log.level

Method Signature

log.level

Type: Property Read / Write

Set: Assign a string log level name.

log.level = 'debug'

Get: Returns the current logging level string name.

const currentLevel = log.level

Example:

const log = new Perj(options)
if (log.level === 'info') {
  log.level = 'debug'
}

Description

The log.level property enables you to see the current logging level of the logger object and set the logging level of the logger object.

One way you can use this option is to turn up the logging level for a module you are trying to debug by using a log.child logger. Set the logging level on the child to something like 'trace' while the other loggers in your application are set to 'warn'.

See the level and levels option documents for more detail.

Examples

Here is a simple example of using the log.level property:

import Perj from 'perj'
const log = new Perj()

console.log(log.level)
// console output: 'info'

log.info('information')
// stdout: {"level":"info","lvl":30,"time":1526276932034,"msg":"information","data":""}

log.level = 'warn'
// logging level changed to 'warn'

log.info('information')
// no output
