Colourful Bash Logging
(, en)
Poor man’s logging implementation for bash scripts:
YELLOW=$'\e[33m'
BLUE=$'\e[34m'
RED=$'\e[31m'
NC=$'\e[0m'
isodate() {
date "+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
}
log_error() {
echo "$RED$(isodate) [ERROR] $*$NC"
}
log_warn() {
echo "$YELLOW$(isodate) [WARN] $*$NC"
}
log_info() {
echo "$BLUE$(isodate) [INFO] $*$NC"
}
log_debug() {
echo "$(isodate) [DEBUG] $*"
}
log_error "foo bar"
log_warn "foo bar"
log_info "foo bar"
log_debug "foo bar"
