package zerolog

import "github.com/rs/zerolog"

Package zerolog provides a lightweight logging library dedicated to JSON logging.

A global Logger can be use for simple logging: 

import "github.com/rs/zerolog/log"

log.Info().Msg("hello world")
// Output: {"time":1494567715,"level":"info","message":"hello world"}

NOTE: To import the global logger, import the "log" subpackage "github.com/rs/zerolog/log".

Fields can be added to log messages: 

log.Info().Str("foo", "bar").Msg("hello world")
// Output: {"time":1494567715,"level":"info","message":"hello world","foo":"bar"}

Create logger instance to manage different outputs: 

logger := zerolog.New(os.Stderr).With().Timestamp().Logger()
logger.Info().
       Str("foo", "bar").
       Msg("hello world")
// Output: {"time":1494567715,"level":"info","message":"hello world","foo":"bar"}

Sub-loggers let you chain loggers with additional context: 

sublogger := log.With().Str("component", "foo").Logger()
sublogger.Info().Msg("hello world")
// Output: {"time":1494567715,"level":"info","message":"hello world","component":"foo"}

Level logging 

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,"routed message"}

Customize automatic field names: 

log.TimestampFieldName = "t"
log.LevelFieldName = "p"
log.MessageFieldName = "m"

log.Info().Msg("hello world")
// Output: {"t":1494567715,"p":"info","m":"hello world"}

Log with no level and message: 

log.Log().Str("foo","bar").Msg("")
// Output: {"time":1494567715,"foo":"bar"}

Add contextual fields to global Logger: 

log.Logger = log.With().Str("foo", "bar").Logger()

Sample logs: 

sampled := log.Sample(&zerolog.BasicSampler{N: 10})
sampled.Info().Msg("will be logged every 10 messages")

Log with contextual hooks: 

// Create the hook:
type SeverityHook struct{}

func (h SeverityHook) Run(e *zerolog.Event, level zerolog.Level, msg string) {
     if level != zerolog.NoLevel {
         e.Str("severity", level.String())
     }
}

// And use it:
var h SeverityHook
log := zerolog.New(os.Stdout).Hook(h)
log.Warn().Msg("")
// Output: {"level":"warn","severity":"warn"}

Caveats

Field duplication:

There is no fields deduplication out-of-the-box. Using the same key multiple times creates new key in final JSON each time. 

logger := zerolog.New(os.Stderr).With().Timestamp().Logger()
logger.Info().
       Timestamp().
       Msg("dup")
// Output: {"level":"info","time":1494567715,"time":1494567715,"message":"dup"}

In this case, many consumers will take the last value, but this is not guaranteed; check yours if in doubt.

Concurrency safety:

Be careful when calling UpdateContext. It is not concurrency safe. Use the With method to create a child logger: 

func handler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    // Create a child logger for concurrency safety
    logger := log.Logger.With().Logger()

    // Add context fields, for example User-Agent from HTTP headers
    logger.UpdateContext(func(c zerolog.Context) zerolog.Context {
        ...
    })
}
