Installation

Add this to your podfile...

# for Swift 4.0
pod 'Atlantis', :git => 'https://github.com/aaronjsutton/Atlantis.git', :branch => 'swift-4-patch'
# for Swift 3.0
pod 'Atlantis'
# for Swift 2.3
pod 'Atlantis', :git => 'https://github.com/DrewKiino/Atlantis.git', :branch => 'swift2.3'

Then do a pod install, and voila!

Unique Logs

This includes the stamp trace of the log's

date

source

function

line number

type

Note: The date's format goes by month, date, year, hour, then time of day.

// You do not need to initialize this, the variable is initialized in file.
let log = Atlantis.Logger()

// Let's log some stuff
log.verbose("Hello, World!")
log.info("Hello, World!")
log.warning("Hello, World!")
log.debug("Hello, World!")
log.error("Hello, World!")

Which prints the following...

Powerful Printing

Atlantis

pretty print

-

proper text alignment

Atlantis

Atlantis.Configuration.alignmentThreshold

which defaults to

5

-

optionals

Atlantis

let doIExist: String? = nil

log.warning(doIExist)
// prints 'nil'

-

empty strings

Atlantis

let emptyString: String = ""

log.warning(emptyString)
// prints ""

-

native types

let string = "Hello, World"
let int = 123
let double = 12.3
let float = 12.3
let bool = true

// you can either log one value
log.debug(string)
// or all of them like so,
log.debug(string, int, double, float, bool)
// prints
"Hello, World" // first one
"Hello, World" // prints each with a new line
123
12.3
12.3
true

-

arrays

// array of ints
let numbers = [123, 1234, 12345]

log.debug(numbers)
// prints
[
    123,
    1234,
    12345
]

// lets try arrays of arrays
let numberArray = [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5]]

log.debug(numberArray)
// prints
[
    [
        1,
        2,
        3
    ],
    [
        4,
        5
    ]
]

-

dictionaries

// on to dictionaries...
let dictionary: [String: AnyObject] = [
    "quote": "It is better to have loved, than to have never loved at all?"
]

log.debug(dictionary)
// prints
[
    "quote": "It is better to have loved, than to have never loved at all?"
]

// how about NSDictionary types?
var dictionary = NSDictionary()
dictionary.updateValue("will this work?", key: "question")

log.debug(dictionary)
// prints
[
    "question": "will  this work?"
]

// say we got two response objects from the server,
// now both objects are the same but one of them has missing data...

responses.map { log.debug($0) }
// prints
{
    "response": "Here is some data!",
    "success" 200
},
{
    "response": null,
    "success" 200
}
// Atlantis will print all of the object's keys regardless of missing
// or empty values and will print null if need be.

-

objects

// now let's get to the fun part,

// native Foundation (ex: UIView, UIColor, etc.)

log.debug(UIColor())
// prints
uiplaceholdercolor:

// native NSObjects

public class Dog: NSObject {
  var name = "Doug"
}
let dog = Dog()
log.debug(dog)
// prints
{
    "name": "Doug"
}

// But what about objects you created with no native subclasses?

public class CustomObject {
    var id: Int = 123
    var name: String = "Ben"
}
let customObject = CustomObject()
log.debug(customObject)
// prints
{
    "id": 123,
    "name": "Doug"
}
// Haha, no way?

// Alright, well how about custom objects with custom objects in them?

public class ParentObject {
    var id: Int = 456
    var name: String = "Tammy"
    var customObject: CustomObject = CustomObject()
}
let parentObject = ParentObject()
log.debug(parentObject)
// prints
{
    "id": 456,
    "name": "Tammy"
    "customObject": {
        "id": 123,
        "name": "Doug"
    }
}
// That's right.

// Okay, custom objects with an array of custom objects. ;)

public class ParentObject {
    var id: Int = 456
    var name: String = "Tammy"
    var customObjects: [CustomObject] = [CustomObject(), CustomObject()]
}
let parentObject = ParentObject()
log.debug(parentObject)
// prints
{
    "id": 456,
    "name": "Tammy"
    "customObjects": [
        {
            "id": 123,
            "name": "Doug"
        },
        {
            "id": 123,
            "name": "Doug"
        }
    ]
}

// Not impressed?

