This is regarding the following small demo project:
https://github.com/lockerfish/nodejs-socket-io-chat/blob/master/chat.js
Has a console.log in it (line 32 of chat.js) that I can never trigger. I also cannot get any other console.log to output anything. The chat server works as expected… but I can’t get console log to work at all. Quite simply, nothing gets output to console, period.
Why would this be? Does it have something to do with nodejs? Maybe with socket.io? Obviously I’m new to this but not to javascript in general. What am I missing here?
I think it’s just that you are looking for the console.log output in the web-browser and not in the terminal. When I tried it it worked fine.
All the console.logs in the scripts that node runs is outputted to the window/terminal that starts the script.
