Logging in Jaggery

In Jaggery, you can log with different levels i.e. debug, info, warn, error, fatal which can be enabled/disabled using the logLevel parameter in the jaggery.conf.

{
    "welcomeFiles" : ["index.html"],
    "logLevel" : "debug"
} 

Logging can be done with the desired log level using log.debug(), log.info(), log.warn(), log.error() and log.fatal() methods. Also, whether the debug logs are enabled can be checked using log.isDebugEnabled().

var log = new Log();

if(log.isDebugEnabled()) {
    log.debug('This is a debug log');
}

log.info('This is an info log');
log.warn('This is a warning log');
log.error('This is an error log');
log.fatal('This is a fatal log');

If you have come across the requirement of executing timer tasks within a Jaggery code, then you can use the following code to do that. These are the same set of functions that you have in the browser.

You can also use clearTimeout and clearInterval functions to stop the task execution.

One time tasks

setTimeout(function() {
     var log = new Log();
     log.info('setTimeout() is executed after 2s');
}, 2000);  

Recurring tasks

setInterval(function() {
     var log = new Log();
     log.info('setInterval() is being executed within 4s intervals');
}, 4000);
