Install

go get github.com/gookit/slog

Usage

slog is very simple to use and can be used without any configuration

Quick Start

package main

import (
	"github.com/gookit/slog"
)

func main() {
	slog.Info("info log message")
	slog.Warn("warning log message")
	slog.Infof("info log %s", "message")
	slog.Debugf("debug %s", "message")
}

Output:

[2020/07/16 12:19:33] [application] [INFO] [main.go:7] info log message  
[2020/07/16 12:19:33] [application] [WARNING] [main.go:8] warning log message  
[2020/07/16 12:19:33] [application] [INFO] [main.go:9] info log message  
[2020/07/16 12:19:33] [application] [DEBUG] [main.go:10] debug message  

Console Color

You can enable color on output logs to console. This is default

package main

import (
	"github.com/gookit/slog"
)

func main() {
	slog.Configure(func(logger *slog.SugaredLogger) {
		f := logger.Formatter.(*slog.TextFormatter)
		f.EnableColor = true
	})

	slog.Trace("this is a simple log message")
	slog.Debug("this is a simple log message")
	slog.Info("this is a simple log message")
	slog.Notice("this is a simple log message")
	slog.Warn("this is a simple log message")
	slog.Error("this is a simple log message")
	slog.Fatal("this is a simple log message")
}

Output:

• Change output format

Change the default logger output format.

slog.GetFormatter().(*slog.TextFormatter).Template = slog.NamedTemplate

Output:

Use JSON Format

package main

import (
	"github.com/gookit/slog"
)

func main() {
	// use JSON formatter
	slog.SetFormatter(slog.NewJSONFormatter())

	slog.Info("info log message")
	slog.Warn("warning log message")
	slog.WithData(slog.M{
		"key0": 134,
		"key1": "abc",
	}).Infof("info log %s", "message")

	r := slog.WithFields(slog.M{
		"category": "service",
		"IP": "127.0.0.1",
	})
	r.Infof("info %s", "message")
	r.Debugf("debug %s", "message")
}

Output:

{"channel":"application","data":{},"datetime":"2020/07/16 13:23:33","extra":{},"level":"INFO","message":"info log message"}
{"channel":"application","data":{},"datetime":"2020/07/16 13:23:33","extra":{},"level":"WARNING","message":"warning log message"}
{"channel":"application","data":{"key0":134,"key1":"abc"},"datetime":"2020/07/16 13:23:33","extra":{},"level":"INFO","message":"info log message"}
{"IP":"127.0.0.1","category":"service","channel":"application","datetime":"2020/07/16 13:23:33","extra":{},"level":"INFO","message":"info message"}
{"IP":"127.0.0.1","category":"service","channel":"application","datetime":"2020/07/16 13:23:33","extra":{},"level":"DEBUG","message":"debug message"}

Logs to file

package mypkg

import (
	"github.com/gookit/slog"
	"github.com/gookit/slog/handler"
)

func myfunc() {
	h1 := handler.MustFileHandler("/tmp/error.log", true)
	h1.Levels = slog.Levels{slog.PanicLevel, slog.ErrorLevel, slog.WarnLevel}

	h2 := handler.MustFileHandler("/tmp/info.log", true)
	h1.Levels = slog.Levels{slog.InfoLevel, slog.NoticeLevel, slog.DebugLevel, slog.TraceLevel}

	slog.PushHandler(h1)
	slog.PushHandler(h2)

	// add logs
	slog.Info("info message")
	slog.Error("error message")
}

---

How to use handler

Create handler

h1, err := handler.NewSimpleFile("info.log")

h2, err := handler.NewFileHandler("error.log")

h3, err := handler.NewFileHandler("error.log")

Push handler to logger

	// append to logger
	l := slog.PushHandler(h)

	// logging messages
	slog.Info("info message")
	slog.Warn("warn message")

New logger with handlers

	// for new logger
	l := slog.NewWithHandlers(h1, h2)

	// logging messages
	l.Info("info message")
	l.Warn("warn message")

Built-in Handlers

BufferedHandler

BufferedHandler - can wrapper an io.WriteCloser as an slog.Handler

package mypkg
import (
	"github.com/gookit/slog"
	"github.com/gookit/slog/handler"
	"github.com/stretchr/testify/assert"
)

func myfunc() {
	fpath := "./testdata/buffered-os-file.log"

	file, err := handler.QuickOpenFile(fpath)
	assert.NoError(t, err)

	bh := handler.NewBuffered(file, 2048)

	// new logger
	l := slog.NewWithHandlers(bh)

	// logging messages
	l.Info("buffered info message")
	l.Warn("buffered warn message")
}

ConsoleHandler

ConsoleHandler - output logs to the console terminal. support color by gookit/color.

Create:

func NewConsoleHandler(levels []slog.Level) *ConsoleHandler

EmailHandler

NewEmailHandler - output logs to email.

Create:

h := handler.NewEmailHandler(from EmailOption, toAddresses []string)

RotateFileHandler

RotateFileHandler - output log messages to file.

Create:

func NewRotateFile(filepath string) (*RotateFileHandler, error)
func NewRotateFileHandler(filepath string) (*RotateFileHandler, error)

TimeRotateFileHandler

TimeRotateFileHandler - output log messages to file.

Create:

func NewTimeRotateFile(filepath string) (*TimeRotateFileHandler, error)
func NewTimeRotateFileHandler(filepath string) (*TimeRotateFileHandler, error)

The rotating files format support:

const (
	EveryDay rotateTime = iota
	EveryHour
	Every30Minutes
	Every15Minutes
	EveryMinute
	EverySecond // only use for tests
)

file examples:

time-rotate-file.log
time-rotate-file.log.20201229_155753
time-rotate-file.log.20201229_155754

SizeRotateFileHandler

SizeRotateFileHandler - output log messages to file.

