- Types Support for Intellisense 💡
- JSDoc In Code Documentation - just like any good library, we provide documentation, information and examples for our functions and methods on hover using JSdoc and TS. 🤙🏻
- Config method to create and setup configs for different features ☸
- Customizable Log Size and Information 💪🏻
- 6 Types of Colorful & Pre-formatted Log Methods - to make your life easy while debugging (we all know logs are superior to debuggers 😏 - who uses debugger anyways eww 🤢🤮)
- API Request Logger - You can use the APIReqLogger method as middleware in your Express Setup (or whatever you use) - life made easy to keep an eye on those freaky api calls 😇
- File Logs - Option to save all those API Logs in a file too - gotta catch those Non-NPCs who was trying to mess up the API - But AFTER THE ☕ Break - the file will keep all them logs safe, don't worry we gotchu 🧐
- Super Special Feature - FATAL LOG: If you use this for Fatal Error Cases (HIGH SEVERITY), then you have an option to setup a SendGrid Email ApiKey - and our system will notify you, everytime one of these logs were made! 😉
( Look, we know we all devs are lazy! 😴 No one got time to keep looking at em logs xD Devs gotta sleep every half an hour too 💤 Just gotta check the 📧 in-case 💩 goes 👇🏻)
-
Import: Import the package - Yall know what this stuff is fs
For ECMAScript Module a.k.a ESM -
import * as ultraLogger from "ultralogger";
For CommonJS a.k.a CJS -
const ultraLogger = require("ultralogger");
-
Config: Setup your own config with the config method and pass a config object of type ultraLoggerConfig.
// UltraLogger Configuration // *** TYPESCRIPT *** // Make a Config Object of type ultraLoggerConfig and pass it in the config() const config: ultraLogger.ultraLoggerConfig = { logType: "SHORT", // You can choose any of these 3 - "FULL" or, "DEV" or "SHORT" }; ultraLogger.config(config); // OR, // Call the config method and write the config inside the () ultraLogger.config({ logType: "SHORT", // You can choose any of these 3 - "FULL" or, "DEV" or "SHORT" });
// UltraLogger Configuration // *** JAVASCRIPT *** // Make a Config Object and pass it in the config() const config = { logType: "SHORT", // You can choose any of these 3 - "FULL" or, "DEV" or "SHORT" }; ultraLogger.config(config); // OR, // Call the config method and write the config inside the () ultraLogger.config({ logType: "SHORT", // You can choose any of these 3 - "FULL" or, "DEV" or "SHORT" });
Details about the Config Properties:
CONFIG PROPERTIES TYPES OPTIONAL ? VALUES DEFAULT VALUE logType string
YES "FULL"
or"DEV"
or"SHORT"
"FULL"
writeToFile boolean
YES true
orfalse
false
fileLocation string
YES ex: ./folder_that_exists/ - (as 'writeToFile' is false so this is not set - as it is not needed) fileName string
YES file_name.log - (as 'writeToFile' is false so this is not set - as it is not needed)
-
JSDoc & Types Support: Just hover over the method name that you want to know more about, and you should get the JSDoc info for that method. FOr ex: here we are hovering over the config method because we want some more info:
-
New 6 Types of Colorful Logs for your Daily Coding and Debugging sessions: We are bringing you 6 types of different logs through UltraLogger - which you can use instead of your everyday boring console.log() :
ultraLogger.log("Server is running on port 5000"); ultraLogger.muted("Server is running on port 5000"); ultraLogger.info("Server is running on port 5000"); ultraLogger.warn("Server is running on port 5000"); ultraLogger.error("Server is running on port 5000"); ultraLogger.success("Server is running on port 5000");
Sample Output (with the 'logType' set as "DEV"):
-
Use as Express Middleware to Log Requests Data: You can use it like an express middleware.
// *** TYPESCRIPT *** const app: Application = express(); app.use(ultraLogger.APIReqLogger()); // Sample Output: [ 2023/10/05, 05:31:11 pm ] [ ::ffff:127.0.0.1 ] - [ GET ] - /api : 200 - 3 ms
// *** JAVASCRIPT *** const app = express(); app.use(ultraLogger.APIReqLogger()); // Sample Output: [ 2023/10/05, 05:31:11 pm ] [ ::ffff:127.0.0.1 ] - [ GET ] - /api : 200 - 3 ms
OR,
If you just want to use UltraLogger as your Express API Request Logger - no need to setup the config. You can pass Log Option through the midleware method itself -
// *** TYPESCRIPT *** const app: Application = express(); app.use(ultraLogger.APIReqLogger("FULL")); // Available Options: "FULL", "DEV", "SHORT" // Sample Output: [ 2023/10/05, 05:31:11 pm ] [ ::ffff:127.0.0.1 ] - [ GET ] - /api : 200 - 3 ms
// *** JAVASCRIPT *** const app = express(); app.use(ultraLogger.APIReqLogger("FULL")); // Available Options: "FULL", "DEV", "SHORT" // Sample Output: [ 2023/10/05, 05:31:11 pm ] [ ::ffff:127.0.0.1 ] - [ GET ] - /api : 200 - 3 ms
If / when you use the APIReqLogger method as middleware without passing any values - "FULL" is set as Default Mode. Ex:
app.use(ultraLogger.APIReqLogger()); // We set it as FULL - by Default // Sample Output: [ 2023/10/05, 05:31:11 pm ] [ ::ffff:127.0.0.1 ] - [ GET ] - /api : 200 - 3 ms
Sample Output Screenshot:
Or use "DEV" as option,
app.use(ultraLogger.APIReqLogger("DEV")); // Sample Output: [ 2023/10/05, 05:31:10 pm ] [ GET ] - /api : 200 - 8 ms
Sample Output Screenshot:
Or use "SHORT" as option,
app.use(ultraLogger.APIReqLogger("SHORT")); // Sample Output: [ GET ] - /api : 200 - 2 ms
-
Log API Requests Data on File too - along with logging the API Requests Data, you can log them in a file and save it too if you need it!
- Setup the Config Properly with the keys and voila
- Yes, we have Typescript Support so your VSCode will provide you all the juicy auto suggestion 😉
Ex:
// *** TYPESCRIPT *** // UltraLogger Configuration const config: ultraLogger.ultraLoggerConfig = { logType: "DEV", writeToFile: true, fileLocation: "./", fileName: "UltraLogger.log", }; ultraLogger.config(config);
// ***JAVASCRIPT *** // UltraLogger Configuration const config = { logType: "DEV", writeToFile: true, fileLocation: "./", fileName: "UltraLogger.log", }; ultraLogger.config(config);
Or, you can directly create and pass the Config Object while calling the config(). Ex:
// Same for both Typescript & Javascript ultraLogger.config({ logType: "DEV", writeToFile: true, fileLocation: "./", fileName: "UltraLogger.log", });
