release notes

Introduction

A simple configurable logging facade for Go, using the config package.

Usage

To use the module, import the module and call the GetLogger function with a logging category (your module url and package path is a sensible choice).

import  ( "github.com/alt-golang/logger") ;

Logger := logger.GetLogger("github.com/MyModule/mypackage");
Logger.Info('Hello world!');

The logger's DefaultFactory will create a ConsoleLogger (uses stdout and stderr) object instance, with the root logging level set to info by default. To change the logging level for your module (category), add something similar to the following in your config files.

local-development.json

  "logging" : {
     "format" : "json",
     "level" : {
       "/" : "info",
       "github.com/MyModule/mypackage" : "debug"
     }
  }
}
