Installation

Use NPM

``shell
$ npm install better-console
`

A better console for Node.js


better-console is a drop-in replacement for node's default console which
gives you colors and more methods in console.

How to use it

You can override console object itself or assign better console to another variable. It's completely safe to override the native console object because better console calls native console methods for methods that are already available in it.

`
var console = require('better-console');

console.log("This is a log information");
console.warn("Warning!");
console.info("Information");
console.table([ [1,2], [3,4] ]);
console.time("Timer");
console.timeEnd("Timer");
console.dir(myObject);

`
