How to console.log objects as a color?-CodePudding

(node.js) if i try to color an object on console.log like so

console.log('\x1b[32m', {a:1,b:2,c:3}, '\x1b[0m');

it looks like this:

how do I make it so the text actually all gets colored?

I know i could stringify the arguments manually then join them to a single string and color them, but that ruins the nice multiline formatting console.log usually employs:

CodePudding user response：

In order to convert an object to a pretty json string you may pass a 3rd param as the indent size for beautify-ing the input.

var obj = {
  some: "thing",
  values: {
    arr: [12, 15, 24],
    size: null
  }
}

console.log("this is a string: "   JSON.stringify(obj, null, 4))

Then of course you can colorize it using one color. See comments above for techniques.
