5a
[1,2]true
{ a: 5, b: 6 }
{ a: 5, b: 6 }Mon Mar 31 2014 21:11:31 GMT+0200 (CEST)
How convinient! This is a: 5, and this is c: 1,2