Create:

func NewSizeRotateFile(filepath string) (*SizeRotateFileHandler, error)
func NewSizeRotateFileHandler(filepath string) (*SizeRotateFileHandler, error)

The rotating files format is filename.log.yMD_0000N. such as:

size-rotate-file.log
size-rotate-file.log.122915_00001
size-rotate-file.log.122915_00002

SimpleFileHandler

SimpleFileHandler - direct write log messages to a file. Not recommended for production environment

Create:

func NewSimpleFile(filepath string) (*SimpleFileHandler, error)
func NewSimpleFileHandler(filepath string) (*SimpleFileHandler, error)

Custom Logger

Create New Logger

You can create a new instance of slog.Logger:

• Method 1：

l := slog.New()
// add handlers ...
h1 := handler.NewConsoleHandler(slog.AllLevels)
l.AddHandlers(h1)

• Method 2：

l := slog.NewWithName("myLogger")
// add handlers ...
h1 := handler.NewConsoleHandler(slog.AllLevels)
l.AddHandlers(h1)

• Method 3：

package main

import (
	"github.com/gookit/slog"
	"github.com/gookit/slog/handler"
)

func main() {
	l := slog.NewWithHandlers(handler.NewConsoleHandler(slog.AllLevels))
	l.Info("message")
}

Create New Handler

you only need implement the slog.Handler interface:

package mypkg

import (
	"github.com/gookit/slog"
	"github.com/gookit/slog/handler"
)

type MyHandler struct {
	handler.LevelsWithFormatter
}

func (h *MyHandler) Handle(r *slog.Record) error {
	// you can write log message to file or send to remote.
}

add handler to default logger:

slog.AddHander(&MyHandler{})

or add to custom logger:

l := slog.New()
l.AddHander(&MyHandler{})

Create New Processor

you only need implement the slog.Processor interface:

package mypkg

import (
	"github.com/gookit/slog"
	"github.com/gookit/slog/handler"
)

// AddHostname to record
func AddHostname() slog.Processor {
	hostname, _ := os.Hostname()

	return slog.ProcessorFunc(func(record *slog.Record) {
		record.AddField("hostname", hostname)
	})
}

add the processor:

slog.AddProcessor(mypkg.AddHostname())

or:

l := slog.New()
l.AddProcessor(mypkg.AddHostname())

Create New Formatter

you only need implement the slog.Formatter interface:

package mypkg

import (
	"github.com/gookit/slog"
)

type MyFormatter struct {
}

func (f *Formatter) Format(r *slog.Record) error {
	// format Record to text/JSON or other format.
}

add the formatter:

slog.SetFormatter(&mypkg.MyFormatter{})

OR:

l := slog.New()
h := &MyHandler{}
h.SetFormatter(&mypkg.MyFormatter{})

l.AddHander(h)

Introduction

slog handle workflow(like monolog):

         Processors
Logger -{
         Handlers -{ With Formatters

Processor

Processor - Logging Record processor.

You can use it to perform additional operations on the record before the log record reaches the Handler for processing, such as adding fields, adding extended information, etc.

Processor definition:

// Processor interface definition
type Processor interface {
	// Process record
	Process(record *Record)
}

Processor func wrapper definition:

// ProcessorFunc wrapper definition
type ProcessorFunc func(record *Record)

// Process record
func (fn ProcessorFunc) Process(record *Record) {
	fn(record)
}

Here we use the built-in processor slog.AddHostname as an example, it can add a new field hostname to each log record.

slog.AddProcessor(slog.AddHostname())

slog.Info("message")

Output:

{"channel":"application","level":"INFO","datetime":"2020/07/17 12:01:35","hostname":"InhereMac","data":{},"extra":{},"message":"message"}

Handler

Handler - Log processor, each log will be processed by Handler.Handle(), where you can send the log to the console, file, or remote server.

You can customize any Handler you want, you only need to implement the slog.Handler interface.

// Handler interface definition
type Handler interface {
	// Close handler
	io.Closer
	// Flush logs to disk
	Flush() error
	// IsHandling Checks whether the given record will be handled by this handler.
	IsHandling(level Level) bool
	// Handle a log record.
	// all records may be passed to this method, and the handler should discard
	// those that it does not want to handle.
	Handle(*Record) error
}

Note: Remember to add the Handler to the logger instance before the log records will be processed by the Handler.

Formatter

Formatter - Log data formatting.

It is usually set in Handler, which can be used to format log records, convert records into text, JSON, etc., Handler then writes the formatted data to the specified place.

Formatter definition:

// Formatter interface
type Formatter interface {
	Format(record *Record) ([]byte, error)
}

Formatter function wrapper:

// FormatterFunc wrapper definition
type FormatterFunc func(r *Record) ([]byte, error)

// Format an record
func (fn FormatterFunc) Format(r *Record) ([]byte, error) {
	return fn(r)
}

JSON Formatter

type JSONFormatter struct {
	// Fields exported log fields.
	Fields []string
	// Aliases for output fields. you can change export field name.
	// item: `"field" : "output name"`
	// eg: {"message": "msg"} export field will display "msg"
	Aliases StringMap

	// PrettyPrint will indent all json logs
	PrettyPrint bool
	// TimeFormat the time format layout. default is time.RFC3339
	TimeFormat string
}

Text Formatter

default templates:

const DefaultTemplate = "[{{datetime}}] [{{channel}}] [{{level}}] [{{caller}}] {{message}} {{data}} {{extra}}\n"
const NamedTemplate = "{{datetime}} channel={{channel}} level={{level}} [file={{caller}}] message={{message}} data={{data}}\n"
