Types

type Logger

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

Logger provides support to throw log lines away if log writes start to timeout due to latency.

func New

func New(w io.Writer, capacity int) *Logger

New creates a logger value and initializes it for use. The user can pass the size of the buffer to use for continuity.

func (*Logger) Shutdown

func (l *Logger) Shutdown()

Shutdown closes the logger and wait for the writer goroutine to terminate.

func (*Logger) Write

func (l *Logger) Write(data string)

Write is used to write the data to the log.
