Enhanced console logging with colorization and remote capabilities for Node.js applications.
console.text() method for remote loggingnpm install consoleiq
const { createConsoleIQ } = require('consoleiq');
// Initialize with default options
const ConsoleIQ = createConsoleIQ();
// Use enhanced console methods
console.log('Regular log message');
console.info('Info message in blue');
console.warn('Warning message in yellow');
console.error('Error message in red');
console.debug('Debug message in green');
// Use custom text method (for remote logging)
console.text('This can be sent to a remote server if configured');
// When done, restore original console behavior
ConsoleIQ.restore();
const { createConsoleIQ } = require('consoleiq');
const ConsoleIQ = createConsoleIQ({
// API key for authentication (optional)
apiKey: 'your-api-key',
// Enable/disable colorization (default: true)
colorize: true,
// Enable/disable console output (default: false)
silent: false
});
// src/logger.js
import { createConsoleIQ } from 'consoleiq';
export const logger = createConsoleIQ({
apiKey: process.env.REACT_APP_LOGGING_API_KEY
});
// src/index.js or App.js
import { logger } from './logger';
// Initialize logger early in your app
logger.init();
// Use in your components
function App() {
useEffect(() => {
console.info('App mounted');
console.text('This will be sent to the server');
// Cleanup on unmount
return () => logger.restore();
}, []);
return <div>Your App</div>;
}
// src/hooks/useLogger.js
import { useEffect } from 'react';
import { createConsoleIQ } from 'consoleIQ';
export function useLogger(config = {}) {
useEffect(() => {
const logger = createConsoleIQ(config);
logger.init();
return () => logger.restore();
}, []);
}
// Usage in component
function MyComponent() {
useLogger({
colorize: true
});
return <div>Component with logging</div>;
}
Only the console.text() method sends logs to the remote server. Other console methods are enhanced but only output locally.
// Configure with remote endpoint
const ConsoleIQ = createConsoleIQ({
apiKey: 'your-api-key'
});
// This will be sent to the remote server
console.text('Important information to log remotely');
// These will only appear in the local console
console.log('Local log message');
console.info('Local info message');
const { ConsoleIQ } = require('consoleIQ');
// Create instance without auto-initialization
const logger = new ConsoleIQ({
colorize: true,
});
// Initialize when ready
logger.init();
// Use enhanced console
console.log('Console is now enhanced');
// Restore when done
logger.restore();
createConsoleIQ(config)Creates and initializes a new ConsoleIQ instance.
