winston-browser-logging

"Because even the client deserves a great logger"

Installation

meteor add clinical:winston-browser-logging
meteor add infinitedg:winston

Usage

winston-client pushes a simplified winston object down to the client that logs messages to the console and sends them up to the server as well. winston-client supports the default Winston.config.cli levels:

Winston.silly("Silly!");
Winston.input("Very verbose");
Winston.verbose("Just a little wordy");
Winston.prompt("Not as many words");
Winston.debug("Good for a coder");
Winston.info("The standard logging level in winston");
Winston.data("More important than info")
Winston.help("Something needs help");
Winston.warn("Something might be broken");
Winston.error("Something is broken!!");

In addition to these methods, the raw Winston.log method is meant to behave similarly to Winston.log on the server:

// Basic logging
Winston.log('info', 'Hello distributed log files!');
Winston.info('Hello again distributed logs');

// Logging with metadata
Winston.log('info', 'Test Log Message', { anything: 'This is metadata' });

// String interpolation
Winston.log('info', 'test message', 'first', 'second', {number: 123});
// info:    info test message first second
// meta = {"number":123}

Log messages are sent back to the server via Meteor.call('winston-log) for processing via winston.log(). Use winston-airbrake or winston-loggly to make the most of winston on your client!

To limit the messages that are logged to the user's console:

Winston.transports.MeteorClient.level = 'info'; // Or any other transport level you like.

Kudos to @brentjanderson for the initial concept of this package. Forking to make it more specific for clinical/healthcare needs.
