In this package we combined different loggers so they can be compiled with a single interface. This enables switching between the different loggers without changing your code!

Supported loggers

Pretty printer
Zap
Mock (empty logger)

glog
klog

How to use

Basic usage

It is possible to simply call the logger without any initialization, the default logger is the pretty logger

package main

import logger "github.com/kubescape/go-logger"

func main(){

    logger.L().Info("This is a nice and colorful logger")
	// output: [info] This is a nice and colorful logger
}

Initialize a logger

package main

import logger "github.com/kubescape/go-logger"

func main() {
	// initialize colored logger
	logger.InitLogger("pretty")
	logger.L().Info("This is the pretty logger")
	// output: [info] This is the pretty logger

	// initialize zap (json) logger
	logger.InitLogger("zap")
	logger.L().Info("This is the zap logger")
	// output: {"level":"info","ts":"2022-06-20T19:11:34-04:00","msg":"This is the zap logger"}

	// initialize a mock logger. The mock logger does not print anything
	logger.InitLogger("mock")
	logger.L().Info("This message will not be printed")
	// output:
}

Adding other information to the log

It is possible to add additional information to the log so as strings, integers, errors, date

package main

import "github.com/kubescape/go-logger/helpers"
import logger "github.com/kubescape/go-logger"

func main(){

    logger.L().Info("ID", helpers.String("name", "my name"), helpers.Int("age", 45), helpers.Interface("address", "address object"))
    // output: [info] ID. name: my name; age: 45; address: address object

}
