console-with-location

Drop-in replacement for Node.js console.* that adds colour and caller location to every log line.

import 'console-with-location';   // ← that’s it

console.log('hello');             // cyan text + “  at /full/path/file.js:7”
console.error({oops: true});      // red text + same grey suffix

Install

npm install console-with-location

Usage

Just import (or require) once before any other code:

ESM

import 'console-with-location';

CommonJS

require('console-with-location');

After that every call to console.log, .info, .warn, .error, .debug (and all the other methods) will:

• colour string arguments only (objects and other values will be colored with util.inspect)
• append a grey line such as at /home/you/project/src/index.js:42

No colors are applied for non-TTY streams and if 'NO_COLOR' or 'CI' environment variables are set.

Colour rules

| method | color | |---------|---------| | log | cyan | | info | green | | debug | yellow | | error | red | | warn | orange |

Disable colours at any time:

NO_COLOR=1 node index.js
