Temporarily mute the console in node.js. Works with .log and .error. Resume and retrieve logged data later. Useful for intercepting logged data from any module and when testing modules that insist on logging all the things. Based on this gist. Here's a gist that works in the browser.
$ npm install console.mute
require('console.mute'); // adds mute and resume to console
console.log('a'); // will log
console.mute(); // mutes log
console.log('b'); // will not log
console.error('c'); // will not log
var data = console.resume(); // resumes log and returns logged data during mute
console.log('c'); // will log
console.log(data); // logs {stdout: ['b'], stderr: ['c']}
// alter history
console.mute();
console.log('a');
var part = console.resume('preserve'); // preserves history
console.mute();
console.log('b');
var history = console.resume(); // reset history
console.log(history.stdout); // logs ['a', 'b']$ npm test
