Screamer

Let's face it, we use console.log more than we would like to admit.

Use this tiny helper to ease the pain of finding an output in a sea of text.

npm install screamer --save-dev

Basic use

const screamer = require('screamer')
screamer.scream('Bob', 'Name')

Output:

-------------------------------------------------------
    .-.                                              1 
  ((o,O))
   \\O//                      Name                     
    )V(   
-------------------------------------------------------
Bob
-------------------------------------------------------

Global setup

const screamer = require('screamer')
screamer.setup({ global: true })
scream('Bob', 'Name')

Custom log

const screamer = require('screamer')
screamer.setup({
    logger: (what, label) => {
        // ...
    }
})
scream('Bob', 'Name')

Other examples:

const screamer = require('screamer')
screamer.setup({ global: true })
scream('Bob', 'Name')
scream(45, 'Age')
scream([3,4,5,6], 'Numbers')
scream({ name: 'Bob', age: 45}, 'Object')
screamify({ name: 'Bob', age: 45}, 'JSON.stringify')

const circularReference = {
  works: 'yeah!'
};
circularReference.myself = circularReference;

// Serializing circular references throws "TypeError: cyclic object value"
scream(circularReference, 'Circular')
