debugpp

A namespaced logging package with semantical subspaces (log, warn, error)

This package augments [debug]{@link https://www.npmjs.com/package/debug} nodejs package

Installation

node

npm install debugpp --save

browser

bower install debugpp --save

Features

• dot-namespacing
• semantic subspaces support
  • log, warn, error, ...
• supports both node and browser environment

Example

var debug = debug.extended('cw.tabs.TabsController');

var contextName = "collabo";
var tabs = ['http://www.CollaboScience.com', 'http://www.KnAllEdge.org', 'http://www.CollaboArte.com'];
if(!error) debug.log("[loadContexts] context '%s' loaded: %d", contextName, tabs.length);
else debug.error("[loadContexts] context '%s' are not loaded, error: ", contextName, error);

Please check documentation for detailed documentation and basic examples.

For more detailed and complex examples, please check the test folder in the repository

Using localStorage

In order to preserve debugging settings you can store them in the localStorage:

localStorage.debug = '*';

or

localStorage.debug = 'cw.tabs.TabsController';

Test

npm test

ToDo

• disabling only some of semantic domains (log and warn but not error)
• provide better logging function suplementing, a way toward Winston, bunyan
• provide logging the place where error got triggered, same as with debug (bower install debug)
