Overview

Package logger is a goroutine-safe logging facility which writes logs with different severity levels to files, console, or both. Logs with different severity levels are written to different logfiles.

Features

  1. Auto rotation: It'll create a new logfile whenever day changes or size of the current logfile exceeds the configured size limit.
  2. Auto purging: It'll delete some oldest logfiles whenever the number of logfiles exceeds the configured limit.
  3. Log-through: Logs with higher severity level will be written to all the logfiles with lower severity level.
  4. Log levels: 6 different levels are supported. Logs with different levels are written to different logfiles. By setting the Logger object to a higher log level, lower level logs will be filtered out.
  5. Logs are not buffered, they are written to logfiles immediately with os.(*File).Write().
  6. It'll create symlinks that link to the most current logfiles.

Basic examples

Use the global Logger object

// logger.Init must be called first to create the global Logger object
err := logger.Init(&logger.Config{
	LogDir:          "./logs",
	LogFileMaxSize:  200,
	LogFileMaxNum:   500,
	LogFileNumToDel: 50,
	LogLevel:        logger.LogLevelInfo,
	LogDest:         logger.LogDestFile,
	Flag:            logger.ControlFlagLogLineNum,
})
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
logger.Infof("Failed to find player! uid=%d plid=%d cmd=%s xxx=%d", 1234, 678942, "getplayer", 102020101)
logger.Warnf("Failed to parse protocol! uid=%d plid=%d cmd=%s", 1234, 678942, "getplayer")

Create a new Logger object

While the global Logger object should be enough for most cases, you can also create as many Logger objects as desired.

newLogger, err := logger.New(&logger.Config{
	LogDir:          "./logs",
	LogFileMaxSize:  200,
	LogFileMaxNum:   500,
	LogFileNumToDel: 50,
	LogLevel:        logger.LogLevelInfo,
	LogDest:         logger.LogDestFile,
	Flag:            logger.ControlFlagLogLineNum,
})
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
newLogger.Info("abc", 123, 444.77)
newLogger.Error("abc", 123, 444.77)
newLogger.Close()

Overview

Package logger is a goroutine-safe logging facility which writes logs with different severity levels to files, console, or both. Logs with different severity levels are written to different logfiles.

It's recommended to use logger.Init to create a global Logger object, then use logger.Info/Infof/Warn/Warnf... to write logs.

logger.New can be use to create as many Logger objects as desired if in need.

For a quick reference about this package's features and performance, please refer to the associated README.md.(https://github.com/antigloss/go/blob/master/logger/README.md)

Error uses the global Logger object created by Init to write a log with error level.

func Errorf 

func Errorf(format string, args ...interface{})

Errorf uses the global Logger object created by Init to write a log with error level.

func Fatal 

func Fatal(args ...interface{})

Example (GlobalLoggerObject)

This example shows how to write logs with the global Logger object. 

package main

import (

		panic(err)
	}
	logger.Info(123, 456.789, "abc", 432)
	logger.Infof("This is an %s", "example.")

Types

type Config 

type Config struct {
	// Directory to hold the log files. If left empty, current working directory is used.
	// Should you need to create multiple Logger objects, better to associate them with different directories.
	LogDir string
	// Name of a log file is formatted as `LogFilenamePrefix.LogLevel.DateTime.log`.
	// 3 placeholders are pre-defined: %P, %H and %U. When used in the prefix,
	// %P will be replaced with the program's name, %H will be replaced with hostname,
	// and %U will be replaced with username.
	// If LogFilenamePrefix is left empty, it'll be defaulted to `%P.%H.%U`.
	// If you create multiple Logger objects with the same directory, you must associate them with different prefixes.
	LogFilenamePrefix string
	// Latest log files of each level are associated with symbolic links. Name of a symlink is formatted as `LogSymlinkPrefix.LogLevel`.
	// If LogSymlinkPrefix is left empty, it'll be defaulted to `%P.%U`.
	// If you create multiple Logger objects with the same directory, you must associate them with different prefixes.
	LogSymlinkPrefix string
	// Limit the maximum size in MB for a single log file. 0 means unlimited.
	LogFileMaxSize uint32
	// Limit the maximum number of log files under `LogDir`. `LogFileNumToDel` log files will be deleted if reached. <=0 means unlimited.
	LogFileMaxNum int
	// Number of log files to be deleted when `LogFileMaxNum` reached. <=0 means don't delete.
	LogFileNumToDel int
	// Don't write logs below `LogLevel`.
	LogLevel LogLevel
	// Where the logs are written.
	LogDest LogDest
	// How the logs are written.
	Flag ControlFlag
}

