Fantastic library @hiro5id , I use it on all my projects! Thanks a lot.
please can you prioritise this work though? It's so difficult to read locally

[johhnsmmith198]

wondering if you could allow a wrapper function (before the console.log) that can be defined in the user config.
Then the user could define a function that color the output like this one for instance: https://www.npmjs.com/package/json-colorizer

actually winston has a color capability I think: https://www.npmjs.com/package/winston

I could do this as well to handle the coloring outside the nodejs process :

node src/index.js | jq -c

EDIT: but this is causing issues with handling Ctr-c so I can't use it

I admit this is something that bugs me me for local development too. I'll need to look into this. But I do have a day job that takes a lot of time, even so I would enjoy implementing this kind of thing. However please know that if you can't wait, I am happy to accept a pull request.

Hey @hiro5id , I can see you are back at it?
Are you considering this issue, please?

@johhnsmmith198 I have implemented colouring... starting v2.12.0 . The existing colours are not customizable yet, but I plan on allowing custom configs in following versions...
Enable it by defining environment variable CONSOLE_LOG_COLORIZE="true" it is, off by default because some log aggregators don't like colours, so it just introduces noise.
