log15 godoc reference Build Status

Package log15 provides an opinionated, simple toolkit for best-practice logging in Go (golang) that is both human and machine readable. It is modeled after the Go standard library's io and net/http packages and is an alternative to the standard library's log package.

Features

  • A simple, easy-to-understand API
  • Promotes structured logging by encouraging use of key/value pairs
  • Child loggers which inherit and add their own private context
  • Lazy evaluation of expensive operations
  • Simple Handler interface allowing for construction of flexible, custom logging configurations with a tiny API.
  • Color terminal support
  • Built-in support for logging to files, streams, syslog, and the network
  • Support for forking records to multiple handlers, buffering records for output, failing over from failed handler writes, + more

Versioning

The API of the master branch of log15 should always be considered unstable. If you want to rely on a stable API, you must vendor the library.

Importing

import log "github.com/inconshreveable/log15"

Examples

// all loggers can have key/value context
srvlog := log.New("module", "app/server")

// all log messages can have key/value context
srvlog.Warn("abnormal conn rate", "rate", curRate, "low", lowRate, "high", highRate)

// child loggers with inherited context
connlog := srvlog.New("raddr", c.RemoteAddr())
connlog.Info("connection open")

// lazy evaluation
connlog.Debug("ping remote", "latency", log.Lazy{pingRemote})

// flexible configuration
srvlog.SetHandler(log.MultiHandler(
    log.StreamHandler(os.Stderr, log.LogfmtFormat()),
    log.LvlFilterHandler(
        log.LvlError,
        log.Must.FileHandler("errors.json", log.JSONFormat()))))

Will result in output that looks like this:

WARN[06-17|21:58:10] abnormal conn rate                       module=app/server rate=0.500 low=0.100 high=0.800
INFO[06-17|21:58:10] connection open                          module=app/server raddr=10.0.0.1

Breaking API Changes

The following commits broke API stability. This reference is intended to help you understand the consequences of updating to a newer version of log15.

  • 57a084d014d4150152b19e4e531399a7145d1540 - Added a Get() method to the Logger interface to retrieve the current handler
  • 93404652ee366648fa622b64d1e2b67d75a3094a - Record field Call changed to stack.Call with switch to github.com/go-stack/stack
  • a5e7613673c73281f58e15a87d2cf0cf111e8152 - Restored syslog.Priority argument to the SyslogXxx handler constructors

FAQ

The varargs style is brittle and error prone! Can I have type safety please?

Yes. Use log.Ctx:

srvlog := log.New(log.Ctx{"module": "app/server"})
srvlog.Warn("abnormal conn rate", log.Ctx{"rate": curRate, "low": lowRate, "high": highRate})

Overview

Package log15 provides an opinionated, simple toolkit for best-practice logging that is both human and machine readable. It is modeled after the standard library's io and net/http packages.

This package enforces you to only log key/value pairs. Keys must be strings. Values may be any type that you like. The default output format is logfmt, but you may also choose to use JSON instead if that suits you. Here's how you log: 

log.Info("page accessed", "path", r.URL.Path, "user_id", user.id)

This will output a line that looks like: 

lvl=info t=2014-05-02T16:07:23-0700 msg="page accessed" path=/org/71/profile user_id=9

Getting Started

To get started, you'll want to import the library: 

import log "github.com/inconshreveable/log15"

Now you're ready to start logging: 

func main() {
    log.Info("Program starting", "args", os.Args())
}

Convention

Because recording a human-meaningful message is common and good practice, the first argument to every logging method is the value to the *implicit* key 'msg'.

Additionally, the level you choose for a message will be automatically added with the key 'lvl', and so will the current timestamp with key 't'.

You may supply any additional context as a set of key/value pairs to the logging function. log15 allows you to favor terseness, ordering, and speed over safety. This is a reasonable tradeoff for logging functions. You don't need to explicitly state keys/values, log15 understands that they alternate in the variadic argument list: 

log.Warn("size out of bounds", "low", lowBound, "high", highBound, "val", val)

If you really do favor your type-safety, you may choose to pass a log.Ctx instead: 

log.Warn("size out of bounds", log.Ctx{"low": lowBound, "high": highBound, "val": val})

Context loggers

Frequently, you want to add context to a logger so that you can track actions associated with it. An http request is a good example. You can easily create new loggers that have context that is automatically included with each log line: 

requestlogger := log.New("path", r.URL.Path)

// later
requestlogger.Debug("db txn commit", "duration", txnTimer.Finish())

This will output a log line that includes the path context that is attached to the logger: 

lvl=dbug t=2014-05-02T16:07:23-0700 path=/repo/12/add_hook msg="db txn commit" duration=0.12

Handlers

The Handler interface defines where log lines are printed to and how they are formated. Handler is a single interface that is inspired by net/http's handler interface: 

type Handler interface {
    Log(r *Record) error
}

Handlers can filter records, format them, or dispatch to multiple other Handlers. This package implements a number of Handlers for common logging patterns that are easily composed to create flexible, custom logging structures.

