A real log. For real starship captains.
First, summon your captain:
var captain = new Captain();Then go ahead, and log your log entries
captain.log('Captain\'s Log, supplemental. Our computer core has clearly been tampered with and yet there is no sign of a breach of security on board. We have engines back and will attempt to complete our mission.');
// Returns: log entry Object, containing message, type and stardateYou can also get your captain to read your entire log for you, as it was entered:
captain.read();
// Outputs: Every entry in your `captain.history`You can also access your captain's log in the captain.history array.
The constructor new Captain(name) supports one parameter: name, which sets your Captains name. Defaults to 'James T. Kirk'.
Secondly, debug mode can be set in captain.settings.debug or controlled by using captain.toggleDebug(). This controls if debug level logs are outputted or not.
All log methods (.log(), .debug(), .warn() and .error()) are used in the same way, much as the native console.log(). Your captain should sort out any environmental (browser) issues you might normally experience.
All log methods also enters your entry into your Captain's .history array.
Outputs a normal log with arguments. Returns a log entry Object containing your message (arguments), type (log) and the current stardate using StarDate.
Outputs a debug log with arguments. Returns a log entry Object containing your message (arguments), type (debug) and the current stardate using StarDate. Be aware that debug-level logs might not be output if settings.debug is set to false.
Outputs a warning log with arguments. Returns a log entry Object containing your message (arguments), type (warn) and the current stardate using StarDate.
Outputs a error log with arguments. Returns a log entry Object containing your message (arguments), type (error) and the current stardate using StarDate.
Outputs all log entries in Captain.history using type, showing the entered stardate and message (arguments).
This set's your Captain's behaviour - specifically whether or not debug level logs should be outputted. This method accepts one argument bool, the truthy/falsy value to set debug mode to. If undefined, the method will act as a switch from the current value.
Array containing all log entries made by your Captain.
