📝 A simplistic node.js logger that can be configured to the max.

Example output

  • No configuration necessary!
  • Name & Color support!
  • Automatic padding!
  • Info, Success, Error, and warn functions!
  • A debug function that can be toggled!
  • Automatic name & color selection!

Usage

You can choose to either pass options as an argument...

const logger = require('outputjs');
const chalk = require('chalk');
const options = {
    name: 'server',       //Name of the logger. Will be displayed in [] tags. DEFAULT: Name of caller file
    color: chalk.bgGreen, //Color used for highlighting the name. DEFAULT: random unique color
    padding: 10,          //Padding with x width for the name. DEFAULT: 10
    prefix: '-->',        //Prefix used after the name. DEFAULT: "->"
    debug: true,          //Enables output with .debug() DEFAULT: false
    debugPrefix: 'D: ',   //Prefix used for debugging. DEFAULT: "DEBUG:"
    filePath: 'output.js' //Outputs everything to a file. Doesn't support colors. DEFAULT: false
}
const server = new logger(options);

...or simple go with no configuration at all.

const logger = require('outputjs');
const server = new logger();

The following functions are available to you:

server.debug("A debug message! Without debug set to true, it won't display. Highlighted in bright yellow.");
server.info("A info message! Highlighted in white.");
server.success("A success message! Highlighted in green.");
server.warn("A warn message! Highlighted in yellow.");
server.error("A error message! Highlighted in red.");
