This is a small SwiftLog API compatible library that implements colors to make it easier for finding specific logs in the XCode console.
It is an implementation of a LogHandler
as defined by the Swift Server Working Group logging API.
Add https://github.com/nneuberger1/swift-log-console-colors.git
as a dependency in your Package.swift.
Then, during your application startup, do:
import Logging
import SwiftLogConsoleColors
// Initialize the logger
ColorStreamLogHandler.standardOutput(label: label, logIconType: .cool)
Elsewhere in your application, when you need to log, do:
// Create a logger (or re-use one you already have)
let logger = Logger(label: "MyApp")
// Log!
logger.info("Hello World!")
The output will look like this if passing in .cool
