Apolog

Apolog is a Golang package for logging. Apolog supports different levels of logging and also supports multiple logging backends like syslog and file logging.

Prequisites

• Go=1.13.8 darwin/amd64

Installation and Usage

Download the repository and navigate to apolog folder. Run the below commands -

Import the apolog package from github.com/axiomsamarth/apolog and employ the exported functions Info, Error, Warn, Debug, Trace, Fatal that implements the logging levels accordingly.

Example syslog logging

func main() {
	apolog.Info(`Log this at INFO level`)
}

Example file based logging

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	apolog "github.com/axiomsamarth/apolog"
)

func main() {

	var logFile := "./logs/logfile.log"
	var loginContext = &apolog.Apolog{Filepath: logFile}
	loginContext.SetContext()

	var data = []byte(`Log this!`)
	apolog.Info(data)
}
