Basic-Logger

============

Basic logger for nodejs supporting error, warning, info, debug and trace messages with (or without) timestamp.

Everything you log is printed to the console.

Installation

------------

	npm install basic-logger

Usage

-----

	var Logger = require('basic-logger');

	// configure level one time, it will be set to every instance of the logger

	Logger.setLevel('warning'); // only warnings and errors will be shown

	Logger.setLevel('warning', true); // only warnings and errors will be shown and no message about the level change will be printed

	var customConfig = {

		showMillis: true;

		showTimestamp: true;

	};

	var log = new Logger(customConfig) // custom config parameters will be used, defaults will be used for the other parameters

	log.error('An error occurred');

	log.warn('I am not kidding!');

	log.info('you just screwed this');

	log.debug('this code is still alive...');

	log.trace('we are here.');

	

Config options

--------------

* `showTimestamp` - Show the timestamp with every message.

* `showMillis` - Show milliseconds in the timestamp.

* `printObjFunc` - The function to apply objects to, if logged. Default is util.inspect.

* `prefix` - String that is prepended to every message logged with this instance.
