ConsoleTracing

org.llm4s.trace.ConsoleTracing
class ConsoleTracing extends Tracing

Console-based Tracing implementation with colored, formatted output.

Prints trace events to standard output with ANSI color formatting for improved readability during development and debugging. Returns Result[Unit] to support functional composition.

== Features ==

  • Color-coded output by event type (errors in red, success in green, etc.)
  • Visual separators and headers for different trace sections
  • Formatted display of all TraceEvent types
  • Truncation of long JSON content for readability
  • Timestamps on all events

== Usage ==

val tracing: Tracing = new ConsoleTracing()

// Trace events functionally
for {
 _ <- tracing.traceEvent(TraceEvent.AgentInitialized("query", Vector("tool1")))
 _ <- tracing.traceTokenUsage(TokenUsage(100, 50, 150), "gpt-4", "completion")
} yield ()
