Typescript logger class












2














Looking for a critique of this simple logger class I'm working on in my transition to TypeScript.



The purpose of the logging class is to just print to a console either info, warn or error messages.



The main things I'm after feedback on are my usage of the TypeScript type system. I.e interfaces/types/whatever else could be done different or better.



interface LoggerConfig {
prefix?: string;
prefixColor?: TextColor.White;
displayConsole?: boolean;
outputExternal?: boolean;
}

type LogFn = (msg: string) => void;

interface Log {
config: LoggerConfig;
log: (msg: string, logColor: TextColor, override?: LoggerConfig) => void;
info: LogFn;
warn: LogFn;
error: LogFn;
}

class Logger implements Log {
config: LoggerConfig = {
prefix: 'console :: ',
prefixColor: TextColor.Green,
displayConsole: false,
outputExternal: false,
};

constructor(userConfig: LoggerConfig = {}) {
this.config = {...this.config, ...userConfig};
}

log(msg: string, logColor: TextColor, override?: LoggerConfig) {
const config = override ? {...this.config, ...override} : this.config;
const {displayConsole, outputExternal, prefix, prefixColor} = config;

if (displayConsole) {
showConsole();
}

if (outputExternal) {
external.printToConsole(`${prefix} ${msg}`);
}

print(prefixColor + prefix + logColor + ' ' + msg);
}

info(msg: string) {
this.log(msg, TextColor.White);
}

warn(msg: string) {
this.log(msg, TextColor.Yellow, {displayConsole: true});
}

error(msg: string) {
this.log(msg, TextColor.Red, {displayConsole: true, outputExternal: true});
}
}

const logger = new Logger({prefix: 'testLogger :: '})
