swift-log-console-colors

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.

Usage

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
