> Logger functionality separated from (debug) console
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-623
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-623
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: CordovaJS, Docs, iOS
> Affects Versions: 1.6.1
> Environment: In discussion from CB-611 it is a bad idea to mix logger
> level functionality with HTML5 console log
> Reporter: Chris Brody
> Assignee: Patrick Mueller
> Fix For: Master
>
>
> After a long discussion with Patrick Mueller in CB-611 it is now clear to me
> that it is a bad idea to mix extra logger level functionality with
> {{console}} log functionality. The existing {{console}} object (or
> {{window.console}} which is equivalent) was already emulating the HTML API
> for console.log, however some changes that only work in the iOS version are
> adding extra functions that are not HTML compatible. So if users start
> writing code that uses extra functions in the {{console}} or
> {{window.console}} namespace that code will start throwing exceptions if
> ported or reused in a pure HTML(5) application.
> Patrick Mueller proposed an excellent idea in CB-611 to add a new Javascript
> object like {{cordova.logger}} to put the functionality related to logging.
> The primary purpose should be for plugin authors to log things that may be
> important for debugging applications. So the {{console}} (or
> {{window.console}}) object can be remain with a fully HTML-compliant API.
> Also, I think there is some agreement that having a built-in plugin called
> "Debug Console" (with the space in the middle) should be fixed
> (CB-611/CB-617). Patrick Mueller suggested that we call the plugin something
> like "Logger" and I really like that idea. It is positioning a lower-level
> logging facility, that can be called by a higher-level {{console}} API
> implementation.
> I hereby leave this issue together with CB-611 as well as CB-617 CB-618
> CB-619 open for discussion.
