go-debug

go-debug is a similar library to npm debug package. This module was written mostly for personal consumption and does not offer anywhere near the amount of customization offered by the npm package.

go-debug uses the DEBUG envrionment variable to log data. This envar can contain multiple comma seperated values indicating different namespaces. If a * is used as the value of this envar, it will log all namespaces. If the envar does not have any value set, all logs will be ignored.

General rules to remember when setting the DEBUG environment:

• Multiple namespaces can be specified with a ,
• * Will log all
• TAG Will log tag only
• !TAG Will not be logged

Example: export DEBUG=APP

debugMe := gdebug.New()
debugMe("some log")
// This will not log

newDebug := debug.New(debug.Config{
    Namespace: "APP",
    Style: []color.Attribute{
        Yellow,
        Bold,
    },
})
newDebug("something", 1, true)
// This will log
