Installation

• Add to another project as a submodule using the instructions here if not done so already.
• From the Node-Logger submodule:
  • In the config folder:
    • Copy/rename config_template.json to config.json and fill in appropriate settings.
  • In the root folder:
    • Run npm install to install required packages.
    • Run/edit test.js to make sure that all connections are good to go.

Usage

• Import after all other submodules but before any program code:

    var _path = require('path');
  
    // import other submodules first
  
    var _logger = require(_path.resolve(__dirname, 'Node-Logger', 'app.js'));
  
    // rest of program code goes here

• _logger.MethodName.Async(...); to log fire-and-forget events.
• [await] _logger.MethodName.Sync(...).then(...).catch(...); to log events that must be synchronous.
• It can also be wrapped in an anonymous async function for certain uses (like inside of another callback, shown here)

  function myFunction(callback(value) => {
    // some callback code
  
    (async () => {
      // [await] _logger.MethodName.Sync(...).then(...).catch(...);
  
      // more code to be called once logging is done
    })();
  });
