remote-logger-g-cell
This is a JavaScript remote logger. It enables you to read logs from a webapp running on any device such as smartphones and read the console logs in the browser, with minimal setup.
Getting started
Install the server utilities.
npm i -g rlgc
Install the client library.
npm install remote-logger-g-cell
In your webapp import the client library.
let rlgc = new RLGC();
rlgc.init("http://localhost", 5000);
The port used must match --ws-port when running rlgc --mode server --ws-port 5000 --console-ws-port 4000, just
like in the example above.
Start the server on a given ports
The following command will start a express server listening on port --ws-port for messages sent by the client rlgc app. The port --ui-port will be used to forward the messages to the user interface.
rlgc --mode server --ws-port 5000 --console-ws-port 4000
Start the user interface on a given port
The following command will start a react app on port --console-app-port and display messages sent from the rlgc server app. The port --console-ws-port will be used to transport the messages from the server to the user interface. The port --console-ws-port must also match the --ui-port.
rlgc --mode ui --console-app-port 4005 --console-ws-port 4000
Now you can open http://localhost:4005/ and see your logs.
Test app
The following command will start a react app on port --console-app-port
rlgc --mode test-app --console-app-port 3005 --console-ws-port 5000
Now you can open http://localhost:3005/ and click the test button. The console logs will also be displayed on http://localhost:4005/.