Here's an example handler that prints logfmt output to Stdout: 

handler := log.StreamHandler(os.Stdout, log.LogfmtFormat())

Here's an example handler that defers to two other handlers. One handler only prints records from the rpc package in logfmt to standard out. The other prints records at Error level or above in JSON formatted output to the file /var/log/service.json 

handler := log.MultiHandler(
    log.LvlFilterHandler(log.LvlError, log.Must.FileHandler("/var/log/service.json", log.JSONFormat())),
    log.MatchFilterHandler("pkg", "app/rpc" log.StdoutHandler())
)

Logging File Names and Line Numbers

This package implements three Handlers that add debugging information to the context, CallerFileHandler, CallerFuncHandler and CallerStackHandler. Here's an example that adds the source file and line number of each logging call to the context. 

h := log.CallerFileHandler(log.StdoutHandler)
log.Root().SetHandler(h)
...
log.Error("open file", "err", err)

This will output a line that looks like: 

lvl=eror t=2014-05-02T16:07:23-0700 msg="open file" err="file not found" caller=data.go:42

Here's an example that logs the call stack rather than just the call site. 

h := log.CallerStackHandler("%+v", log.StdoutHandler)
log.Root().SetHandler(h)
...
log.Error("open file", "err", err)

This will output a line that looks like: 

lvl=eror t=2014-05-02T16:07:23-0700 msg="open file" err="file not found" stack="[pkg/data.go:42 pkg/cmd/main.go]"

The "%+v" format instructs the handler to include the path of the source file relative to the compile time GOPATH. The github.com/go-stack/stack package documents the full list of formatting verbs and modifiers available.

Custom Handlers

The Handler interface is so simple that it's also trivial to write your own. Let's create an example handler which tries to write to one handler, but if that fails it falls back to writing to another handler and includes the error that it encountered when trying to write to the primary. This might be useful when trying to log over a network socket, but if that fails you want to log those records to a file on disk. 

type BackupHandler struct {
    Primary Handler
    Secondary Handler
}

func (h *BackupHandler) Log (r *Record) error {
    err := h.Primary.Log(r)
    if err != nil {
        r.Ctx = append(ctx, "primary_err", err)
        return h.Secondary.Log(r)
    }
    return nil
}

This pattern is so useful that a generic version that handles an arbitrary number of Handlers is included as part of this library called FailoverHandler.

Logging Expensive Operations

Sometimes, you want to log values that are extremely expensive to compute, but you don't want to pay the price of computing them if you haven't turned up your logging level to a high level of detail.

This package provides a simple type to annotate a logging operation that you want to be evaluated lazily, just when it is about to be logged, so that it would not be evaluated if an upstream Handler filters it out. Just wrap any function which takes no arguments with the log.Lazy type. For example: 

func factorRSAKey() (factors []int) {
    // return the factors of a very large number
}

log.Debug("factors", log.Lazy{factorRSAKey})

If this message is not logged for any reason (like logging at the Error level), then factorRSAKey is never evaluated.

Dynamic context values

The same log.Lazy mechanism can be used to attach context to a logger which you want to be evaluated when the message is logged, but not when the logger is created. For example, let's imagine a game where you have Player objects: 

type Player struct {
    name string
    alive bool
    log.Logger
}

You always want to log a player's name and whether they're alive or dead, so when you create the player object, you might do: 

p := &Player{name: name, alive: true}
p.Logger = log.New("name", p.name, "alive", p.alive)

Only now, even after a player has died, the logger will still report they are alive because the logging context is evaluated when the logger was created. By using the Lazy wrapper, we can defer the evaluation of whether the player is alive or not to each log message, so that the log records will reflect the player's current state no matter when the log message is written: 

p := &Player{name: name, alive: true}
isAlive := func() bool { return p.alive }
player.Logger = log.New("name", p.name, "alive", log.Lazy{isAlive})

Terminal Format

If log15 detects that stdout is a terminal, it will configure the default handler for it (which is log.StdoutHandler) to use TerminalFormat. This format logs records nicely for your terminal, including color-coded output based on log level.

