verboz

CLI-type verbosity-level "logger". Probably works in the browser, but originally intended for CLI apps.

Usage

const argv = require('minimist')(process.argv.slice(2), {string: ['v','verbose']})
const verboz = require('verboz').fromArgv(console.log, argv)

// $> node -- -v
verboz("asdf", "isn't", ['qwerty'])
// => no output

verboz(2, "asdf", "isn't", ['qwerty'])
// => console.log("asdf", "isn't", ['qwerty'])

The more --verbose flags passed on the command-line, the higher the debugging level and [generally] more output.

API

verboz(out, count)

Set up logging to function out. Returns function with signature [level], Array msg). If level >= count call out(msg).

verboz#fromArgv(out, argv)

Parse minimist output counting up the --verbose and -v flags to arrive at a level. Call verboz(out, <count>)
