qlt

qlt

Quick and lightweight logging tool for node.js. Free yourelf from writing console.log all the time!

var how_is_it = 'awesome';
('Wow, this is ' + how_is_it).logn;

Wow, this is awesome!

It's a cleaner and faster way to display output from your app.

Great! How can i use it?

All datatypes (not only strings!) are provided with two new properties:

• log (prints value to stdout)
• logn (prints value and newline to stdout)

Changing .log property of object prototype collides with console.log, so objects use .print instead of .log. .logn is the same for all.

Install

npm install qlt

Example

There's no need to assign this module to a variable. Just require it and you're good to go!

require('qlt');
var a = 5;
var b = 'a';
var c = [1,2];
var d = true;
var e = {
    a:5,
    b:6
};
var f = new Date();


a.log;
b.logn;
c.log;
d.logn;
e.logn;
e.print; //e is an object!
f.logn;
('How convinient! This is a: ' + a + ', and this is c: ' + c).log;

Outputs:

5a
[1,2]true
{ a: 5, b: 6 }
{ a: 5, b: 6 }Mon Mar 31 2014 21:11:31 GMT+0200 (CEST)
