I am developing chrome extension, and the thing that i really need is to get console output as object.

Is it possible to get any of that in chrome extension popup.html/popup.js or somewhere ?

I have tab object, can i get somehow that particular tabs console, or error output from the inspector/devtool in chrome console as object in code?
