lme

console.log ging done right, beautifully.

You don't have to write the 13 char long console.log() anymore. Try:

lme.d("hello world");

Why lme ( logme )

• Simpler to use than console.log() or even console.log(chalk.red("hi"));
• Draw lines with just a single function, lme.line().
• Automatically expands objects and arrays. So that, you don't have to use JSON.stringify() anymore.
• Clean and semantically focused.
• Actively maintained.
• Consistent design for errors, warnings, successes etc.

Install

npm install --save lme

Usage

Syntax

lme.<status>(message);

Example

const lme = require('lme');

lme.d("my kitty is pinky!"); // default style, used for anonymous outputs.
lme.e("Snap! something went wrong."); // used for logging errors.
lme.s("Oh yeah!"); // used for logging success.
lme.w("Attention! Thank you for your attention."); // used for logging warnings.

lme.line() // used to draw lines
lme.eline() // used to draw lines in error theme.
lme.sline() // used to draw lines in success theme.

APIs

Syntax : lme.<status>(message);

• where <status> can have the following values:

status	name	when to use	example
d	default	default output	lme.d("hi");
s	success	on success output	lme.s("hi");
e	error	on error-ed output	lme.e("hi");
w	warning	for warnings like output	lme.w("hi");
h	highlight	for highlighting an output	lme.h("hi");

where message can be string / float / int / objects. (note that javascript treats arrays as objects.)

Drawing lines with lme.line()

Syntax : lme.line(character, length).

You can prefix d, s, e, w, h to the line() function to obtain the corresponding color scheme for your line. You can also simply use lme.line() which has some default values as described below.

Argument List

argument	type	purpose	default value
character	string	determines which character should be used for drawing lines	-
length	integer	length of the line	30

Examples

lme.line();
lme.eline("^");
lme.sline("@", 12);
lme.wline("#", 50);

APIs for drawing lines

status	name	when to use	example
line	default	default output	lme.line();
dline	same as line	default output	lme.d("hi");
sline	successe	on success output	lme.s("hi");
eline	error	on error-ed output	lme.e("hi");
wline	warning	for warnings like output	lme.w("hi");
hline	highlight	for highlighting an output	lme.h("hi");

More configurations are on its way.