Error Handling

Becasuse log15 allows you to step around the type system, there are a few ways you can specify invalid arguments to the logging functions. You could, for example, wrap something that is not a zero-argument function with log.Lazy or pass a context key that is not a string. Since logging libraries are typically the mechanism by which errors are reported, it would be onerous for the logging functions to return errors. Instead, log15 handles errors by making these guarantees to you:

- Any log record containing an error will still be printed with the error explained to you as part of the log record.

- Any log record containing an error will include the context key LOG15_ERROR, enabling you to easily (and if you like, automatically) detect if any of your logging calls are passing bad values.

Understanding this, you might wonder why the Handler interface can return an error value in its Log method. Handlers are encouraged to return errors only if they fail to write their log records out to an external source like if the syslog daemon is not responding. This allows the construction of useful handlers which cope with those failures like the FailoverHandler.

Library Use

log15 is intended to be useful for library authors as a way to provide configurable logging to users of their library. Best practice for use in a library is to always disable all output for your logger by default and to provide a public Logger instance that consumers of your library can configure. Like so: 

package yourlib

import "github.com/inconshreveable/log15"

var Log = log.New()

func init() {
    Log.SetHandler(log.DiscardHandler())
}

Users of your library may then enable it if they like: 

import "github.com/inconshreveable/log15"
import "example.com/yourlib"

func main() {
    handler := // custom handler setup
    yourlib.Log.SetHandler(handler)
}

Best practices attaching logger context

The ability to attach context to a logger is a powerful one. Where should you do it and why? I favor embedding a Logger directly into any persistent object in my application and adding unique, tracing context keys to it. For instance, imagine I am writing a web browser: 

type Tab struct {
    url string
    render *RenderingContext
    // ...

    Logger
}

func NewTab(url string) *Tab {
    return &Tab {
        // ...
        url: url,

        Logger: log.New("url", url),
    }
}

When a new tab is created, I assign a logger to it with the url of the tab as context so it can easily be traced through the logs. Now, whenever we perform any operation with the tab, we'll log with its embedded logger and it will include the tab title automatically: 

tab.Debug("moved position", "idx", tab.idx)

There's only one problem. What if the tab url changes? We could use log.Lazy to make sure the current url is always written, but that would mean that we couldn't trace a tab's full lifetime through our logs after the user navigate to a new URL.

Instead, think about what values to attach to your loggers the same way you think about what to use as a key in a SQL database schema. If it's possible to use a natural key that is unique for the lifetime of the object, do so. But otherwise, log15's ext package has a handy RandId function to let you generate what you might call "surrogate keys" They're just random hex identifiers to use for tracing. Back to our Tab example, we would prefer to set up our Logger like so: 

import logext "github.com/inconshreveable/log15/ext"

t := &Tab {
    // ...
    url: url,
}

t.Logger = log.New("id", logext.RandId(8), "url", log.Lazy{t.getUrl})
return t

Now we'll have a unique traceable identifier even across loading new urls, but we'll still be able to see the tab's current url in the log messages.

Must

For all Handler functions which can return an error, there is a version of that function which will return no error but panics on failure. They are all available on the Must object. For example: 

log.Must.FileHandler("/path", log.JSONFormat)
log.Must.NetHandler("tcp", ":1234", log.JSONFormat)

type GlogHandler 

type GlogHandler struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

GlogHandler is a log handler that mimics the filtering features of Google's glog logger: setting global log levels; overriding with callsite pattern matches; and requesting backtraces at certain positions.

func NewGlogHandler 

func NewGlogHandler(h Handler) *GlogHandler

NewGlogHandler creates a new log handler with filtering functionality similar to Google's glog logger. The returned handler implements Handler.

func (*GlogHandler) BacktraceAt 

func (h *GlogHandler) BacktraceAt(location string) error

BacktraceAt sets the glog backtrace location. When set to a file and line number holding a logging statement, a stack trace will be written to the Info log whenever execution hits that statement.

Unlike with Vmodule, the ".go" must be present.

func (*GlogHandler) Log 

func (h *GlogHandler) Log(r *Record) error

Log implements Handler.Log, filtering a log record through the global, local and backtrace filters, finally emitting it if either allow it through.

func (*GlogHandler) SetHandler added in v1.8.13 

func (h *GlogHandler) SetHandler(nh Handler)

SetHandler updates the handler to write records to the specified sub-handler.

func (*GlogHandler) Verbosity 

func (h *GlogHandler) Verbosity(level Lvl)

Verbosity sets the glog verbosity ceiling. The verbosity of individual packages and source files can be raised using Vmodule.

func (*GlogHandler) Vmodule 

func (h *GlogHandler) Vmodule(ruleset string) error

Vmodule sets the glog verbosity pattern.

