Wrapper for the console object for the JavaScript backend.

Styled Messages

CSS-styled messages in the browser are useful for debugging purposes. To use them, prefix the message with one or more %c, and provide the CSS style as the last argument. The amount of %c's must match the amount of CSS-styled strings.

Example: cmd: -r:off

import std/jsconsole
console.log "%c My Debug Message", "color: red" # Notice the "%c"
console.log "%c My Debug %c Message", "color: red", "font-size: 2em"

Templates

template exception(console: Console; args: varargs[untyped]): Alias for console.error(). Source Edit
template jsAssert(console: Console; assertion): JavaScript console.assert, for NodeJS this prints to stderr, assert failure just prints to console and do not quit the program, this is not meant to be better or even equal than normal assertions, is just for when you need faster performance and assertions, otherwise use the normal assertions for better user experience. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Console/assert
Example:

console.jsAssert(42 == 42) # OK console.jsAssert(42 != 42) # Fail, prints "Assertion failed" and continues console.jsAssert('`' == '\n' and '\t' == '\0') # Message correctly formatted assert 42 == 42 # Normal assertions keep working
