Logging array values
I've found a wrong behaviour when logging arrays.
I'm logging an object like this:
{ name: 'string',
energy:
{ isConsistent: true,
lastUpdate: '2015-05-20T17:30:00.000Z', },
hourly:
[ 1 value per hour since same day 00:00 ] }
Using the human formatter the object is printed this way:
[2015-05-20 18:24:39] DEBUG: (/.../index.js:50)
name: string
energy:
{
"isConsistent": true,
"lastUpdate": "2015-05-20T17:30:00.000Z",
}
hourly: [object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The problem seems to be human.js#L68 where you check for string [object Object] while the string coming from toString() is like [object Object],[object Object],....
Using util.inspect works fine, and is my current workaround ( I defined a custom formatter with only that line changed ). There is some specific reason why has not been used util.inspect? There is some other way in which I can resolve this issue ( apart from stringifing the content before loggin in)?
Thank you for this library and you support :)
