Etholog

A simple logging library designed to be compatible with various JavaScript runtimes, such as Node.js, React Native and the browser.

Etholog is named after ethology, the study of animal behavior under natural conditions.

Installation

npm install etholog

Basic usage

Etholog works with "transports", these can be seen as destinations for the logs. It requires one transport at the minimum. You can use one of the built-in transports or create your own.

import { createLogger } from "etholog";

const logger = createLogger({
  transports: [
    consoleTransport(),
  ],
});

logger.info("Hello world!");

Levels

Etholog supports the following log levels:

• error
• warn
• info
• debug

Transports

Etholog comes with one built-in transport, the consoleTransport. There are various additional transports available as separate packages.

| Package | Description | | --- | --- | | @etholog/sentry-react-native-transport | Send logs to Sentry for React Native | | @etholog/async-storage-transport | Stores logs in asynchronous storage, such as AsyncStorage for React Native | | @etholog/sync-storage-transport | Stores logs in synchronous storage, such as localStorage |

Creating a custom transport

You can create your own transport by using the createTransport function.

import { createTransport } from "etholog";

const customTransport = createTransport((log) => {
  // Do something with the log
});

const logger = createLogger({
  transports: [customTransport],
});