Config contains options for creating a new Logger object.

type ControlFlag 

type ControlFlag int // ControlFlag controls how the logs are written. Use `|`(Or operator) to mix multiple flags.

const (
	ControlFlagLogThrough  ControlFlag = 1 << iota // Controls if logs with higher level are written to lower level log files.
	ControlFlagLogFuncName                         // Controls if function name is prepended to the logs.
	ControlFlagLogLineNum                          // Controls if filename and line number are prepended to the logs.
	ControlFlagLogDate                             // Controls if a date string formatted as '20201201' is prepended to the logs.
	ControlFlagNone        = 0
)

type LogDest 

type LogDest uint32 // LogDest controls where the logs are written.

const (
	LogDestFile    LogDest = 1 << iota // Write logs to files.
	LogDestConsole                     // Write logs to console.
	LogDestNone    = 0                 // Don't write logs.
)

type LogLevel 

type LogLevel int // LogLevel is used to exclude logs with lower level.

const (
	LogLevelTrace LogLevel = iota
	LogLevelInfo
	LogLevelWarn
	LogLevelError
	LogLevelPanic // Call panic() after log is written.
	LogLevelFatal // Call os.Exit(-1) after log is written.
	LogLevelCount // Number of different log levels.
)

type Logger 

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

Logger can be used to write logs with different severity levels to files, console, or both. Logs with different severity levels are written to different files. It is goroutine-safe and supports the following features:

  1. Auto rotation: It'll create a new logfile whenever day changes or size of the current logfile exceeds the configured size limit.
  2. Auto purging: It'll delete some oldest logfiles whenever the number of logfiles exceeds the configured limit.
  3. Log-through: Logs with higher severity level will be written to all the logfiles with lower severity level.
  4. Log levels: 6 different levels are supported. Logs with different levels are written to different logfiles. By setting the Logger object to a higher log level, lower level logs will be filtered out.
  5. Logs are not buffered, they are written to logfiles immediately with os.(*File).Write().
  6. It'll create symlinks that link to the most current logfiles.

func New 

func New(cfg *Config) (logger *Logger, err error)

New can be used to create as many Logger objects as desired, while the global Logger object created by Init should be enough for most cases. Should you need to create multiple Logger objects, better to associate them with different directories, at least with different filename prefixes(including symlink prefixes), otherwise they will not work properly.

Example (MultiLoggerObject)

This example shows how to create multiple Logger objects and write logs with them. 

package main

import (
	"github.com/antigloss/go/logger"
)

func main() {
	lg1, err := logger.New(&logger.Config{
		LogDir:          "./logs1", // Better to associate different Logger object with different directory.
		LogFileMaxSize:  200,
		LogFileMaxNum:   500,
		LogFileNumToDel: 50,
		LogLevel:        logger.LogLevelInfo,
		LogDest:         logger.LogDestFile,
		Flag:            logger.ControlFlagLogLineNum,
	})
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	defer lg1.Close() // Don't forget to close the Logger object when you've done with it.

	lg2, err := logger.New(&logger.Config{
		LogDir:          "./logs2", // Better to associate different Logger object with different directory.
		LogFileMaxSize:  200,
		LogFileMaxNum:   500,
		LogFileNumToDel: 50,
		LogLevel:        logger.LogLevelInfo,
		LogDest:         logger.LogDestFile,
		Flag:            logger.ControlFlagLogLineNum,
	})
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	defer lg2.Close() // Don't forget to close the Logger object when you've done with it.

	lg1.Error(333, 444.55, "This", "is", "an", "example.")
	lg2.Warnf("This is %s %s %s", "yet", "another", "example.")
