Registration & API Key

• Register at App Tracker and create an application to get your API key.

Quick Start

import { AppTracker, AppTrackerService } from "app-tracker";

const config = {
	userAgentOrOs: typeof window !== 'undefined' ? navigator.userAgent : require('os'),
	logInConsole: true,
	sendLogsInDevelopment: true,
	// more options below
};
const tracker: AppTrackerService = AppTracker.init("API_KEY", config);

tracker.debug("Debug message", { foo: "bar" });
tracker.error("An error occurred", errorObj);

Configuration

| Property | Type | Default | Description | |-----------------------------|--------------|--------------------------------|-------------| | sendLogsInDevelopment | boolean | false | Send logs during development | | logInConsole | boolean | false | Also log to the console | | endpointUrl | string | https://app-tracker-api.azurewebsites.net/ | Target endpoint for logs | | maxSendTries | number | 5 | Max. send attempts on error | | maxLogsCount | number | 10 | Batch size for sending logs | | logLevel | LogType[] | [LogType.error] | Which log types are sent | | sendLogsByTypesImmediately | LogType[] | [LogType.error, LogType.critical] | Types sent immediately | | userAgentOrOs | any | | Browser: navigator.userAgent, Node: require('os') |

Architecture & Features

• Singleton Service: Always access via AppTracker.init() or AppTracker.getService()
• Batching: Logs are collected and sent after maxLogsCount or immediately for critical errors
• Environment Awareness: Automatically adapts for browser/Node.js
• Secure Sending: API key required, retry mechanism on errors
• External Dependency: Uses cross-fetch for HTTP requests

Build & Development

• Build: npm run build (TypeScript compile & copy to lib/)
• Minify: npm run terser (Terser minification of JS files)
• Lint: npm run lint (TSLint)
• Format: npm run format (Prettier)