The syntax of the argument is a comma-separated list of pattern=N, where the pattern is a literal file name or "glob" pattern matching and N is a V level.

For instance: 

pattern="gopher.go=3"
 sets the V level to 3 in all Go files named "gopher.go"

pattern="foo=3"
 sets V to 3 in all files of any packages whose import path ends in "foo"

pattern="foo/*=3"
 sets V to 3 in all files of any packages whose import path contains "foo"

type Handler 

type Handler interface {
	Log(r *Record) error
}

Handler defines where and how log records are written. A Logger prints its log records by writing to a Handler. Handlers are composable, providing you great flexibility in combining them to achieve the logging structure that suits your applications.

func BufferedHandler 

func BufferedHandler(bufSize int, h Handler) Handler

BufferedHandler writes all records to a buffered channel of the given size which flushes into the wrapped handler whenever it is available for writing. Since these writes happen asynchronously, all writes to a BufferedHandler never return an error and any errors from the wrapped handler are ignored.

func CallerFileHandler 

func CallerFileHandler(h Handler) Handler

CallerFileHandler returns a Handler that adds the line number and file of the calling function to the context with key "caller".

func CallerFuncHandler 

func CallerFuncHandler(h Handler) Handler

CallerFuncHandler returns a Handler that adds the calling function name to the context with key "fn".

func CallerStackHandler 

func CallerStackHandler(format string, h Handler) Handler

CallerStackHandler returns a Handler that adds a stack trace to the context with key "stack". The stack trace is formated as a space separated list of call sites inside matching []'s. The most recent call site is listed first. Each call site is formatted according to format. See the documentation of package github.com/go-stack/stack for the list of supported formats.

func ChannelHandler 

func ChannelHandler(recs chan<- *Record) Handler

ChannelHandler writes all records to the given channel. It blocks if the channel is full. Useful for async processing of log messages, it's used by BufferedHandler.

func DiscardHandler 

func DiscardHandler() Handler

DiscardHandler reports success for all writes but does nothing. It is useful for dynamically disabling logging at runtime via a Logger's SetHandler method.

func FailoverHandler 

func FailoverHandler(hs ...Handler) Handler

FailoverHandler writes all log records to the first handler specified, but will failover and write to the second handler if the first handler has failed, and so on for all handlers specified. For example you might want to log to a network socket, but failover to writing to a file if the network fails, and then to standard out if the file write fails: 

log.FailoverHandler(
    log.Must.NetHandler("tcp", ":9090", log.JSONFormat()),
    log.Must.FileHandler("/var/log/app.log", log.LogfmtFormat()),
    log.StdoutHandler)

All writes that do not go to the first handler will add context with keys of the form "failover_err_{idx}" which explain the error encountered while trying to write to the handlers before them in the list.

func FileHandler 

func FileHandler(path string, fmtr Format) (Handler, error)

FileHandler returns a handler which writes log records to the give file using the given format. If the path already exists, FileHandler will append to the given file. If it does not, FileHandler will create the file with mode 0644.

func FilterHandler 

func FilterHandler(fn func(r *Record) bool, h Handler) Handler

FilterHandler returns a Handler that only writes records to the wrapped Handler if the given function evaluates true. For example, to only log records where the 'err' key is not nil: 

logger.SetHandler(FilterHandler(func(r *Record) bool {
    for i := 0; i < len(r.Ctx); i += 2 {
        if r.Ctx[i] == "err" {
            return r.Ctx[i+1] != nil
        }
    }
    return false
}, h))

func FuncHandler 

func FuncHandler(fn func(r *Record) error) Handler

FuncHandler returns a Handler that logs records with the given function.

func LazyHandler 

func LazyHandler(h Handler) Handler

LazyHandler writes all values to the wrapped handler after evaluating any lazy functions in the record's context. It is already wrapped around StreamHandler and SyslogHandler in this library, you'll only need it if you write your own Handler.

