NGX Logger

NGX Logger is a simple logging module for angular (currently supports angular 5.*). It allows "pretty print" to the console, as well as allowing log messages to be POSTed to a URL for server-side logging.

Latest Updates to NGX Logger

Updating your config after importing the module has never been easier...

   this.logger.updateConfig({level: NgxLoggerLevel.DEBUG});

You can now create a standalone logger with it's own config!

 export class MyService {
   private logger: NGXLogger;
   constructor(customLogger: CustomNGXLoggerService) {
     this.logger = customLogger.create({level: NgxLoggerLevel.ERROR});
   
     this.logger.error('BLAHBLAHBLAH');
   }
 }

Dependencies

@angular/common
@angular/core

Installation

npm install --save ngx-logger

Once installed you need to import our main module:

import { LoggerModule, NgxLoggerLevel } from 'ngx-logger';

The only remaining part is to list the imported module in your application module, passing in a config to intialize the logger.

@NgModule({
  declarations: [AppComponent, ...],
  imports: [LoggerModule.forRoot({serverLoggingUrl: '/api/logs', level: NgxLoggerLevel.DEBUG, serverLogLevel: NgxLoggerLevel.ERROR}), ...],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {
}

Usage

To use the Logger, you will need import it locally, then call one of the logging functions

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { NGXLogger } from 'ngx-logger';

@Component({
  selector: 'your-component',
  templateUrl: './your.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['your.component.less'],
  providers: [NGXLogger]
})
export class YourComponent {
    constructor(private logger: NGXLogger) {
        this.logger.debug('Your log message goes here');
        this.logger.debug('Multiple', 'Argument', 'support');
    };
}

Config Options

serverLogLevel - Only sends logs to the server for the level specified or higher (OFF disables the logger for the server)
serverLoggingUrl - URL to POST logs
level: The app will only log message for that level or higher (OFF disables the logger for the client)

TRACE|DEBUG|INFO|LOG|WARN|ERROR|OFF

Server Side Logging

If serverLogginUrl exists, NGX Logger will attempt to POST that log to the server.

Payload Example {level: 'DEBUG', message: 'Your log message goes here'}

Testing your App when using NGXLogger

If you inject the of the NGX Logger services into your application. you will need to provide it in your Testing Module. All services have mocked classes that can be used for testing

NGXLoggerHttpService: NGXLoggerHttpServiceMock
CustomNGXLoggerService: CustomNGXLoggerServiceMock
NGXLogger: NGXLoggerMock

To provide them in your Testing Module

     TestBed.configureTestingModule({
       providers: [
         {provide: NGXLogger, useCLass: NGXLoggerMock},
         ...
       ],
       ...
     });

Development

All are welcome to contribute to NGX Logger. A couple quick notes to get started..

NGX Logger is built with https://github.com/jvandemo/generator-angular2-library
To use npm link, you must link the /src (or /dist after it is built) directory not root.
When possible, try to follow patterns that have already been established in the library
Try to make your code as simple as possible
- Even if the code could be made shorter, having code that is readable and easily understood is way more valuable
Have fun!
