Warning: This is a fork of https://github.com/samber/slog-gin with custom behaviour as DEXPRO requires it. You should depend on the original project.

We may try to contribute changes made in this fork at some point in time, if the changes seem worth in the main project. Until then, we use this fork to test our ideas.

💡 Usage

Minimal

import (
	"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
	sloggin "github.com/samber/slog-gin"
	"log/slog"
)

// Create a slog logger, which:
//   - Logs to stdout.
logger := slog.New(slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stdout, nil))

router := gin.New()

// Add the sloggin middleware to all routes.
// The middleware will log all requests attributes.
router.Use(sloggin.New(logger))
router.Use(gin.Recovery())

// Example pong request.
router.GET("/pong", func(c *gin.Context) {
    c.String(http.StatusOK, "pong")
})

router.Run(":1234")

// output:
// time=2023-10-15T20:32:58.926+02:00 level=INFO msg="Incoming request" env=production request.time=2023-10-15T20:32:58.626+02:00 request.method=GET request.path=/ request.query="" request.route="" request.ip=127.0.0.1:63932 request.length=0 response.time=2023-10-15T20:32:58.926+02:00 response.latency=100ms response.status=200 response.length=7 id=""

OTEL

logger := slog.New(slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stdout, nil))

config := sloggin.Config{
	WithSpanID:  true,
	WithTraceID: true,
}

router := gin.New()
router.Use(sloggin.NewWithConfig(logger, config))

Custom log levels

logger := slog.New(slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stdout, nil))

config := sloggin.Config{
	DefaultLevel:     slog.LevelInfo,
	ClientErrorLevel: slog.LevelWarn,
	ServerErrorLevel: slog.LevelError,
}

router := gin.New()
router.Use(sloggin.NewWithConfig(logger, config))

Verbose

logger := slog.New(slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stdout, nil))

config := sloggin.Config{
	WithRequestBody: true,
	WithResponseBody: true,
	WithRequestHeader: true,
	WithResponseHeader: true,
}

router := gin.New()
router.Use(sloggin.NewWithConfig(logger, config))

Filters

logger := slog.New(slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stdout, nil))

router := gin.New()
router.Use(
	sloggin.NewWithFilters(
		logger,
		sloggin.Accept(func (c *gin.Context) bool {
			return xxx
		}),
		sloggin.IgnoreStatus(401, 404),
	),
)

Available filters:

Accept / Ignore
AcceptMethod / IgnoreMethod
AcceptStatus / IgnoreStatus
AcceptStatusGreaterThan / IgnoreStatusLessThan
AcceptStatusGreaterThanOrEqual / IgnoreStatusLessThanOrEqual
AcceptPath / IgnorePath
AcceptPathContains / IgnorePathContains
AcceptPathPrefix / IgnorePathPrefix
AcceptPathSuffix / IgnorePathSuffix
AcceptPathMatch / IgnorePathMatch
AcceptHost / IgnoreHost
AcceptHostContains / IgnoreHostContains
AcceptHostPrefix / IgnoreHostPrefix
AcceptHostSuffix / IgnoreHostSuffix
AcceptHostMatch / IgnoreHostMatch

Using custom time formatters

import (
	"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
	sloggin "github.com/samber/slog-gin"
	slogformatter "github.com/samber/slog-formatter"
	"log/slog"
)

// Create a slog logger, which:
//   - Logs to stdout.
//   - RFC3339 with UTC time format.
logger := slog.New(
    slogformatter.NewFormatterHandler(
        slogformatter.TimezoneConverter(time.UTC),
        slogformatter.TimeFormatter(time.DateTime, nil),
    )(
        slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stdout, nil),
    ),
)

router := gin.New()

// Add the sloggin middleware to all routes.
// The middleware will log all requests attributes.
router.Use(sloggin.New(logger))
router.Use(gin.Recovery())

// Example pong request.
router.GET("/pong", func(c *gin.Context) {
    c.String(http.StatusOK, "pong")
})

router.Run(":1234")

// output:
// time=2023-10-15T20:32:58.926+02:00 level=INFO msg="Incoming request" env=production request.time=2023-10-15T20:32:58Z request.method=GET request.path=/ request.query="" request.route="" request.ip=127.0.0.1:63932 request.length=0 response.time=2023-10-15T20:32:58Z response.latency=100ms response.status=200 response.length=7 id=""

Using custom logger sub-group

logger := slog.New(slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stdout, nil))

router := gin.New()

// Add the sloggin middleware to all routes.
// The middleware will log all requests attributes under a "http" group.
router.Use(sloggin.New(logger.WithGroup("http")))
router.Use(gin.Recovery())

// Example pong request.
router.GET("/pong", func(c *gin.Context) {
    c.String(http.StatusOK, "pong")
})

router.Run(":1234")

// output:
// time=2023-10-15T20:32:58.926+02:00 level=INFO msg="Incoming request" env=production http.request.time=2023-10-15T20:32:58.626+02:00 http.request.method=GET http.request.path=/ request.query="" http.request.route="" http.request.ip=127.0.0.1:63932 http.request.length=0 http.response.time=2023-10-15T20:32:58.926+02:00 http.response.latency=100ms http.response.status=200 http.response.length=7 http.id=""

Add logger to a single route

logger := slog.New(slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stdout, nil))

router := gin.New()
router.Use(gin.Recovery())

// Example pong request.
// Add the sloggin middleware to a single routes.
router.GET("/pong", sloggin.New(logger), func(c *gin.Context) {
    c.String(http.StatusOK, "pong")
})

router.Run(":1234")

Adding custom attributes

logger := slog.New(slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stdout, nil)).
    With("environment", "production").
    With("server", "gin/1.9.0").
    With("server_start_time", time.Now()).
    With("gin_mode", gin.EnvGinMode)

router := gin.New()

// Add the sloggin middleware to all routes.
// The middleware will log all requests attributes.
router.Use(sloggin.New(logger))
router.Use(gin.Recovery())

// Example pong request.
router.GET("/pong", func(c *gin.Context) {
	// Add an attribute to a single log entry.
	sloggin.AddCustomAttributes(c, slog.String("foo", "bar"))
    c.String(http.StatusOK, "pong")
})

router.Run(":1234")

// output:
// time=2023-10-15T20:32:58.926+02:00 level=INFO msg="Incoming request" environment=production server=gin/1.9.0 gin_mode=release request.time=2023-10-15T20:32:58.626+02:00 request.method=GET request.path=/ request.query="" request.route="" request.ip=127.0.0.1:63932 request.length=0 response.time=2023-10-15T20:32:58.926+02:00 response.latency=100ms response.status=200 response.length=7 id="" foo=bar

JSON output

logger := slog.New(slog.NewJSONHandler(os.Stdout, nil))

router := gin.New()

// Add the sloggin middleware to all routes.
// The middleware will log all requests attributes.
router.Use(sloggin.New(logger))
router.Use(gin.Recovery())

// Example pong request.
router.GET("/pong", func(c *gin.Context) {
    c.String(http.StatusOK, "pong")
})

router.Run(":1234")

// output:
// {"time":"2023-10-15T20:32:58.926+02:00","level":"INFO","msg":"Incoming request","gin_mode":"GIN_MODE","env":"production","http":{"request":{"time":"2023-10-15T20:32:58.626+02:00","method":"GET","path":"/","query":"","route":"","ip":"127.0.0.1:55296","length":0},"response":{"time":"2023-10-15T20:32:58.926+02:00","latency":100000,"status":200,"length":7},"id":""}}
