Package logging implements a logging infrastructure for Go. Its output format is customizable and supports different logging backends like syslog, file and memory. Multiple backends can be utilized with different log levels per backend and logger.
Let's have a look at an example which demonstrates most of the features found in this library.
package main import ( "os" "github.com/op/go-logging" ) var log = logging.MustGetLogger("example") // Example format string. Everything except the message has a custom color // which is dependent on the log level. Many fields have a custom output // formatting too, eg. the time returns the hour down to the milli second. var format = "%{color}%{time:15:04:05.000000} ▶ %{level:.4s} %{id:03x}%{color:reset} %{message}" // Password is just an example type implementing the Redactor interface. Any // time this is logged, the Redacted() function will be called. type Password string func (p Password) Redacted() interface{} { return logging.Redact(string(p)) } func main() { // Setup one stderr and one syslog backend and combine them both into one // logging backend. By default stderr is used with the standard log flag. logBackend := logging.NewLogBackend(os.Stderr, "", 0) syslogBackend, err := logging.NewSyslogBackend("") if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) } logging.SetBackend(logBackend, syslogBackend) logging.SetFormatter(logging.MustStringFormatter(format)) // For "example", set the log level to DEBUG and ERROR. for _, level := range []logging.Level{logging.DEBUG, logging.ERROR} { logging.SetLevel(level, "example") log.Debug("debug %s", Password("secret")) log.Info("info") log.Notice("notice") log.Warning("warning") log.Error("err") log.Critical("crit") } }

After this command go-logging is ready to use. Its source will be in:
$GOROOT/src/pkg/github.com/op/go-logging
You can use go get -u -a
to update all installed packages.
