The console.trace() method is an inbuilt application programming interface of the console module which is used to print stack trace messages to stderr in a newline. Similar to console.error() method.
Syntax:
console.trace(message, args);
Parameters: This method has two parameters as mentioned above and described below:
Return Value: This method doesn't return anything but print the 'Trace:' string followed by the formatted message to stderr in a newline and stack trace to the current position in the code.
Example 1: The below examples illustrate the use of console.trace() method in Node.js.
Filename: app.js
javascript
// Node.js program to demonstrate the
// console.trace() method
// Accessing console module
const console = require('console');
// Calling console.trace() method
console.trace("stack teace sample");
console.trace(
"stack trace sample with args: %d", 39);
Run the app.js file using the following command:
node app.js
Output:
Trace: stack teace sample
