Console.log How to turn on/off console in development



How to turn-off Console logs?

Traditional browsers doesn't support console object. This is one way to turn off console logs for your web application.

How to switch off console object in Production?

Call this util method when Ext application is ready.

i,e inside init() or Launch() of Ext.app.Application class
Example:


init: function(app) {
  handleConsoleFn(false, false);
}
/*
 * Call once at begining to ensure your app can safely call console.log()
 * and console.dir(),even on legacy browsers that don't support it.You may not get useful logging on those browsers,
 * but at least you won't generate errors.
 * @params alertFallback if 'true', all logs becomes alerts in Legacy browsers like IE, if necessary (keep 'false' in production)
 * @params debugModeON if 'true', console object will be enabled, (keep 'false' in production) 
 
 */

handleConsoleFn: function(alertFallback, debugModeON) {
    var me = this;
    if (typeof console === "undefined") {
        console = {}; /* define it if object doesn't exist */
    }
    /* condition check for console.log object */
    if (typeof console.log === "undefined") {
        if (alertFallback) {
            console.log = function(msg) {
                alert("CONSOLE LOG:" + msg);
            };
        } else {
            console.log = function() {};
        }
    } else {
        /* case: debugModeON = true */
        if (!debugModeON) {
            console = console || {};
            console.log = function() {};
        }
    }

    /* condition check for console.dir object */
    if (typeof console.dir === "undefined") {
        if (alertFallback) {
            /*Note: This could be improved like List all the object properties of console at one time.*/
            console.dir = function(msg) {
                alert("CONSOLE DIR:" + msg);
            };

        } else {
            console.dir = function() {};
        }

    } else {
        if (!debugModeON) {
            console = console || {};
            console.dir = function() {};
        }
    }
}
How to use Ext.Logger ?
For development, We can customize Ext.Logger mechanism as below


/**
* Fancy Ext.Logger.warn(), error()
* By including this file we'll force override of the Ext.Logger.warn() behavior. 
eg: 
Ext.Logger.error(errMsg);
Ext.Logger.warn('Warning msg');
*/

Ext.define('Master.util.Log', {
 singleton: true,
 /**
  * Logs color-coded console message; intended for development only  
  * to be used in betwee debug directives.  
  * @param {String} text to log  
  */

 warn: function(text) {
  console.log('%cWARN: %s', 'background: #222; color: orange', text);
 },

 error: function(text) {
  console.log('%cERROR: %s', 'background: #d9e6ee; color: red', text);
 }

}, function() {
 Ext.Logger.warn = Master.util.Log.warn;
 Ext.Logger.error = Master.util.Log.error;
});

ExtJS 4 with Spring MVC Example

Introduction When developing a brand new application for the company I work for, one of the first thing I implement is "authentication". Not only is this process generally a prerequisite to access many other functions but it is also very simple and covers every layer of an application, from GUI to the database. So instead of another minimalistic "Hello World" tutorial, here is a "Login/Password" example, using 2 famous technologies : Spring MVC and ExtJS 4.   Prerequisites Because this tutorial is quite long, I won't go into the details of each technology I used but I will mainly focus on how ExtJS and Spring can be nicely used together. So here are the things you should know before continuing : Spring framework (good knowledge) Spring MVC (basic knowledge. See  Spring MVC Official Documentation  for details) ExtJS "application architecture" (see  Sencha Docs  for details) Eclipse IDE + Tomcat 6 (or any other web container) You a...

Ext4 Apply Store Filtering

In extjs4.1: There are many way for store filtering . Some of code i give here Filtering by single field: store . filter ( 'eyeColor' , 'Brown' );   Alternatively, if filters are configured with an  id , then existing filters store may be  replaced by new filters having the same  id . Filtering by single field: store . filter ( "email" , /\.com$/ );   Using multiple filters: store . filter ([ { property : "email" , value : /\.com$/ }, { filterFn : function ( item ) { return item . get ( "age" ) > 10 ; }} ]);   Using  Ext.util.Filter  instances instead of config objects (note that we need to specify the root config option in this case): store . filter ([ Ext . create ( ' Ext.util.Filter ' , {   property : "email" , value : /\.com$/ , root : 'data' }),   Ext . create ( ' Ext.util.Filter ' , {   filterFn : function ( item ) {   return item . get ( ...
