[![godoc](http://img.shields.io/badge/godoc-reference-blue.svg?style=flat)](https://godoc.org/github.com/rs/zerolog) [![license](http://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-red.svg?style=flat)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rs/zerolog/master/LICENSE) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/rs/zerolog.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/rs/zerolog) [![Coverage](http://gocover.io/_badge/github.com/rs/zerolog)](http://gocover.io/github.com/rs/zerolog)
|
||
|
|
||
|
The zerolog package provides a fast and simple logger dedicated to JSON output.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Zerolog's API is designed to provide both a great developer experience and stunning [performance](#performance). Its unique chaining API allows zerolog to write JSON log events by avoiding allocations and reflection.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The uber's [zap](https://godoc.org/go.uber.org/zap) library pioneered this approach. Zerolog is taking this concept to the next level with simpler to use API and even better performance.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To keep the code base and the API simple, zerolog focuses on JSON logging only. As [suggested on reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/golang/comments/6c9k7n/zerolog_is_now_faster_than_zap/), you may use tools like [humanlog](https://github.com/aybabtme/humanlog) to pretty print JSON on the console during development.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Features
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Level logging
|
||
|
* Sampling
|
||
|
* Contextual fields
|
||
|
* `context.Context` integration
|
||
|
* `net/http` helpers
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
import "github.com/rs/zerolog/log"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### A global logger can be use for simple logging
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
log.Info().Msg("hello world")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"level":"info","time":1494567715,"message":"hello world"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
NOTE: To import the global logger, import the `log` subpackage `github.com/rs/zerolog/log`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
log.Fatal().
|
||
|
Err(err).
|
||
|
Str("service", service).
|
||
|
Msgf("Cannot start %s", service)
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"level":"fatal","time":1494567715,"message":"Cannot start myservice","error":"some error","service":"myservice"}
|
||
|
// Exit 1
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
NOTE: Using `Msgf` generates one allocation even when the logger is disabled.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Fields can be added to log messages
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
log.Info().
|
||
|
Str("foo", "bar").
|
||
|
Int("n", 123).
|
||
|
Msg("hello world")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"level":"info","time":1494567715,"foo":"bar","n":123,"message":"hello world"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Create logger instance to manage different outputs
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
logger := zerolog.New(os.Stderr).With().Timestamp().Logger()
|
||
|
|
||
|
logger.Info().Str("foo", "bar").Msg("hello world")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"level":"info","time":1494567715,"message":"hello world","foo":"bar"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Sub-loggers let you chain loggers with additional context
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
sublogger := log.With().
|
||
|
Str("component": "foo").
|
||
|
Logger()
|
||
|
sublogger.Info().Msg("hello world")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"level":"info","time":1494567715,"message":"hello world","component":"foo"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Level logging
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
zerolog.SetGlobalLevel(zerolog.InfoLevel)
|
||
|
|
||
|
log.Debug().Msg("filtered out message")
|
||
|
log.Info().Msg("routed message")
|
||
|
|
||
|
if e := log.Debug(); e.Enabled() {
|
||
|
// Compute log output only if enabled.
|
||
|
value := compute()
|
||
|
e.Str("foo": value).Msg("some debug message")
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"level":"info","time":1494567715,"message":"routed message"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Sub dictionary
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
log.Info().
|
||
|
Str("foo", "bar").
|
||
|
Dict("dict", zerolog.Dict().
|
||
|
Str("bar", "baz").
|
||
|
Int("n", 1)
|
||
|
).Msg("hello world")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"level":"info","time":1494567715,"foo":"bar","dict":{"bar":"baz","n":1},"message":"hello world"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Customize automatic field names
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
zerolog.TimestampFieldName = "t"
|
||
|
zerolog.LevelFieldName = "l"
|
||
|
zerolog.MessageFieldName = "m"
|
||
|
|
||
|
log.Info().Msg("hello world")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"l":"info","t":1494567715,"m":"hello world"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Log with no level nor message
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
log.Log().Str("foo","bar").Msg("")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"time":1494567715,"foo":"bar"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Add contextual fields to the global logger
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
log.Logger = log.With().Str("foo", "bar").Logger()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Log Sampling
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
sampled := log.Sample(10)
|
||
|
sampled.Info().Msg("will be logged every 10 messages")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"time":1494567715,"sample":10,"message":"will be logged every 10 messages"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Pass a sub-logger by context
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
ctx := log.With("component", "module").Logger().WithContext(ctx)
|
||
|
|
||
|
log.Ctx(ctx).Info().Msg("hello world")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"component":"module","level":"info","message":"hello world"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Set as standard logger output
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
log := zerolog.New(os.Stdout).With().
|
||
|
Str("foo", "bar").
