Printing reql statements for debugging

[dtoubelis]

Is there any parameter I can pass when instantiating thinky that would cause it to print reql statements that are sent to the server? That would be very helpful debugging tool.

You can call toString on a query, as for save, you can't easily print things at the moment.

I do this in my development environment:

var Thinky = require("thinky");

var thinky = Thinky({
    host: Config.rethink.host,
    port: Config.rethink.port,
    db: Config.rethink.db
});

if (Config.env === "dev") {
    // intercept and output reql in dev environment
    thinky.r._Term.prototype.run = _.wrap(thinky.r._Term.prototype.run, function (func) {
        console.error(this.toString());
        var trailingArguments = [].slice.call(arguments, 1);
        return func.apply(this, trailingArguments);
    });
}

@brandon-beacher That is clever :-) Thanks.
