Log Lite

A very simple, tiered console logging module. When you specify a level, LogLite will include all levels/tiers that are below that level.

Levels

log - (default) This is the basic log level for things like "Server is listening..."
info - For more detailed log messages.
warn - These should be cautionary messages.
error - Uhoh, something broke.
debug - The most detailed and obnoxious message you can think of.

Example

/* myscript.js
 */

var LogLite = require('log-lite');
var ll = new LogLite();

ll.log('Starting...');

ll.debug('the script is about to do stuff!!!');
// do some stuff
ll.debug('the script is still doing stuff!!!');
// do some more stuff and wrap it up
ll.debug('the script did some stuff!!!');

ll.log('Done.');

$ node ./myscript.js /* stdout =>
[09:20:00] Starting...
[09:20:00] Done.
*/

$ LOG_LEVEL=info node ./myscript.js /* stdout =>
[09:21:00] Starting...
[09:21:00] Done.
*/

$ LOG_LEVEL=debug node ./myscript.js /* stdout =>
[09:21:00] Starting...
[09:21:00] the script is about to do stuff!!!
[09:21:00] the script is still doing stuff!!!
[09:21:00] the script did some stuff!!!
[09:21:00] Done.
