Postlog

A library for sending console logs over XHR for server-side processing.

Postlog sends all your browsers logging activities to your server side for storage and analytics.

Install

npm install postlog

Usage

Basic

var post = new Postlog('http://example.com/endpoint');

post.log('message to be logged to the console and server!');

The data is posted with a JSON body containing your logged data.

Logging objects

The following example would post the JSON encoded the entire object and send it as the body. This can be very useful when needing to identify a user or verifying the request with a token.

var post = new Postlog('http://example.com/endpoint');

var object = {
  message: 'message',
  tag: 'errors',
  timestamp: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000)
}

post.log(object);

NOTE: send() will not log anything to the clients consoles.

Callbacks

Both log() and send() supports optional callback arguments:

var post = new Postlog('http://example.com/endpoint');

post.log('message', function() {
  // whatever you feel like doing
});
