🌈 RainbowLogger

RainbowLogger is a vibrant and expressive logger for Flutter and Dart CLI applications.
It enhances your debugging experience with visually distinct logs using emoji, colors, timestamps, and customization.

✨ Features

• 🎨 ANSI terminal coloring mapped from Flutter Colors
• 🕒 Optional timestamps for clear traceability
• 💬 Emoji-based log labeling for instant recognition
• 🧩 Customizable prefix, suffix, and color
• 🔁 Reusable logger instances for consistent usage across files
• 💻 Works seamlessly in Flutter, Dart CLI, VS Code, Android Studio, and IntelliJ

🚀 Getting Started

📦 Installation

Add the dependency to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  rainbow_logger: ^1.0.0

Then run:

flutter pub get

🔌 Import It

import 'package:rainbow_logger/rainbow_logger.dart';

🧪 Usage

🔹 Static Logging

Use predefined static methods for quick logging:

RainbowLogger.errorPrint("❌ Something went wrong!");
RainbowLogger.successPrint("✅ Operation completed successfully.");
RainbowLogger.infoPrint("ℹ️ User has entered the dashboard.");
RainbowLogger.warningPrint("⚠️ This is just a warning.");
RainbowLogger.logPrint(
  "💡 Custom colored log",
  color: Colors.purple,
  prefix: "💡",
  suffix: "✔️",
  showTimestamp: true,
);

🔸 Reusable Logger Instance

Create a custom logger with consistent behavior:

final logger = RainbowLogger(
  prefix: "🚀",
  suffix: "✅",
  color: Colors.cyan,
  showTimestamp: true,
);

logger.print("Reusable logger in action!");

🎯 Output Example

[12:00:01] ❌ Something went wrong!
[12:00:01] ✅ Operation completed successfully.
[12:00:01] ℹ️ User has entered the dashboard.
[12:00:01] ⚠️ This is just a warning.
[12:00:01] 💡 Custom colored log ✔️
[12:00:01] 🚀 Reusable logger in action! ✅

✅ Note: ANSI terminal colors render correctly in popular editors and consoles.
