glog
====

Leveled execution logs for Go.

This is an efficient pure Go implementation of leveled logs in the
manner of the open source C++ package
	http://code.google.com/p/google-glog

By binding methods to booleans it is possible to use the log package
without paying the expense of evaluating the arguments to the log.
Through the -vmodule flag, the package also provides fine-grained
control over logging at the file level.

The comment from glog.go introduces the ideas:

	Package glog implements logging analogous to the Google-internal
	C++ INFO/ERROR/V setup.  It provides functions Info, Warning,
	Error, Fatal, plus formatting variants such as Infof. It
	also provides V-style logging controlled by the -v and
	-vmodule=file=2 flags.

	Basic examples:

		glog.Info("Prepare to repel boarders")

		glog.Fatalf("Initialization failed: %s", err)

	See the documentation for the V function for an explanation
	of these examples:

		if glog.V(2) {
			glog.Info("Starting transaction...")
		}

		glog.V(2).Infoln("Processed", nItems, "elements")

Documentation

Overview

Package glog implements logging analogous to the Google-internal C++ INFO/ERROR/V setup. It provides functions Info, Warning, Error, Fatal, plus formatting variants such as Infof. It also provides V-style logging controlled by the -v and -vmodule=file=2 flags.

Basic examples: 

glog.Info("Prepare to repel boarders")

glog.Fatalf("Initialization failed: %s", err)

See the documentation for the V function for an explanation of these examples: 

if glog.V(2) {
	glog.Info("Starting transaction...")
}

glog.V(2).Infoln("Processed", nItems, "elements")

Log output is buffered and written periodically using Flush. Programs should call Flush before exiting to guarantee all log output is written.

By default, all log statements write to files in a temporary directory. This package provides several flags that modify this behavior. As a result, flag.Parse must be called before any logging is done. 

-logtostderr=false
	Logs are written to standard error instead of to files.
-alsologtostderr=false
	Logs are written to standard error as well as to files.
-stderrthreshold=ERROR
	Log events at or above this severity are logged to standard
	error as well as to files.
-log_dir=""
	Log files will be written to this directory instead of the
	default temporary directory.

Other flags provide aids to debugging.

-log_backtrace_at=""
	When set to a file and line number holding a logging statement,
	such as
		-log_backtrace_at=gopherflakes.go:234
	a stack trace will be written to the Info log whenever execution
	hits that statement. (Unlike with -vmodule, the ".go" must be
	present.)
-v=0
	Enable V-leveled logging at the specified level.
-vmodule=""
	The syntax of the argument is a comma-separated list of pattern=N,
	where pattern is a literal file name or "glob" pattern matching
	and N is a V level. For instance,

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

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

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

This fork of original golang/glog adds log rotation functionality. Logs are rotated after reaching file size limit or age limit. Additionally limiting total amount of logs is supported (also by both size and age). To keep it simple, log-rotation is configured with package-level variables:

  • MaxSize - maximum file size (in bytes) - default value: 1024 * 1024 * 1800
  • MinSize - minimum file size (in bytes) - default 0 (even empty file can be rotated)
  • MaxTotalSize - maximum size of all files (in bytes) - default 0 (do not remove old files)
  • RotationInterval - how often log should be rotated - default Never
  • MaxAge - maximum age (time.Duration) of log file - default 0 (do not remove old files)
  • Compress - whether to GZIP compress rotated logs - default - false

Default values provide backward-compatibility with golang/glog. If compression is used, all files except the current one are compressed with GZIP.

Rotation works like this:

  • if MaxSize or RotationInterval is reached, and file size is > MinSize, current file became old file, and new file is created as a current log file
  • all log files older than MaxAge are removed
  • if compression is enabled, the old file is compressed
  • size of all log files in log_dir is recalculated (to handle external removals of files, etc)
  • oldest log files are removed until total size of log files doesn't exceed MaxTotalSize-MaxSize

For sanity, this action is executed only when current file is needs to be rotated

MaxSize is the maximum size of a log file in bytes.

View Source 
var MaxTotalSize uint64

MaxTotalSize is a maximum size of all log files.

View Source 
var MinSize uint64

MinSize is a minimum file size qualifying for rotation. This variable can be used to avoid rotation of empty or almost emtpy files.

View Source 
var RotationInterval = Never

RotationInterval determines how often log rotation should take place

func (*TraceLocation) String

type Verbose 

type Verbose bool

Verbose is a boolean type that implements Infof (like Printf) etc. See the documentation of V for more information.

func V 

func V(level Level) Verbose

V reports whether verbosity at the call site is at least the requested level. The returned value is a boolean of type Verbose, which implements Info, Infoln and Infof. These methods will write to the Info log if called. Thus, one may write either 

if glog.V(2) { glog.Info("log this") }

or 

glog.V(2).Info("log this")

The second form is shorter but the first is cheaper if logging is off because it does not evaluate its arguments.

Whether an individual call to V generates a log record depends on the setting of the -v and --vmodule flags; both are off by default. If the level in the call to V is at least the value of -v, or of -vmodule for the source file containing the call, the V call will log.
