Konsole.js

Konsole.js is a On-Screen Debugger/Logger and (optionally) default browser console replacement for mobile and desktop.

Konsole was created to have a quick and simple way to debug a project you are working on, without the need to have a debugger take up precious space. Konsole can be quickly accessed and used via Keyboard shortcuts. If you want to open Konsole on mobile, there is a hidden square/button at the bottom right of the browser on mobile devices.

Here, have a demo.

Features

• Mobile Friendly. Can be opened via a hidden square/button at the bottom right of any mobile browser.
• Obviously logging ( Log types: log, info, system, warn, error, event ).
• Prettifies log output, also allowing to define custom inspection depth
• Takeover-Mode: use Konsole as if it were console. (Can be disabled)
• Create custom commands that can be called via the Commandline.
• Monitor values via a floating Window. Useful for fast changing properties.
• Object.observe in Konsole. Loads Polyfill (using MaxArt2501/object-observe) if neccessary.
• Display FPS/MS Stats via mrdoob/stats.js.
• Find / Highlight DOM Elements.
• Display DOM Elements in Konsole.
• A simple DOM Overflow Tester ( no success-guarantee given ;) ).
• CSS Manipulation ( add/remove classes, change properties, retrieve styles on DOM Element ).
• Possibility to log to a server via KonsoleReport.

How-to use

Konsole currently requires jQuery v1 or jQuery v2 to be loaded before itself. Afterwards just add the CSS and Javascript File and you are good to go.

    <!-- Make sure you've loaded jQuery before -->
    <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="konsole-1.2.0.bundled.min.css" />
    <script type="text/javascript" src="konsole-1.2.0.bundled.min.js"></script>


    <!-- ready to go -->
    <script>
        console.log('hello world');
    </script>

Konsole comes in two flavors:

• bundled with prettify.js for DOM Element beautifying.
• regular min in case you don't need/want that.
• use nokonsole to disable logging without the need to remove any logging code.
• The same thing can be achieved by setting the option Konsole.enabled to false.

KonsoleReport
