#Ledger

Ledger is an event based NodeJS module used for logging to various locations.

By default Ledger can overwrite `console.log`, `console.info`, `console.warn` and `console.error` to allow all output, even output from other modules.

##Installation:

```

npm install ledger

```

    

##Usage:

```

//this will output all messages to the file "my/file.log"

var ledger = (require('ledger');

var logger = ledger.createLogger( {}, [

    new ledger.transactions.file( { logFile: 'my/file.log' } ),

]);

 

ledger.on('log::error', function(time, msg){

    //do something special with errors

});

  

ledger.on('log::*', function(time, msg){

     //log catchall

});

    

console.log('log');

console.info('info');

console.warn('warn');

console.error('error');

```

    

##Options:

* `separator`: String //separator used when building messages, Default: ' > '

* `timeFormatter`: Function(date) //function used when formatting Date object to a string, Default: function(date){ return date.toString(); }

##Methods:

* `log(msg)` //mapped to console.log

* `info(msg)` //mapped to console.info

* `warn(msg)` //mapped to console.warn

* `error(msg)` //mapped to console.error

* `now()` //get the current time using timeFormatter setting

* `_log(msg,parts)` // raw logging, do not use    

##Events:

* `log::log`: (time, msg) //event that gets called after a call to console.log

* `log::info`: (time, msg) //event that gets called after a call to console.info

* `log::warn`: (time, msg) //event that gets called after a call to console.warn

* `log::error`: (time, msg) //event that gets called after a call to console.error
