How can I see console.log output when running a NestJS app?

Question

I'm building my first NestJS app and I see a lot of examples in their docs that use console.log(), but when I add it, there's no output in the terminal. I'm using vscode's terminal.

I've also tried using the built-in Logger and start the app using npm run start:debug, and I see no output from the Logger either. I know that it's reaching my controller because I'm getting a response. Does anyone know what the issue could be?

Answer 1

you better use Logger instead of console.

import { Logger } from '@nestjs/common';

Logger.log('info')
Logger.warn('warning')
Logger.error('something went wrong! ', error)
