# Angular Logger

Application example built with [Angular](https://angular.io/) 15 and adding the log component using the [ngx-logger](https://www.npmjs.com/package/ngx-logger) library.

This tutorial was posted on my [blog](https://rodrigo.kamada.com.br/blog/adicionando-o-componente-de-log-em-uma-aplicacao-angular) in portuguese and on the [DEV Community](https://dev.to/rodrigokamada/adding-the-log-component-to-an-angular-application-49f9) in english.

## Prerequisites

Before you start, you need to install and configure the tools:

* [git](https://git-scm.com/)
* [Node.js and npm](https://nodejs.org/)
* [Angular CLI](https://angular.io/cli)
* IDE (e.g. [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/))

## Getting started

### Create the Angular application

**1.** Let's create the application with the Angular base structure using the `@angular/cli` with the route file and the SCSS style format.

```shell
ng new angular-logger

✔ Packages installed successfully.
```

**2.** Install and configure the Bootstrap CSS framework. Do steps 2 and 3 of the post *[Adding the Bootstrap CSS framework to an Angular application](https://github.com/rodrigokamada/angular-bootstrap)*.

**3.** Configure the log settings in the `src/environments/environment.ts` and `src/environments/environment.prod.ts` files as below.

```typescript
logger: {
level: 'TRACE',
},
```

**4.** Install the `ngx-logger` library.

```shell
npm install ngx-logger
```

**5.** Import the `HttpClientModule` and `LoggerModule` modules. Configure the log settings. Change the `app.module.ts` file and add the lines as below.

```typescript
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';
import { LoggerModule, NgxLoggerLevel } from 'ngx-logger';

import { environment } from '../environments/environment';

const environmentConfig: any = environment.logger;

imports: [
BrowserModule,
HttpClientModule,
LoggerModule.forRoot({
level: NgxLoggerLevel[environmentConfig.level],
serverLogLevel: NgxLoggerLevel[environmentConfig.serverLevel],
serverLoggingUrl: environmentConfig.serverUrl,
} as any),
AppRoutingModule,
],
```

**6.** Remove the contents of the `AppComponent` class from the `src/app/app.component.ts` file. Import the `NGXLogger` service and create the log levels methods as below.

```typescript
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { NGXLogger } from 'ngx-logger';

@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
templateUrl: './app.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
})
export class AppComponent {

constructor(private logger: NGXLogger) {
}

public showTrace(): void {
this.logger.trace('TRACE level');
}

public showDebug(): void {
this.logger.debug('DEBUG level');
}

public showInfo(): void {
this.logger.info('INFO level');
}

public showWarn(): void {
this.logger.warn('WARN level');
}

public showError(): void {
this.logger.error('ERROR level');
}

public showFatal(): void {
this.logger.fatal('FATAL level');
}

}
```

**7.** Remove the contents of the `src/app/app.component.html` file. Add the log levels buttons as below.

```html


Angular Logger



Trace
Debug
Info
Warn
Error
Fatal


Note:
See the messages displayed in the browser console.



```

**8.** Run the application with the command below.

```shell
npm start

> [email protected] start
> ng serve

✔ Browser application bundle generation complete.
