v0.5.0

Features

• Loosens typings of logger methods like info, debug, etc.
  • The methods now accept multiple arguments.
  • Passed arguments can have any type instead of only accepting a string.
• Added a args: unknown[] property to LogRecord.
  • Property contains all arguments passed to a logger.
  • The message property contains all arguments formatted to a string. Multiple arguments are separated by a space.

Examples:

logger.info({ key1: "value", key2: 123 })  // => "{"key1":"value",key2:123}"
logger.verbose("Hello", "World") // => "Hello Word"
logger.debug([1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]) // => "[1,2,3] [4,5,6]" 
logger.warn((a,b) => a+b) // => "[Function (anonymous)]"

Documentation

• Changes issue badge to show the open issues instead of all issues.

Internal

• Removes auto mock clearing in jest.
• Upgraded dev-dependencies.

v0.4.1

Fixes

• Fix bad auto-imports in VSCode (hopefully)
  • I noticied bad auto imports in vscode when using this library. Code tries to import from "logging-library/lib/types" and not "logging-library".

Internal

• Updates dev dependencies.

v0.4.0

Features

• ConsoleHandler.toggle now returns the resulting active state as a boolean (true == console outputs active).
  • This should make it easier to persist the toggle state so it can be restored after a browser refresh.

Documentation

• The example folder contains an example for colored output using chalk.

v0.3.1

Fixes

• Logger passed different record objects to each handler. The handlers now receive the same record object.
  • This wasn't a really big deal but in theory it means that the timestamp would be slightly different for each handler. It is definitely better to have a record, stored at different locations, use the same timestamp.

Internal

• Upgraded dev-dependencies. This also solved any npm audit warnings.

v0.3.0

Features

• Handler can log only for specific levels. (#5)
• Add custom metadata to a logger with is passed to all handlers (#7)
• Renamed log level trace to verbose.
  • This change better reflects the purpose of this level.

Internal

• Changed trigger for publish workflow. It should hopefully work with drafted released now.
• Pre-commit hook now runs tests for all changed files
• Changed all .toEqual() test asserts to .toStrictEqual()

v0.2.0

Features

• ConsoleHandler now accepts a custom format function which is applied to every record logged to the console. (#2)
  • Added optional options argument in the constructor of ConsoleHandler.
    • Options contain a key for a custom format function.
• Renamed ILogRecord.msg to ILogRecord.message.
• Changed ConsoleHandler default format to: LEVEL: [context] - message
  • This should be more useful in a browser enviromnent where timestamps can also be displayed in the dev console.
• Added ILogRecord.levelName which is a readable name of ILogRecord.level.

Internal

• More documentation in the README
• Added eslint for code linting
• Updated CI workflow to perform a lint check

v0.1.2

Fixes

• package.json now contains the right repository link
• Updates to the README
• Remove type declarations for test files from the bundle (#1)

Internal

• Exports in index.ts are now explicit. Prevents accidental exports in the future.
• Typedoc only shows types for constructs that are actually exported by the library now.

v0.1.1

Fixes

• Fix description in package.json.
• Add homepage with link to typedocs in package.json.
