node-log4cxx

This is a log4cxx wrapper for working with Node.js. If your Node.js application has a native addon which has already included log4cxx for logging, you will find this module really useful to unify the logging system and simplify the configuration.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 4.x/5.x

• C++11 compiler

• npm install -g node-gyp

• log4cxx

  • OS X: brew install log4cxx
  • Ubuntu: sudo aptitude install liblog4cxx-dev

Install

• From NPM: npm install log4cxx --save

Brief introduction

This module exports a Logger function as object constructor, as well as Logger._. Internally, Logger uses Logger._ to accompany with liblog4cxx. However, Logger is better for formatting objects, whilst Logger._ is better in efficiency. BTW, Logger._ is almost the same as log4cxx@0.0.2 module.

Read liblog4cxx usage for configuration details. See test.js for sample code.

Quick start

• Prepare a log4cxx.properties file, as sample

'use strict';
var log = new (require('log4cxx'))('demo');
log.info('Hello World');
