Console

📕 Console Library


🔷 Introduction

This script is an adaptation of the classic JavaScript console script. It provides a simple way to display data in a console-like table format for debugging purposes.

While there are many nice console/logger scripts out there, my personal goal was to achieve inline functionality and visual object (label, lines) logging.



🔷 How to Use

◼ 1. Import the Console library into your script:

Pine Script®

- or -

Instead of the library namespace, you can define a custom namespace as alias.

Pine Script®

◼ 2. Create and init a new `<terminal>` object.

The `init()` method is used to initialize the console object with default settings. It can be used to customize it.

Pine Script®

- or -

If you has set up an alias before.

◼ 3. Logging

◼ 4. Visibility

Finally, we need to call the `show()` method to display the logged messages in the console.

🔷 v2

- Included missing data types, enabling logging of any type except tables while including arrays/matrices.
The log() method now offers four different variants, each corresponding to a possible type.

Pine Script®

- If you only require a string representation, you can utilize the .toString() function, which is available for all types except tables, including arrays/matrices.
Introduced new temporary options: opt_textColor, opt_bgColor, and opt_textSize.

🔷 v3

✨ Enhanced Functionality
One of the key additions is the introduction of `_prefix`, `_delimiter`, `_lvl` options to all variants of the `log()` function. Now you have greater flexibility and control over how your logs are displayed.

📚 Updated Documentation
To make your experience even better, I've revamped my documentation. You'll find NEW BADGES that provide useful information and make it easier to navigate through the documentation.

🆕 Additional Methods
I listened to your feedback! In response, I have included the previously missing `.tostring()` method for `<box>`, `array<box>`, `linefill`, `array <linefill>` and matrix<linefill>.
You can now convert them into `<string>` representations effortlessly.

✅ Supported Types

With these updates, I've achieved comprehensive support for all types, excluding `<tables>`. You can now log and stringify allmost anything with ease.

Simply use:

Here's a quick recap of the supported types:

🔷 v4

Updated the function arguments to address a known override issue that occurs when logging an integer with a prefix in function calls. In result, I have separated the log level from the main `log()` function. You can now set the log level by using the `opt_lvl(int)` function.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Column 0 is out of table bounds: A big thank you to doqkhanh for reporting this issue. I've fixed the bug. Now, both initialization methods with and without var are working perfectly
  

✨ Enhancements

• Script Documentation Update: I've updated the script documentation to enhance your experience. Please note that currently, multiline function arguments break the custom documentation on hovering, so I've reformatted it to single lines.

🎉 Exciting New Features

🆕 Hybrid Logs: Added Support for the New Native Logging Feature

• Introducing a new way to log data with hybrid logs, enhancing the flexibility and control of your logging experience.

🆕 New Log Variant: Direct Logging to the App Log Window

• Now you can log directly to the app's native log window, providing a streamlined and efficient logging process.
  
• This direct logging variant automatically converts all supported native types to strings, making it easier to log data without the need for manual conversion.
  
• Ideal for simple logging tasks where direct access to the native log window is preferred.
