Extension summary

But why use Storyboard? (http://guigrpa.github.io/storyboard/)

  • Hierarchical stories: put logs in context (stories), and group them in higher-order stories; they can be a life-saver with concurrent user actions and async events.
  • End-to-end stories: see all client and server tasks triggered by a user action (a click on the Login button, maybe) in a single place.
  • Storyboard DevTools Chrome extension: view client and server logs with a clean and detail-rich interface, including advanced features such as remote monitoring (for mobile devices and non-Chrome browsers) and relative timestamps.
  • Storyboard CLI: wrap any application with it (no changes required) to monitor it remotely with the Storyboard DevTools.
  • Real-time push of server logs to the Storyboard DevTools extension via WebSockets, with opt-in client-server clock synchronization. Even more: control the level of detail you get from various parts of your server remotely, without relaunching.
  • Secure server logs: remote access is opt-in, and can be authenticated.
  • Attach anything to your logs for further investigation.
  • Plug-in architecture. Available plugins include Console, WebSocket Server & Client, File, (PostgreSQL) Database, and Browser Extension, but you can write your own too!
  • Lightweight. Plugins are now (v3) available separately, so you only need to bring in the dependencies you actually use.
  • Rich filter options: give logs source and severity attributes and apply fine-grained filtering, with white and black lists.
  • Colorful: use color to convey meaning and importance. Storyboard extends the popular chalk library so that it can also be used on the browser.
  • Enjoy the simple-yet-powerful API.
