Using YARN:

Usage

Logitt provides a straightforward logger and an easy-to-use interface for viewing logs. Here's how to get started:

• Configuration: Set up your environment variables before using the library.

• Development Mode: By default, Logitt operates in "development" mode, displaying all logs in the console using Consola

• Production Mode: To save logs to files (stored in the "/logs" folder), update your environment variables as follows:

1NODE_ENV="production"

1. Instantiate

Logitt employs the Singleton design pattern. You can configure the logger by changing the URL of the UI Explorer or by enabling/disabling tracing.

1const { Logitt } = require("logitt");
2
3// Default configuration options
4const options = {
5  // Enable tracing to identify the source of the log
6  trace: true,
7  // Set the URL path for the UI Explorer
8  route: "/logs",
9};
10
11// Create a new instance with custom options, if not already created
12const loggy = Logitt.getLogger(options);
13
14// Create a new instance with default options
15const loggy = Logitt.getLogger();

2. Logging

Logitt provides 4 logging levels: SUCCESS, DEBUG, WARNING, and ERROR.

• SUCCESS: Always logs to the console, regardless of the environment.
• DEBUG: For detailed debugging information.
• WARNING: For warning messages.
• ERROR: For error messages.

Here's how to use them:

1loggy.warn("Warning occured here");
2loggy.error("Error occured here");
3loggy.debug("Debug occured here");
4loggy.success("Success occured here");
5
6// You can also log directly using the singleton instance
7// Logitt.getLogger().warn("Warning occured here")

To include additional context or metadata with your logs:

1loggy.error("Unable to create a new user", {
2  name: "John Doe",
3  email: "user@exmaple.com",
4  phone: null,
5});

3. UI Explorer

To access the UI Explorer and view your logs, you need to set your credentials as environment variables:

1LOGITT_USERNAME=your_username
2LOGITT_PASSWORD=your_password

3.1. No Framework

1const { Logitt } = require("logitt");
2const http = require("http");
3
4const loggy = Logitt.getLogger();
5
6http.createServer(loggy.render).listen(PORT, () => {
7  consola.start(`Server is running on port ${PORT} ...\n`);
8});

3.2. ExpressJS

1const { Logitt } = require("logitt");
2const express = require("express");
3
4const app = express();
5
6app.get("/logs", Logitt.getLogger().render);
7
8// Custom URL
9app.get("/my-logs", Logitt.getLogger({ route: "/my-logs" }).render);

3.3. NestJS

1import { Controller, Get, Req, Res } from "@nestjs/common";
2import { Request, Response } from "express";
3import { Logitt } from "logitt";
4
5@Controller()
6export class AppController {
7  constructor() {}
8
9  @Get("/logs")
10  getLogs(@Req() req: Request, @Res() res: Response) {
11    let logitt = Logitt.getLogger();
12    logitt.render(req, res);
13  }
14
15  // Custom URL
16  @Get("/my-logs")
17  getLogs(@Req() req: Request, @Res() res: Response) {
18    let logitt = Logitt.getLogger({ route: "/my-logs" });
19    logitt.render(req, res);
20  }
21}
