如何在 Cordova / PhoneGap 中关闭 console.log() 进行生产？

Question

How can I turn off the JavaScipt console.log() for production in Cordova / PhoneGap? Disabling the debugging information in the console probably speeds up the mobile app quite a bit.

There are numerous approaches, but none seems to work.

• overriding console.log - eg, Override console.log(); for production

• Override Cordova DebugConsole.prototype.log - eg, http://iamcam.wordpress.com/2011/07/26/quiet-the-console-phonegap-ios/

Any working examples? Other feasible approaches?

Answer 1

Wrapping might be a solution. If no 3rd party library is using the actual console and if you only want to use the log method.

var konsole = {
    log: function () {
        if (env === 'dev') {
            console.log(arguments)
        }

    }
}

konsole.log('fff');

env is a replacement for an environment var, which you could get from some kind of registry.

The correct way to do it is to override the Debug Console plugin which on iOS defaults to CDVDebugConsole . Subclass that class then do something like this:

- (void)log:(CDVInvokedUrlCommand*)command
{
    #ifdef DEBUG
        [super log:command];
    #endif
}

Remember to update your config.xml to use the new plugin.

I would recommend using: https://github.com/sunnykgupta/jsLogger

Features:

• It safely overrides the console.log. Takes care if the console is not available (oh yes, you need to factor that too.)
• Stores all logs (even if they are suppressed) for later retrieval.
• Handles major console functions like log, warn, error, info.
• Is open for modifications and will be updated whenever new suggestions come up.
