Logging from gorilla/mux

package main

import (
	"log"
	"net/http"

	"github.com/gorilla/mux"
	"github.com/resurfaceio/logger-go/v3" //<----- 1
)


func main() {
	router := mux.NewRouter()
  
	options := logger.Options{ //<----- 2
		Rules:   "include_debug\n",
		Url:     "http://localhost:7701/message",
		Enabled: true,
		Queue:   nil,
	}

	httpLoggerForMux, err := logger.NewHttpLoggerForMuxOptions(options) //<----- 3

	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	router.Use(httpLoggerForMux.LogData) //<----- 4

	log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":5000", router))
}

Protecting User Privacy

Loggers always have an active set of rules that control what data is logged and how sensitive data is masked. All of the examples above apply a predefined set of rules, include_debug, but logging rules are easily customized to meet the needs of any application.
