Console Logging

[yesitskev]

Is there an example or some functionality to do with redirecting logging to the chrome console instead of to logcat or wherever?

If not, lets get something like this implemented?

I did a dirty hack to get logging functionality (i used Timber by Jake Wharton).

It appears that extending Console was a problem. I can only assume that the classname is being used to hookup the class and methods to chrome's handles. I recommend perhaps using a class annotation to allow for multiple handlers for each of chromes handles.

Here is a little hack example in case anyone else runs into this: StethoTree

There is a pretty straight forward way to make this work using ChromePeerManager and hacking Stetho itself just a little bit (patches welcome grin). Specifically, something like:

public class Console ... {
  private final ConsolePeerManager mConsolePeerManager = ConsolePeerManager.getInstance();

  @ChromeDevtoolsMethod
  public void enable(...) {
    mConsolePeerManager.addPeer(peer);
  }
}

public final class ConsolePeerManager extends ChromePeerManager { ... }

With that change, you can now track all peers that are aware of console updates and can dispatch to them easily using CLog:

CLog.writeToConsole(ConsolePeerManager.getInstance(), ...);

We wanted to encapsulate this for you, allowing for CLog itself to guess ConsolePeerManager.getInstnace() by default as well so that callers could just invoke:

CLog.writeToConsole(MessageLevel.WARNING, MessageSource.NETWORK, "foo");
