@vscode-logging/types

Types used by @vscode-logging/logger extracted to a separate package to enable in-direct dependents to type check against the correct interfaces.

For example imagine a VSCode extension called Foo which uses an npm package called Bar as a dependency and Bar APIs can accept an optional logger implementation:

// Code in `Bar` npm package
// -------------------------------------------------------

// By defining the `IChildLogger` interface` in `@vscode-logging/types`
// `Bar` only depends (dev dependency) on the interface **not** the implementation.
import { IChildLogger } from "@vscode-logging/types";

export function add(lhs: number, rhs: number, logger: IChildLogger): number {
  logger.info("Entering <add> function with params:", { lhs: lhs, rhs: rhs });
  return lhs + rhs;
}

Installation

With npm:

• npm install @vscode-logging/types --save-dev

With Yarn:

• yarn add @vscode-logging/types --dev

Usage

As shown above, simply import the IChildLogger interface and use it to define the type of your injected logger implementation.