let parentObject1 = ParentObject()
let parentObject2 = ParentObject() // one of its child has a dictionary
let parents: [ParentObject] = [parentObject1, parentObject2]
log.debug(parents)
// prints
[
    {
        "id": 456,
        "name": "Tammy"
        "customObjects": [
            {
                "id": 123,
                "name": "Doug"
            },
            {
                "id": 123,
                "name": "Doug"
            }
        ]
    },
    {
        "id": 456,
        "name": "Tammy"
        "customObjects": [
            {
                "id": 123,
                "name": "Doug"
            },
            {
                "id": 123,
                "name": "Doug"
                "dictionary": [
                    "likes": "baseball",
                    "dislikes": "pad thai"
                ]
            }
        ]
    }
]
// Atlantis' logging is infinitely and ambiguously recursive,
// it supports almost all data types including arrays, dictionaries,
// and any objects within any objects. 👍🏼

-

Structs

// Great!! Now on to some more stand-alone but much needed types.

struct Struct {
  var name: String = "Bob the Builder"
  var skills: [String] = ["structures, buildings"]
}
log.debug(Struct())
// prints
{
  "skills" : [
    "structures, buildings"
  ],
  "name" : "Bob the Builder"
}

-

Enum

enum ErrorType {
    case Severe
    case Moderate
    case Casual
}

let type: ErrorType = .Severe
log.debug(type)
// prints
Severe

// one more example.

log.debug(ErrorType.Moderate)
log.debug(ErrorType.Casual)
// prints
Moderate
Casual

Error Handling

Atlantis

Error: [ViewController.swift/viewDidLoad()/line:98]
{
  "code" : 404,
  "localizedDescription" : "The operation couldn’t be completed. (Hello, World! error 404.)",
  "domain" : "Hello, World!",
  "userInfo" : {
    "error": "found"
    "note": "syntax"
  }
}

It will automatically parse the localized description, error code, domain, and user info from the

NSError

Atlantis.Configuration.highlightsErrors // default false

By default,

Atlantis

Atlantis.Configuration.filteredErrorCodes

Atlantis

Say you want to filter out error code

-1099 // offline error

Atlantis.Configuration.filteredErrorCodes.append(-1099)

// let's call a method that throws errors, however one of the
// errors is something we want to filter out.
method() { error in
    log.error(error) // can either be error 404 or -1099?
}
// will only print the error if the error code is 404

Now, if the method throws a

-1099

Atlantis

.Tap

Tap is an

Atlantis

func add(x: Int, _ y: Int) -> Int { return x + y }

let addXY = log.tap.debug(add(3, 5))
// prints 8 and assigns the value to addXY

Normal extensions such as

.Verbose

.Tap

Compatible with

Promises

using PromiseKit more specifically...

func promise() -> Promise {
  return Promise { fulfill, reject in
    // blah blah
    fulfill("Hello from server!")
  }
}

promise()
.then { log.tap($0) }
.then { reply in
  // blah blah
}
.catch { log.error($0) }
// prints "Hello from server!" while completing the promise.

Note that

.Tap

Configuration

Levels

Atlantis.Configuration.logLevel // default .Verbose

The five log levels are:

Verbose

Info

Warning

Debug

Error

None

For example, if you set the log level to

Debug

Atlantis

Debug

Error

Setting the log level to

.None

Atlantis

Source Information

Atlantis.Configuration.showExtraInfo // default true

You can also hide the source details by setting this parameter to false.

Coloring

Atlantis

// colors
Atlantis.Configuration.hasColoredLogs // default false
Atlantis.Configuration.hasWhiteBackground // default false
Atlantis.Configuration.coloredLogLevels // default [.Verbose, .Info, .Warning, .Debug, .Error]

// using a Tuple initializer
Atlantis.Configuration.logColors.info = Atlantis.XCodeColor(fg: (Int, Int, Int)>, bg: )
// using UIColor setting only the foreground
Atlantis.Configuration.logColors.info = Atlantis.XCodeColor(fg: UIColor)
// or using UIColor setting both the foreground and background
Atlantis.Configuration.logColors.debug = Atlantis.XCodeColor(fg: UIColor, bg: UIColor)

By default,

Atlantis

However, for you to enable log colors you will have to first download the xcode package manager Alcatraz and enable it inside xcode. Pull up the package manager afterwards and install XCodeColors.

Afterword

To Do

1. ~~create a logging framework~~
2. ~~add color customization~~
3. print to a text file when used on a device
4. ~~pretty print json types from server responses~~
