Intercepts stdout/ stderr.

Implementation

This module uses domain to capture asyncrhonous function output.

Read Capturing stdout/ stderr in Node.js using Domain module.

Usage

import {
  createOutputInterceptor
} from 'output-interceptor';

const interceptOutput = createOutputInterceptor();

const main = async () => {
  const result = await interceptOutput(() => {
    console.log('foo');
    console.error('bar');

    return Promise.resolve('baz');
  });

  result === 'baz';

  interceptOutput.output === 'foo\nbar\n';
};

main();
