location of log

This is a very simple, but practical library for logging in applications. Its main feature is printing source code locations to make debugging easier.

terminals

Due to how so few terminals actually support source location hyperlinks, pretty much tilix and intellij terminal are the only two that really provide adequate functionality, this logging library defaults to output format that works best with intellij. As such, the terminal is aware of the CWD and the code locations printed are relative, as required to get the hyperlinkization from this terminal. Handling support for Tilix requires more complications and due to advances with IntelliJ's handling it is not practical to support any other for this purpose. Users of this library can always fall back to manually interpreting and accessing the relative file path to find the source of a log.

In addition, due to this terminal's slow rendering of long lines, long log strings are automatically broken into 80 character lines, and if there is comma separators in the line, the line is broken at the comma instead of at column80. This works perfectly for this purpose.

Types

type C

type C func(closure func() string)

C accepts a function so that the extra computation can be avoided if it is not being viewed

type Check

type Check struct {
	F, E, W, I, D, T Chk
}

type Chk

type Chk func(e error) bool

Chk is a shortcut for printing if there is an error, or returning true

type Entry

type Entry struct {
	Time         time.Time
	Level        string
	Package      string
	CodeLocation string
	Text         string
}

Entry is a log entry to be printed as json to the log file

type Err

type Err func(format string, a ...interface{}) error

Err is a pass-through function that uses fmt.Errorf to construct an error and returns the error after printing it to the log

type Errorf

type Errorf struct {
	F, E, W, I, D, T Err
}

type F

type F func(format string, a ...interface{})

F prints like fmt.Println surrounded by log details

type LevelPrinter

type LevelPrinter struct {
	Ln
	F
	S
	C
	Chk
	Err
}

func GetNullPrinter

func GetNullPrinter() LevelPrinter

func GetPrinter

func GetPrinter(l int32, writer io.Writer) LevelPrinter

type LevelSpec

type LevelSpec struct {
	ID        int
	Name      string
	Colorizer func(a ...interface{}) string
}

type Ln

type Ln func(a ...interface{})

Ln prints lists of interfaces with spaces in between

type Log

type Log struct {
	F, E, W, I, D, T LevelPrinter
}

Log is a set of log printers for the various Level items.

type Logger

type Logger struct {
	*Log
	*Check
	*Errorf
}

type S

type S func(a ...interface{})

S prints a spew.Sdump for an enveloper slice
