Console Log Manager

A Visual Studio Code extension to clear all console.log statements in your file with one shortcut — and to insert console.log debugging lines quickly.
Great for cleaning up code before commits, and for adding debug logs while coding.

✨ Features

• Remove debug logs

  • Clears all console.log() statements from the active file.
  • Optionally remove other debug logs (debug, info, warn, error) — configurable in settings.
  • Option to also remove inline console.log calls.
  • Removes empty lines left behind.

• Insert debug logs

  • Press a shortcut to insert a console.log below the current line.
  • If no text is selected:

    console.log("👉🏻 --->| ");
    

  • If text (single-line) is selected:

    console.log("👉🏻 --->| selected text");
    

  • If selected text is a single word (like a variable name):

    console.log("👉🏻 --->| variable: ", variable);
    

• Customizable marker

  • You can configure the prefix (👉🏻 --->|) via settings.

⚙️ Extension Settings

• consoleLogManager.removeAllDebugLogs
