Server: server example

Client: client example

Installation:

meteor add ostrio:logger # If not yet installed
meteor add ostrio:loggerconsole

ES6 Import:

import { Logger } from 'meteor/ostrio:logger';
import { LoggerConsole } from 'meteor/ostrio:loggerconsole';

Usage

Initialize LoggerConsole instance passing LoggerInstance as a first argument into constructor to enable logging into the console.

Initialization [Isomorphic]

new LoggerConsole(LoggerInstance, settings)

  • LoggerInstance {Logger} - from new Logger()
  • settings {Object}
  • settings.highlight {Boolean} - Enable/Disable color highlighting; By default: true
  • settings.format {Function} - This function must return String. Arguments:
    • opts {Object}
    • opts.userId {String}
    • opts.time {Date} - Report date
    • opts.level {String} - Message level, one of: ERROR, FATAL, WARN, DEBUG, INFO, TRACE, LOG, *
    • opts.message {String} - Report message
    • opts.data {Object} - Additional info passed as object

Example: [Isomorphic]

import { Logger } from 'meteor/ostrio:logger';
import { LoggerConsole } from 'meteor/ostrio:loggerconsole';

// Initialize Logger:
const log = new Logger();
// Initialize and enable LoggerConsole with default settings:
(new LoggerConsole(log)).enable();

// Initialize and enable LoggerConsole with custom formatting:
(new LoggerConsole(log, {
  format(opts) {
    return ((Meteor.isServer) ? '[SERVER]' : '[CLIENT]') + ' [' + opts.level + '] - ' + opts.message;
  }
})).enable();

Activate with custom adapter settings: [Isomorphic]

import { Logger } from 'meteor/ostrio:logger';
import { LoggerConsole } from 'meteor/ostrio:loggerconsole';

const log = new Logger();
(new LoggerConsole(log)).enable({
  enable: true,
  filter: ['ERROR', 'FATAL', 'WARN'], /* Filters: 'ERROR', 'FATAL', 'WARN', 'DEBUG', 'INFO', 'TRACE', '*' */
  client: true, // Set to `false` to avoid log transfer from Client to Server
  server: true  // Set to `false` to disallow execution on Server
});

Log message: [Isomorphic]

import { Logger } from 'meteor/ostrio:logger';
import { LoggerConsole } from 'meteor/ostrio:loggerconsole';

const log = new Logger();
(new LoggerConsole(log)).enable();

/*
  message {String} - Any text message
  data    {Object} - [optional] Any additional info as object
  userId  {String} - [optional] Current user id
 */
log.info(message, data, userId);
log.debug(message, data, userId);
log.error(message, data, userId);
log.fatal(message, data, userId);
log.warn(message, data, userId);
log.trace(message, data, userId);
log._(message, data, userId); // Shortcut

// Use with throw
throw log.error(message, data, usmerId);

Catch-all Client's errors example: [Client]

/* Store original window.onerror */
const _GlobalErrorHandler = window.onerror;

window.onerror = function (msg, url, line) {
  log.error(msg, {file: url, onLine: line});
  if (_GlobalErrorHandler) {
    _GlobalErrorHandler.apply(this, arguments);
  }
};

Catch-all Server's errors example: [Server]

const bound = Meteor.bindEnvironment((callback) => {callback();});
process.on('uncaughtException', function (err) {
  bound(() => {
    log.error('Server Crashed!', err);
    console.error(err.stack);
    process.exit(7);
  });
});

Catch-all Meteor's errors example: [Server]

// store original Meteor error
const originalMeteorDebug = Meteor._debug;
Meteor._debug = function (message, stack) {
  const error = new Error(message);
  error.stack = stack;
  log.error('Meteor Error!', error);
  return originalMeteorDebug.apply(this, arguments);
};

Use multiple logger(s) with different settings: [Isomorphic]

const log1 = new Logger();
const log2 = new Logger();

(new LoggerConsole(log1)).enable({
  filter: ['*'],
  client: true,
  server: true
});

(new LoggerConsole(log2)).enable({
  filter: ['ERROR', 'FATAL'],
  client: true,
  server: true
});
