axios-logger

Beautify Axios Logging Messages.

When you send a request in nodejs, you need to show the log to the console. This library display the necessary information while communicating with the server.

Basically This package is working as Axios's interceptors.

Install

$ npm install axios-logger --save-dev

How to use

You can use various loggers through the axios's interceptor API.

Logging Request

import axios from 'axios';
import * as AxiosLogger from 'axios-logger';

const instance = axios.create();
instance.interceptors.request.use(AxiosLogger.requestLogger);

If you want to use your own interceptor, you can compose(mixin) with requestLogger.

instance.interceptors.request.use((request) => {
    // write down your request intercept.
    return AxiosLogger.requestLogger(request);
});

Logging Response

import axios from 'axios';
import * as AxiosLogger from 'axios-logger';

const instance = axios.create();
instance.interceptors.response.use(AxiosLogger.responseLogger);

Also if you want to use your own interceptor, you can compose(mixin) with responseLogger.

instance.interceptors.response.use((response) => {
    // write down your response intercept.
    return AxiosLogger.responseLogger(response);
});

Error

You can inject errorLogger right after requestLogger or responseLogger.

import axios from 'axios';
import * as AxiosLogger from 'axios-logger';

const instance = axios.create();
instance.interceptors.request.use(AxiosLogger.requestLogger, AxiosLogger.errorLogger);
instance.interceptors.response.use(AxiosLogger.responseLogger, AxiosLogger.errorLogger);

Also if you want to use your own interceptor, you can compose(mixin) with errorLogger.

instance.interceptors.response.use(AxiosLogger.responseLogger, (err) => {
    // write down your error intercept.
    return AxiosLogger.errorLogger(err);
});

Configuration Settings

You can adjust several features as desired through configuration file. If you want to set config globally, using setGlobalConfig method.

setGlobalConfig({
    prefixText: 'your prefix',
    dateFormat: 'HH:MM:ss',
    status: false,
    headers: true,
    logger: someLogger.info.bind(this),
});

Or it can also be passed on as a second argument and applied locally. In this case, any property explicitly defined will override the global configuration.

instance.interceptors.request.use((request) => {
    // write down your request intercept.
    return AxiosLogger.requestLogger(request, {
        prefixText: 'your prefix',
        dateFormat: 'HH:MM:ss',
        status: false,
        headers: true,
        logger: someLogger.error.bind(this),
    });
});

Enable config list

Property	Type	Default	Description
method	boolean	true	Whether to include HTTP method or not.
url	boolean	true	Whether to include the URL or not.
params	boolean	false	Whether to include the URL params or not.
data	boolean	true	Whether to include request/response data or not.
status	boolean	true	Whether to include response statuses or not.
statusText	boolean	true	Whether to include response status text or not.
headers	boolean	false	Whether to include HTTP headers or not.
prefixText	string | false	'Axios'	false => no prefix, otherwise, customize the prefix wanted.
dateFormat	dateformat | false	false	false => no timestamp, otherwise, customize its format
logger	function<string, any>	console.log	Allows users to customize the logger function to be used. e.g. Winston's logger.info could be leveraged, like this: logger.info.bind(this)
