❗️ Attention ❗️

Logs are truncated / cut by the console

Latest Flutter stable release have print method bug issues/110236
But with Talker you can solve it with passing your own output/print method

If you want to see full logs in console - pass debugPrint as ouput callback method in Talker constructor

final talker = Talker(
  loggerOutput: debugPrint,
);

iOS logs colors

There is a problem with the color palette of logs when launching the app on iOS. In this case, the console cannot read the ansi colors that are used by the library.

For disable colors in iOS application you can setup this loggerSettings field

  final talker = Talker(
    loggerSettings: TalkerLoggerSettings(
      enableColors: !Platform.isIOS,
    ),
  );

⚙️ Customization

Configure the error handler and logger for yourself

final talker = Talker(
    /// Your own observers to handle errors's exception's and log's
    /// like Crashlytics or Sentry observer
    observers: [],
    settings: const TalkerSettings(
      /// You can enable/disable all talker processes with this field
      enabled: true,
      /// You can enable/disable saving logs data in history
      useHistory: true,
      /// Length of history that saving logs data
      maxHistoryItems: 100,
      /// You can enable/disable console logs
      useConsoleLogs: true,
    ),
    /// Setup your implementation of logger
    logger: TalkerLogger(),
    ///etc...
  );
