How to quickly and conveniently disable all console.log statements in my code?

Question

Is there any way to turn off all console.log statements in my JavaScript code, for testing purposes?

Answer 1

This a hybrid of answers from SolutionYogi and Chris S. It maintains the console.log line numbers and file name. Example jsFiddle.

// Avoid global functions via a self calling anonymous one (uses jQuery)
(function(MYAPP, $, undefined) {
    // Prevent errors in browsers without console.log
    if (!window.console) window.console = {};
    if (!window.console.log) window.console.log = function(){};

    //Private var
    var console_log = console.log;  

    //Public methods
    MYAPP.enableLog = function enableLogger() { console.log = console_log; };   
    MYAPP.disableLog = function disableLogger() { console.log = function() {}; };

}(window.MYAPP = window.MYAPP || {}, jQuery));


// Example Usage:
$(function() {    
    MYAPP.disableLog();    
    console.log('this should not show');

    MYAPP.enableLog();
    console.log('This will show');
});
