How to use other log modules than Logger4

import Logger4 from 'logger4';

const logger = new Logger4({
    printEnabled: false,
    path: null,
    directorySizeLimitMB: null
});

const x = new XAPI({...loginConfig, logger});

x.logger.on((tag, log, type, params) => {
    // You can bind your log module here
    console.log({
        tag,
        log,
        type,
        params
