# Log.gd, a Godot pretty printer > Available on the [Godot Asset > Library](https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/2696) and [Github](https://github.com/russmatney/log.gd). > I gave [a Lightning talk](https://youtu.be/4Fv9YXHMA_U) about this addon at > Godot Con Boston! Here are [the > slides](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Tlz8bLD4Uqltruwj7OmKIOr_InZrkWIvSDHUkQ_iJdY/edit#slide=id.p). Log.gd provides a drop-in replacement for GDScript's `print(...)` function. It colors the output based on the value passed in, and adds a prefix based on the call-site's file and line number. ![Dino output logs (light theme)](/docs/assets/dino_example_output_light.png) ![Dino output logs (dark theme)](/docs/assets/dino_example_output_dark.png) This makes Godot's `Output` buffer much more readable! And now, I can't live without it :eyeroll: ### TLDR - `Log.pr(...)` is a `prints(...)` replacement (includes spaces between args) - `Log.prn(...)`, `Log.prnn(...)`, and `Log.prnnn(...)` are the same, but include limited newlines + tabs when printing nested arrays and dictionaries - Both add prefix with the calling filename and line number (e.g. `[Player:34]`) - Both color the output values based on the value's type - `Log.debug(...)`, `Log.info(...)`, `Log.warn(...)`, `Log.error(...)` offer differing log levels ## Links - [Docs](https://russmatney.github.io/log.gd/#/) - [Installation](https://russmatney.github.io/log.gd/#/?id=install) - [Features](https://russmatney.github.io/log.gd/#/?id=features) - [Public API](https://russmatney.github.io/log.gd/#/?id=public-api) - [Settings](https://russmatney.github.io/log.gd/#/?id=settings) - [Implementation](https://russmatney.github.io/log.gd/#/implementation) - [Log.gd on the Godot Asset Library](https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/2696) - [Color Constants Cheatsheet](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/godotengine/godot-docs/master/img/color_constants.png) ## Other Godot Loggers There are some other great printers/loggers with a variety of features - check them out! - [gg.print](https://github.com/graydoubt/gg_print) - [Loggie](https://github.com/Shiva-Shadowsong/loggie) - [LogFox](https://github.com/HakaikuXiao/LogFox) - comparing values across runs - [GoLogger](https://github.com/Burloe/GoLogger) - more production/release angled - [https://github.com/ClumsyInker/godot-editor-log-highlighter](https://github.com/ClumsyInker/godot-editor-log-highlighter) - [https://github.com/albinaask/Log](https://github.com/albinaask/Log) - [https://gitlab.com/godot-stuff/gs-logger](https://gitlab.com/godot-stuff/gs-logger) - [https://github.com/JohnDevlopment/godot-jlogger](https://github.com/JohnDevlopment/godot-jlogger) - [https://github.com/raldone01/godot_addon_gdlogging_assetlib](https://github.com/raldone01/godot_addon_gdlogging_assetlib) - [https://codeberg.org/Taffer/godot-logger](https://codeberg.org/Taffer/godot-logger) - [https://github.com/DawnGroveStudios/GodotLogger](https://github.com/DawnGroveStudios/GodotLogger) - [https://github.com/ZeeWeasel/LogDuck](https://github.com/ZeeWeasel/LogDuck) - [https://github.com/DaviD4Chirino/Awesome-Debug-Log](https://github.com/DaviD4Chirino/Awesome-Debug-Log) ## Contributors Huge thanks to the Log.gd contributors! - [cridenour](https://github.com/cridenour) - [Gramps](https://github.com/Gramps) - [gofastlily](https://github.com/gofastlily) - [gofastlily](https://github.com/gofastlily) - [IAmTraffic](https://github.com/IAmTraffic) - [Fox-Alpha](https://github.com/Fox-Alpha)
