ember-cli-remote-logger

ember-cli-remote-logger

Gives your ember-cli app remote logging capabilities.

Installation

ember install ember-cli-remote-logger
ember install ember-network

Usage

This addon will look up your application adapter and use it to build a request to send the log entries with. Your adapter's host, namespace, and headers are included in the request. In addition to your adapter's headers a Content-Type of text/plain is added and the body of the request is, accordingly, plain text. The request is sent using ember-network/fetch, so it's FastBoot compatible.

So, for example, if your adapter's host is https://www.example.com and your namespace is api/v1 then log entries will be sent via POST to https://www.example.com/api/v1/log.

Once your server is ready to accept requests you can use the logger thusly:

export default Ember.Component.extend({
  remoteLogger: Ember.inject.service(),

  actions: {
    coolAction() {
      remoteLogger.debug('Sweet log entry', ['OPTIONAL', 'TAGS']);
    }
  }
});

This results in a log entry that looks like this:

[DEBUG][OPTIONAL][TAGS] Sweet log entry

There are three more log levels in addition to debug: info, warn, and error.

The log methods return a promise and resolve/reject according to whether an ok response was received from the server or not. I'm not sure that I would recommend waiting for log requests to resolve from a UX point of view, but it's there in case you need it.

FastBoot

fetch requires a full URL, including the protocol. This means you need to either define the url property on your application adapter or override the url property on the remote-logger service:

import RemoteLogger from 'ember-cli-remote-logger/services/remote-logger';

export default RemoteLogger.extend({
  url: 'https://www.example.com/sweet/url'
});
