Print handling and customizing

Logger supports fine-tuning with the second argument LogOptions in a capture method. Also, you can handle print and output with l on some function or in a whole app with this simple syntax:

import 'package:l/l.dart';

void main() => l.capture(
      someFunction,
      const LogOptions(
        handlePrint: true,
        printColors: true,
        outputInRelease: false,
        messageFormatting: _messageFormatting,
      ),
    );

Future<void> someFunction() async {
  print('Hello');
  await Future<void>.delayed(const Duration(milliseconds: 150));
  l.d('world');
  await Future<void>.delayed(const Duration(milliseconds: 150));
  l.e('!!!');
}

Object _messageFormatting(Object message, LogLevel logLevel, DateTime now) =>
    '${now.hour}:${now.minute.toString().padLeft(2, '0')} $message';

Handling errors

Flutter
final sourceFlutterError = FlutterError.onError;
FlutterError.onError = (details) {
  l.w(details.exceptionAsString(), details.stack);
  sourceFlutterError?.call(details);
};
Crashlytics
l.where((msg) => msg.level.maybeWhen(
      error: () => true,
      warning: () => true,
      orElse: () => false,
    ))
  .map<String>((msg) => msg.message.toString())
  .listen(FirebaseCrashlytics.instance.log);
Zoned Errors
runZonedGuarded(someFunction, l.e);
Handling uncaught errors
Isolate.current
       ..setErrorsFatal(false)
       ..addErrorListener(
         RawReceivePort(
           (List<dynamic> pair) => // ignore: avoid_types_on_closure_parameters
               l.e(pair.first as Object),
         ).sendPort,
       );

Limitations

  • When there is no direct access to the terminal, it works through print.
  • !!! PLEASE, DO NOT LOG SENSITIVE INFORMATION !!!

How do I choose a repository?

Start with your use case, compare repository activity, and check the original project before adopting it.

  1. Search by repository name, owner or description, then narrow the results by topic.
  2. Compare stars, forks and recent pushes. Stars show community interest, not a guarantee of quality.
  3. Read the README, license and issues on GitHub before using a project.
