klog

klog is a permanent fork of https://github.com/golang/glog.

Why was klog created?

The decision to create klog was one that wasn't made lightly, but it was necessary due to some drawbacks that are present in glog. Ultimately, the fork was created due to glog not being under active development; this can be seen in the glog README:

The code in this repo [...] is not itself under development

This makes us unable to solve many use cases without a fork. The factors that contributed to needing feature development are listed below:

  • glog presents a lot "gotchas" and introduces challenges in containerized environments, all of which aren't well documented.
  • glog doesn't provide an easy way to test logs, which detracts from the stability of software using it
  • A long term goal is to implement a logging interface that allows us to add context, change output format, etc.

Historical context is available here:

How to use klog

  • Replace imports for github.com/golang/glog with k8s.io/klog
  • Use klog.InitFlags(nil) explicitly for initializing global flags as we no longer use init() method to register the flags
  • You can now use log-file instead of log-dir for logging to a single file (See examples/log_file/usage_log_file.go)
  • If you want to redirect everything logged using klog somewhere else (say syslog!), you can use klog.SetOutput() method and supply a io.Writer. (See examples/set_output/usage_set_output.go)
  • For more logging conventions (See Logging Conventions)
Coexisting with glog

This package can be used side by side with glog. This example shows how to initialize and syncronize flags from the global flag.CommandLine FlagSet. In addition, the example makes use of stderr as combined output by setting alsologtostderr (or logtostderr) to true.

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 https://github.com/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")

The repository contains an open source version of the log package used inside Google. The master copy of the source lives inside Google, not here. The code in this repo is for export only and is not itself under development. Feature requests will be ignored.

Documentation

Overview

Package klog 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 standard error. This package provides several flags that modify this behavior. As a result, flag.Parse must be called before any logging is done. 

-logtostderr=true
	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 (minus the ".go" suffix) or
	"glob" pattern and N is a V level. For instance,
		-vmodule=gopher*=3
	sets the V level to 3 in all Go files whose names begin "gopher".

Variables

View Source 
var MaxSize uint64 = 1024 * 1024 * 1800

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

View Source 
var Stats struct {
	Info, Warning, Error OutputStats
}

Stats tracks the number of lines of output and number of bytes per severity level. Values must be read with atomic.LoadInt64.

Functions

func CalculateMaxSize added in v0.3.0 

func CalculateMaxSize() uint64

CalculateMaxSize returns the real max size in bytes after considering the default max size and the flag options.

func CopyStandardLogTo 

func CopyStandardLogTo(name string)

Types

type Level 

type Level int32

Level specifies a level of verbosity for V logs. *Level implements flag.Value; the -v flag is of type Level and should be modified only through the flag.Value interface.

func (*Level) Get 

func (l *Level) Get() interface{}

Get is part of the flag.Value interface.

func (*Level) Set 

func (l *Level) Set(value string) error

Set is part of the flag.Value interface.

func (*Level) String 

func (l *Level) String() string

String is part of the flag.Value interface.

type OutputStats 

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

OutputStats tracks the number of output lines and bytes written.

func (*OutputStats) Bytes 

func (s *OutputStats) Bytes() int64

Bytes returns the number of bytes written.

func (*OutputStats) Lines 

func (s *OutputStats) Lines() int64

Lines returns the number of lines written.

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.

func (Verbose) Info 

func (v Verbose) Info(args ...interface{})

Info is equivalent to the global Info function, guarded by the value of v. See the documentation of V for usage.

func (Verbose) Infof 

func (v Verbose) Infof(format string, args ...interface{})

Infof is equivalent to the global Infof function, guarded by the value of v. See the documentation of V for usage.

func (Verbose) Infoln 

func (v Verbose) Infoln(args ...interface{})

Infoln is equivalent to the global Infoln function, guarded by the value of v. See the documentation of V for usage.
