JavaScript nop console, replace console method calls with no-operations.
Useful to silence all logging- i.e. during testing- or just from one module.
Install the module with: npm install noop-console
Mute global console
:
require('noop-console')(console);
Later if you want to restore the console, you can restore it by calling:
console._restore();
If you create abstract modules with a logger
property that references the standard console so that the actual logger implementation is defined outside the module, you can override this with a noop-console
.
module.js
:
function MyModule(){}
MyModule.prototype.logger = console;
my_test.js
:
var MyModule = require('./module');
MyModule.prototype.logger = require('noop-console')();
