While each Modus SDK offers similar capabilities, the APIs and usage may vary between languages.

Modus Console APIs documentation is available on the following pages:

The Modus Console APIs allow you to capture information from your functions, such as errors and other information that can help you debug your functions.

Unlike other APIs, the console namespace is globally available by default in all AssemblyScript functions, you don’t need to import it.

The Console APIs mimic the behavior of the AssemblyScript console object, but directs the output to Hypermode as follows:

  • All console output is available in the runtime logs. When hosting on Hypermode, the logs are available in the “Function Runs” section of the Console UI.
  • Output from console.error is also sent to the GraphQL response.
  • Errors thrown with the throw keyword are also sent to the GraphQL response.

Console APIs

The APIs in the console namespace are below, organized by category.

We’re constantly introducing new APIs through ongoing development with early users. Please open an issue if you have ideas on what would make Modus even more powerful for your next app!