func LvlFilterHandler 

func LvlFilterHandler(maxLvl Lvl, h Handler) Handler

LvlFilterHandler returns a Handler that only writes records which are less than the given verbosity level to the wrapped Handler. For example, to only log Error/Crit records: 

log.LvlFilterHandler(log.LvlError, log.StdoutHandler)

func MatchFilterHandler 

func MatchFilterHandler(key string, value interface{}, h Handler) Handler

MatchFilterHandler returns a Handler that only writes records to the wrapped Handler if the given key in the logged context matches the value. For example, to only log records from your ui package: 

log.MatchFilterHandler("pkg", "app/ui", log.StdoutHandler)

func MultiHandler 

func MultiHandler(hs ...Handler) Handler

MultiHandler dispatches any write to each of its handlers. This is useful for writing different types of log information to different locations. For example, to log to a file and standard error: 

log.MultiHandler(
    log.Must.FileHandler("/var/log/app.log", log.LogfmtFormat()),
    log.StderrHandler)

func NetHandler 

func NetHandler(network, addr string, fmtr Format) (Handler, error)

NetHandler opens a socket to the given address and writes records over the connection.

func RotatingFileHandler added in v1.8.13 

func RotatingFileHandler(path string, limit uint, formatter Format) (Handler, error)

RotatingFileHandler returns a handler which writes log records to file chunks at the given path. When a file's size reaches the limit, the handler creates a new file named after the timestamp of the first log record it will contain.

func StreamHandler 

func StreamHandler(wr io.Writer, fmtr Format) Handler

StreamHandler writes log records to an io.Writer with the given format. StreamHandler can be used to easily begin writing log records to other outputs.

StreamHandler wraps itself with LazyHandler and SyncHandler to evaluate Lazy objects and perform safe concurrent writes.

func SyncHandler 

func SyncHandler(h Handler) Handler

SyncHandler can be wrapped around a handler to guarantee that only a single Log operation can proceed at a time. It's necessary for thread-safe concurrent writes.

func SyslogHandler 

func SyslogHandler(priority syslog.Priority, tag string, fmtr Format) (Handler, error)

SyslogHandler opens a connection to the system syslog daemon by calling syslog.New and writes all records to it.

func SyslogNetHandler 

func SyslogNetHandler(net, addr string, priority syslog.Priority, tag string, fmtr Format) (Handler, error)

SyslogNetHandler opens a connection to a log daemon over the network and writes all log records to it.

type Lazy 

type Lazy struct {
	Fn interface{}
}

Lazy allows you to defer calculation of a logged value that is expensive to compute until it is certain that it must be evaluated with the given filters.

Lazy may also be used in conjunction with a Logger's New() function to generate a child logger which always reports the current value of changing state.

You may wrap any function which takes no arguments to Lazy. It may return any number of values of any type.

type Logger 

type Logger interface {
	// New returns a new Logger that has this logger's context plus the given context
	New(ctx ...interface{}) Logger

	// GetHandler gets the handler associated with the logger.
	GetHandler() Handler

	// SetHandler updates the logger to write records to the specified handler.
	SetHandler(h Handler)

	// Log a message at the given level with context key/value pairs
	Trace(msg string, ctx ...interface{})
	Debug(msg string, ctx ...interface{})
	Info(msg string, ctx ...interface{})
	Warn(msg string, ctx ...interface{})
	Error(msg string, ctx ...interface{})
	Crit(msg string, ctx ...interface{})
}

A Logger writes key/value pairs to a Handler

func New 

func New(ctx ...interface{}) Logger

New returns a new logger with the given context. New is a convenient alias for Root().New

func Root 

func Root() Logger

Root returns the root logger

type Lvl 

type Lvl int
const (
	LvlCrit Lvl = iota
	LvlError
	LvlWarn
	LvlInfo
	LvlDebug
	LvlTrace
)

func LvlFromString 

func LvlFromString(lvlString string) (Lvl, error)

LvlFromString returns the appropriate Lvl from a string name. Useful for parsing command line args and configuration files.

func (Lvl) AlignedString 

func (l Lvl) AlignedString() string

AlignedString returns a 5-character string containing the name of a Lvl.

func (Lvl) String 

func (l Lvl) String() string

Strings returns the name of a Lvl.

type Record 

type Record struct {
	Time     time.Time
	Lvl      Lvl
	Msg      string
	Ctx      []interface{}
	Call     stack.Call
	KeyNames RecordKeyNames
}

A Record is what a Logger asks its handler to write

type RecordKeyNames 

type RecordKeyNames struct {
	Time string
	Msg  string
	Lvl  string
	Ctx  string
}

RecordKeyNames gets stored in a Record when the write function is executed.
