server-logger's Introduction

ServerLogger

A basic Dart language server-side logging helper. Includes a timestamp prefix in the output, and can be switched on or off programmatically. For client-side logging like this, please try out my Logger package.

Calling:

ServerLogger.log('Hello, world!');

will appear in the console as:

[20XX-4-25 4:00:33.875] Hello, world!

Getting Started

Follow these layouts for your server-side Dart project.

pubspec.yaml - Add the dependency.

    git: git://github.com/bwhite000/server_logger.git

main.dart - Begin logging!

import "package:server_logger/server_logger.dart" as ServerLogger;

void main() {
  // Logs - regular style
  ServerLogger.log('This is a basic log.');  // Strings,
  ServerLogger.log({"name": "Jerry"});       // Maps,
  ServerLogger.log(new DateTime.now());      // Objects, etc.

  // Errors - red console output
  ServerLogger.error('Something broke!');

  // Warnings - yellow console text
  ServerLogger.warn('The JSON response was missing a parameter.');

  // Info - blue console text
