Transform-Console

A stream-based logger implemented as a transform to peek into arbitrary parts of complex stream pipelines.

Installation

Node.js

For Node.js, use npm:

npm install transform-console

..then require Transform-Console:

var TransformConsole = require('transform-console');

Quick Example

var myLogger = new TransformConsole({
    objectMode: true,
    console: {
        dataLogger: function(data) {
            console.log('myLogger -', data);
        },
        events: ['finish']
    }
});
 
myLogger.write({val: "testing"});
myLogger.write("testing");
myLogger.write([1, 2, 3]);
 
myLogger.end();

You will see the following logged to your console:

myLogger - { val: "testing" }
myLogger - "testing"
myLogger - [1, 2, 3]
finish
