## ✨ The Meaning Behind `clr-code`
Why **`clr-code`**? Let’s break it down:
- **CLR**: Short for **Clear** — representing the core mission of this tool: to **clear out** unnecessary `console.log()` statements from your code. We’re all about **streamlining** your codebase for a better, more professional look.
- **Code**: Refers to the JavaScript code that’s cleaned up, ensuring that your codebase stays neat, tidy, and **production-ready**.
**`clr-code`** is your one-stop tool for clearing out the clutter and making your code shine!
---
## ✨ Key Features
- **🧹 Effortless Cleanup**: Automatically removes all `console.log()` and `//console.log()` statements from your code, making it production-ready.
- **🔒 Keep Essential Logs**: Replace `console.log()` with `console.warn()` to preserve the logs you care about.
- **💡 Non-Destructive**: Your original file stays untouched while a new cleaned-up copy is generated, so you can always access your original code.
- **⚡ Simple CLI Command**: Run a single command to clean up your code — no complex configurations needed!
---
## 🚀 Installation
Install **`crl-code`** globally by running this command in your terminal:
```bash
npm install -g crl-code
Once installed, you can easily use crl-code via the command line to clean up your JavaScript files. Here’s how:
clr)The default clr command removes all console.log() and //console.log() statements from your code. This is the default behavior of the package, ensuring that your code is clean and production-ready.
To run the command:
clr
console.log() and //console.log() are removed, and a new clean copy of your file is created, leaving the original file unchanged.clr autoThe command clr auto is essentially the same as clr. You can use either of the following commands to achieve the same result:
clr auto
or
clr
Both commands automatically clean your file by removing all debug logs and creating a new, clean version of your file.
Need to keep some logs for debugging purposes? No problem! Simply replace console.log() with console.warn() where necessary, and crl-code will preserve them for you.
Before cleaning:
console.log("Debugging login flow..."); // Will be removed
console.warn("User data missing!"); // Will be preserved
After running clr auto:
console.warn("User data missing!"); // Preserved log
This ensures that essential debug logs remain intact while the unnecessary ones are removed.
auto: The clr auto command automatically removes all instances of console.log() and //console.log() from the given file and creates a clean copy.This is the default behavior — so no worries if you just type clr!
crl-code?Manually searching through your code to remove console.log() statements can be tedious and error-prone. With crl-code, you can automate this process and save time while preparing your code for production.
With crl-code, you don’t have to worry about losing important logs. Simply replace console.log() with console.warn() to preserve the logs you care about, and let the tool clean up the rest!
Here’s a quick walkthrough of how crl-code works:
app.js contains a mix of essential logs and unnecessary debug statements:console.log("Debugging login flow...");
console.warn("User data missing!");
console.log("Fixing bugs...");
clr auto
crl-code will generate a new file with all unnecessary logs removed and important warnings kept intact:console.warn("User data missing!");
Now your code is clean and ready for production deployment.