|
||
|
Logger()
|
||
|
|
||
|
stdlog.SetFlags(0)
|
||
|
stdlog.SetOutput(log)
|
||
|
|
||
|
stdlog.Print("hello world")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"foo":"bar","message":"hello world"}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Integration with `net/http`
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `github.com/rs/zerolog/hlog` package provides some helpers to integrate zerolog with `http.Handler`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In this example we use [alice](https://github.com/justinas/alice) to install logger for better readability.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
log := zerolog.New(os.Stdout).With().
|
||
|
Timestamp().
|
||
|
Str("role", "my-service").
|
||
|
Str("host", host).
|
||
|
Logger()
|
||
|
|
||
|
c := alice.New()
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Install the logger handler with default output on the console
|
||
|
c = c.Append(hlog.NewHandler(log))
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Install some provided extra handler to set some request's context fields.
|
||
|
// Thanks to those handler, all our logs will come with some pre-populated fields.
|
||
|
c = c.Append(hlog.AccessHandler(func(r *http.Request, status, size int, duration time.Duration) {
|
||
|
hlog.FromRequest(r).Info().
|
||
|
Str("method", r.Method).
|
||
|
Str("url", r.URL.String()).
|
||
|
Int("status", status).
|
||
|
Int("size", size).
|
||
|
Dur("duration", duration).
|
||
|
Msg("")
|
||
|
}))
|
||
|
c = c.Append(hlog.RemoteAddrHandler("ip"))
|
||
|
c = c.Append(hlog.UserAgentHandler("user_agent"))
|
||
|
c = c.Append(hlog.RefererHandler("referer"))
|
||
|
c = c.Append(hlog.RequestIDHandler("req_id", "Request-Id"))
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Here is your final handler
|
||
|
h := c.Then(http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
|
||
|
// Get the logger from the request's context. You can safely assume it
|
||
|
// will be always there: if the handler is removed, hlog.FromRequest
|
||
|
// will return a no-op logger.
|
||
|
hlog.FromRequest(r).Info().
|
||
|
Str("user", "current user").
|
||
|
Str("status", "ok").
|
||
|
Msg("Something happened")
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Output: {"level":"info","time":"2001-02-03T04:05:06Z","role":"my-service","host":"local-hostname","req_id":"b4g0l5t6tfid6dtrapu0","user":"current user","status":"ok","message":"Something happened"}
|
||
|
}))
|
||
|
http.Handle("/", h)
|
||
|
|
||
|
if err := http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil); err != nil {
|
||
|
log.Fatal().Err(err).Msg("Startup failed")
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Global Settings
|
||
|
|
||
|
Some settings can be changed and will by applied to all loggers:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `log.Logger`: You can set this value to customize the global logger (the one used by package level methods).
|
||
|
* `zerolog.SetGlobalLevel`: Can raise the minimum level of all loggers. Set this to `zerolog.Disable` to disable logging altogether (quiet mode).
|
||
|
* `zerolog.DisableSampling`: If argument is `true`, all sampled loggers will stop sampling and issue 100% of their log events.
|
||
|
* `zerolog.TimestampFieldName`: Can be set to customize `Timestamp` field name.
|
||
|
* `zerolog.LevelFieldName`: Can be set to customize level field name.
|
||
|
* `zerolog.MessageFieldName`: Can be set to customize message field name.
|
||
|
* `zerolog.ErrorFieldName`: Can be set to customize `Err` field name.
|
||
|
* `zerolog.SampleFieldName`: Can be set to customize the field name added when sampling is enabled.
|
||
|
* `zerolog.TimeFieldFormat`: Can be set to customize `Time` field value formatting. If set with an empty string, times are formated as UNIX timestamp.
|
||
|
// DurationFieldUnit defines the unit for time.Duration type fields added
|
||
|
// using the Dur method.
|
||
|
* `DurationFieldUnit`: Sets the unit of the fields added by `Dur` (default: `time.Millisecond`).
|
||
|
* `DurationFieldInteger`: If set to true, `Dur` fields are formatted as integers instead of floats.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Field Types
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Standard Types
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `Str`
|
||
|
* `Bool`
|
||
|
* `Int`, `Int8`, `Int16`, `Int32`, `Int64`
|
||
|
* `Uint`, `Uint8`, `Uint16`, `Uint32`, `Uint64`
|
||
|
* `Float32`, `Float64`
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Advanced Fields
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `Err`: Takes an `error` and render it as a string using the `zerolog.ErrorFieldName` field name.
|
||
|
* `Timestamp`: Insert a timestamp field with `zerolog.TimestampFieldName` field name and formatted using `zerolog.TimeFieldFormat`.
|
||
|
* `Time`: Adds a field with the time formated with the `zerolog.TimeFieldFormat`.
|
||
|
* `Dur`: Adds a field with a `time.Duration`.
|
||
|
* `Dict`: Adds a sub-key/value as a field of the event.
|
||
|
* `Interface`: Uses reflection to marshal the type.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Performance
|
||
|
|
||
|
All operations are allocation free (those numbers *include* JSON encoding):
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
