@ -23,6 +23,40 @@ Once you have the flogger, you can do things such as:
flogger.Fatalln("Something really bad happened!")
flogger.Fatalf("Something really bad happened: %s.", problemDescription)
BTW, if the PrettyWritingRouter was being used, then this:
flogger.Print("Hello world!")
Would generate output like the following:
Hello world! (2015-10-10 17:28:49.397356044 -0700 PDT)
(Alrhough note that in actual usage this would have color.)
(Note that for for other routers the actual output would look very different!
What the output looks like is router dependent.)
Structured Logging
But those method calls all generated unstructure data.
To include structured data the flogger's With method needs to be used.
For example:
newFlogger := flogger.With(map[string]interface{}{
"method":"Toil",
"secret_note":"Hi there! How are you?",
})
Then if the PrettyWritingRouter was being used, then this:
newFlogger.Print("Hello world!")
Would generate output like the following:
Hello world! (2015-10-10 17:28:49.397356044 -0700 PDT) method="Toil" secret_note="Hi there! How are you?"
(Again, note that in actual usage this would have color.)
