// {"level": 30, "message": "hello world"}

logger.warn('some user is invalid', {name: 'Bob', age: 20})
// {"level": 40, "message": "some user is invalid", "detail": {"name": "Bob", "age": 20}}

logger.error('Something', new TypeError('invalid arg'), 'Wrong!!!')
// {"level": 50, messages:['Something', 'Wrong!!!'], "error": {"name": "TypeError", "message": "invalid arg", "stack": ...}}

Set Options via Code

const logger = require('simple-json-logger')

logger.options.printLevel = 40

logger.info('ok') // won't be printed

logger.warn('warning!') // printed
