A tiny log console to display information while using your iOS app. Written in Swift 3.

Usage

Create a TinyConsoleController-Instance and pass your App-ViewController as a rootViewController parameter.

TinyConsoleController(rootViewController: MyMainViewController())

Actions

// Print message
TinyConsole.print("hello")

// Print messages any color you want 
TinyConsole.print("green text", color: UIColor.green)

Implementation Example

Instead of

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
    window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
    window?.rootViewController = MainViewController()
    window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
    return true
}

write

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
    window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
    window?.rootViewController = TinyConsoleController(rootViewController: MainViewController())
    window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
