Installation

$ go get github.com/subchen/go-log

Usage

Default log to console

import (
    "github.com/subchen/go-log"
)

func main() {
    log.Debug("Some Message ...")
    log.Error("error = %v", errors.New("some error"))

    // dynamic set level
    log.SetLevel(log.INFO)

    log.Debug("cannot output debug message")
    log.Info("can output info message")
}

Output to file

import (
    "github.com/subchen/go-log"
)

func main() {
    log.SetWriter(&log.FixedSizeFileWriter{
        Name:     "/tmp/test.log",
        MaxSize:  10 * 1024 * 1024, // 10m
        MaxCount: 10,
    })

    log.Debug("x = %v", "123")
}

We have four writers for use

// Create log file if file size large than fixed size (10m)
// files: /tmp/test.log.0 .. test.log.10
&log.FixedSizeFileWriter{
    Name:     "/tmp/test.log",
    MaxSize:  10 * 1024 * 1024, // 10m
    MaxCount: 10,
}

// Create log file every day.
// files: /tmp/test.log.2016-01-02
&log.DailyFileWriter{
    Name: "/tmp/test.log",
}

// Create log file every process.
// files: /tmp/test.log.20160102_150405
&log.AlwaysNewFileWriter{
    Name: "/tmp/test.log",
}

// Output to multiple writes
&log.CompositeWriters{
    os.Stdout,
    &log.DailyFileWriter{
        Name: "/tmp/test.log",
    }
    //...
}

New log instance

import (
    "github.com/subchen/go-log"
)

func main() {
    logger := log.New(&log.DailyFileWriter{
        Name: "/tmp/test.log",
    })

    logger.Debug("i = %d", 99)
}

Output stack

You can use log.Fatal(...) to output full stack

21:04:32.884 main FATAL logger_test.go:24 this is a fatal message
	at /go/src/github.com/subchen/go-log/logger_test.go:24 (0x81db3)
