a simple wrapper for winston and winston-daily-rotate-file that i use as a logger for fast prototyping. Ideal for lazy people.
This module is just a lazy way to switch from the default console to winston while adding simple daily log files.
If you need a proper module to handle your logging, head over to winston
## Installation
```bashp
npm install lazy-logger
```
## Usage
The LazyLogger constructor accepts 4 arguments
1. The Winston Logging level as indicated by winston check the module's documentation for more.
`NOTE` 1. can be `'silly'`,`'debug'`,`'verbose'`,`'info'`,`'warn'`,`'error'`
2. Boolean that dictates the creation of a daily rotating file
3. In case `2.` is true a path will be required to store the log files
4. the date format of the date that will be part of the logfile name
``` js
var LazyLogger= new require('lazy-logger');
//initialize a logger object with info level of debug, a path, and a pattern for date
var logger= new LazyLogger('silly',true,'./log-','yyyy-MM-dd');
logger.silly('Silly level');
logger.debug('Debug level');
logger.verbose('Verbose level');
logger.info('Info level');
logger.warn('Warn level');
logger.error('Error level');
```
