i cannot change the :label color based on the warn,error,info etc...

[p3x-robot]

with the previous version, i could set the color of the type of log

How did you solve this?

I'm interested, too. How to do this properly? @p3x-robot @starak

   require('console-stamp')(console, {
        format: ':date(yyyy/mm/dd HH:MM:ss.l).cyan :p3x.yellow :myLabel',
        tokens:{
            p3x: () => {
                let base;
                if (cluster.isWorker) {
                    const baseName = process.env.NGIVR_SERVER_COMMAND.toUpperCase();
//console.log(process.env)
                    switch (process.env.NGIVR_SERVER_COMMAND) {
                        case 'worker':
                            base = `[${baseName} ${_.padStart(cluster.worker.id, 3, 0)}]`
                            break;

                        case 'singleton':
                            base = `[${baseName}]`
                            break;

                        default:
                            throw new Error(`Unknown fork command: ${process.env.NGIVR_SERVER_COMMAND}`)
                    }
                } else {
                    base = `[MASTER]`;
                }
                return chalk`{black.grey ${base.padStart(12, ' ')}}` + ` [PID: ${(String(process.pid).padStart(6, 0))}] `;
            },
            myLabel: ( arg ) => {
                const { method, defaultTokens } = arg;
                let label = defaultTokens.label( arg );
                switch(method) {
                    case 'error':
                        label = chalk`{bold.red ${label}}`;
                        break;

                    case 'warn':
                        label = chalk`{bold.blue ${label}}`;
                        break;

                    default:
                        label = chalk`{green ${label}}`;
                }
                return label;
            }
        },
    });

There is also an example here @p3x-robot @nikeee @Aspvik

@starak thanks for pointing me to this. It seems to work only on version 3. Is there a way for doing that in the latest stable version?

I know this is a few years old, but I searched for this for a while and came up with a solution which I believe is neater than the ones above...

export function formatConsole() {
  // Custom console methods
  // @ts-ignore
  console.ok = () => console.log.apply(console, arguments);

  consoleStamp(console, {
    format: ":date(HH:MM:ss.l).grey :colorLabel()",
    extend: {
      ok: 4
    },
    include: ["debug","info","ok","warn","error","log"],
    tokens: {
      colorLabel: ({method}) => {
        switch(method) {
          case 'debug': return chalk.gray('[DEBUG]'.padEnd(7, ' '));
          case 'info':  return chalk.cyan('[INFO]'.padEnd(7, ' '));
          case 'ok':    return chalk.green('[OK]'.padEnd(7, ' '));
          case 'warn':  return chalk.yellow('[WARN]'.padEnd(7, ' '));
          case 'error': return chalk.red('[ERROR]'.padEnd(7, ' '));
          case 'log':
          default:      return chalk.white('[LOG]'.padEnd(7, ' '));
        }
      }
    }
  });

  console.ok("Console formatting applied.");
}

Now I'll go back to searching how to add a custom method like ok() that can still be 'parsed' this way (through consoleStamp)... the example on the readme/doc only explains how to override it completely... but that's outside the topic of this issue :)

Edit: Found it! Just need to add console.ok = () => console.log.apply(console, arguments); and the other already documented stuff. I've gone ahead and edited my example to include this too.
