Usage

API

This library provide a debug function.

This debug function output to console if DEBUG MODE is enabled.

import { debug } from "@deps/debug";

debug("log text"):
// => Output to console: "log text"

Tips 💡

@deps/debug also provide debug function as debugLog. debugLog is a just alias to debug function.

You can use debugLog to avoid conflict naming with Node.js's utils, visionmedia/debug, or other modules.

import { debugLog } from "@deps/debug";

debugLog("log text"):
// => Output to console: "log text"

Enable DEBUG MODE

debug accept following values as DEBUG.

• *: Enable all debug log
• prefix:* Enable debug log that start with prefix:
• -prefix:* Disable debug log that start with prefix:

Also, debug accept Multiple values as DEBUG. The values should be separated by ,.

a,b,c

Node.js

Enable DEBUG MODE by Environment Variables.

DEBUG=*
DEBUG=prefix:*
DEBUG=-prefix:*
DEBUG=-p1,p2,p3

Notes: Node.js add file name as prefix automatically.

When you specify DEBUG=*/your-file.js, this library output log that file name is your-file.js.

// src/your-file.js
import { debug } from "@deps/debug";

debug("log text"):
// => "src/your-file.js: log text"
debug("log text");
// => No output

Browser

Enable DEBUG MODE by localStorage API.

localStorage.debug = '*';
localStorage.debug = 'prefix:*'
localStorage.debug = '-prefix:*'
localStorage.debug = 'p1,p2,p3'

Force disable logging

DEBUG_CONTROLLER is shared value of the debug module.

import { DEBUG_CONTROLLER } from "@deps/debug"
// Stop logging
DEBUG_CONTROLLER.disable();
// Start logging(by default)
DEBUG_CONTROLLER.enable();

Also you can force enable. This ignore -prefix pattern.

import { DEBUG_CONTROLLER } from "@deps/debug"
DEBUG_CONTROLLER.forceEnable();
