25
26It provides a leveled structured human readable logger with a small API. Unlike
27[standard `log`][stdlog], the Charm logger provides customizable colorful human
28readable logging with batteries included.
29
30- Uses [Lip Gloss][lipgloss] to style and colorize the output.
31- Colorful, human readable format.
32- Ability to customize the time stamp format.
33- Skips caller frames and marks function as helpers.
34- Leveled logging.
35- Text, JSON, and Logfmt formatters.
36- Store and retrieve logger in and from context.
37- Slog handler.
38- Standard log adapter.
39
40## Usage
41
42Use `go get` to download the dependency.
43
44```bash
45go get github.com/charmbracelet/log@latest
46```
47
48Then, `import` it in your Go files:
49
50```go
51import "github.com/charmbracelet/log"
52```
53
54The Charm logger comes with a global package-wise logger with timestamps turned
55on, and the logging level set to `info`.
56
57```go
58log.Debug("Cookie 🍪") // won't print anything
59log.Info("Hello World!")
60```

67</picture>
68
69All logging levels accept optional key/value pairs to be printed along with a
70message.
71
72```go
73err := fmt.Errorf("too much sugar")
74log.Error("failed to bake cookies", "err", err)
75```
76
77<picture>

83
84You can use `log.Print()` to print messages without a level prefix.
85
86```go
87log.Print("Baking 101")
88// 2023/01/04 10:04:06 Baking 101
89```
90
91### New loggers
92
93Use `New()` to create new loggers.
94
95```go
96logger := log.New(os.Stderr)
97if butter {
98 logger.Warn("chewy!", "butter", true)
99}
100```

108
109### Levels
110
111Log offers multiple levels to filter your logs on. Available levels are:
112
113```go
114log.DebugLevel
115log.InfoLevel
116log.WarnLevel
117log.ErrorLevel
118log.FatalLevel
119```
120
121Use `log.SetLevel()` to set the log level. You can also create a new logger with
122a specific log level using `log.Options{Level: }`.
123
124Use the corresponding function to log a message:
125
126```go
127err := errors.New("Baking error 101")
128log.Debug(err)
129log.Info(err)
130log.Warn(err)
131log.Error(err)
132log.Fatal(err) // this calls os.Exit(1)
133log.Print(err) // prints regardless of log level
134```
135
136Or use the formatter variant:
137
138```go
139format := "%s %d"
140log.Debugf(format, "chocolate", 10)
141log.Warnf(format, "adding more", 5)
142log.Errorf(format, "increasing temp", 420)
143log.Fatalf(format, "too hot!", 500) // this calls os.Exit(1)
144log.Printf(format, "baking cookies") // prints regardless of log level
145
146// Use these in conjunction with `With(...)` to add more context
147log.With("err", err).Errorf("unable to start %s", "oven")
148```
149
150### Structured
151
152All the functions above take a message and key-value pairs of anything. The
153message can also be of type any.
154
155```go
156ingredients := []string{"flour", "butter", "sugar", "chocolate"}
157log.Debug("Available ingredients", "ingredients", ingredients)
158// DEBUG Available ingredients ingredients="[flour butter sugar chocolate]"
159```
160
161### Options
162
163You can customize the logger with options. Use `log.NewWithOptions()` and
164`log.Options{}` to customize your new logger.
165
166```go
167logger := log.NewWithOptions(os.Stderr, log.Options{
168 ReportCaller: true,
169 ReportTimestamp: true,
170 TimeFormat: time.Kitchen,
171 Prefix: "Baking 🍪 ",
172})
173logger.Info("Starting oven!", "degree", 375)
174time.Sleep(10 * time.Minute)
175logger.Info("Finished baking")
176```
177

183</picture>
184
185You can also use logger setters to customize the logger.
186
187```go
188logger := log.New(os.Stderr)
189logger.SetReportTimestamp(false)
190logger.SetReportCaller(false)
191logger.SetLevel(log.DebugLevel)
192```
193
194Use `log.SetFormatter()` or `log.Options{Formatter: }` to change the output
195format. Available options are:
196
197- `log.TextFormatter` (_default_)
198- `log.JSONFormatter`
199- `log.LogfmtFormatter`
200
201> **Note** styling only affects the `TextFormatter`. Styling is disabled if the
202> output is not a TTY.
203
204For a list of available options, refer to [options.go](./options.go).
205
206### Styles
207
208You can customize the logger styles using [Lipgloss][lipgloss]. The styles are
209defined at a global level in [styles.go](./styles.go).
210
211```go
212// Override the default error level style.
213styles := log.DefaultStyles()
214styles.Levels[log.ErrorLevel] = lipgloss.NewStyle().
215 SetString("ERROR!!").
216 Padding(0, 1, 0, 1).
217 Background(lipgloss.Color("204")).
218 Foreground(lipgloss.Color("0"))
219// Add a custom style for key `err`
220styles.Keys["err"] = lipgloss.NewStyle().Foreground(lipgloss.Color("204"))
221styles.Values["err"] = lipgloss.NewStyle().Bold(true)
222logger := log.New(os.Stderr)
223logger.SetStyles(styles)
224logger.Error("Whoops!", "err", "kitchen on fire")
225```

234### Sub-logger
235
236Create sub-loggers with their specific fields.
237
238```go
239logger := log.NewWithOptions(os.Stderr, log.Options{
240 Prefix: "Baking 🍪 "
241})
242batch2 := logger.With("batch", 2, "chocolateChips", true)
243batch2.Debug("Preparing batch 2...")
244batch2.Debug("Adding chocolate chips")
245```

251</picture>
252
253### Format Messages
254
255You can use `fmt.Sprintf()` to format messages.
256
257```go
258for item := 1; i <= 100; i++ {
259 log.Info(fmt.Sprintf("Baking %d/100...", item))
260}
261```
262
263<picture>

265 <source media="(prefers-color-scheme: light)" width="500" srcset="https://vhs.charm.sh/vhs-4nX5I7qHT09aJ2gU7OaGV5.gif">
266 <!-- <source media="(prefers-color-scheme: light)" width="500" srcset="https://vhs.charm.sh/vhs-4RHXd4JSucomcPqJGZTpKh.gif"> -->
267 <img width="500" src="https://vhs.charm.sh/vhs-4nX5I7qHT09aJ2gU7OaGV5.gif">
268</picture>
269
270Or arguments:
271
272```go
273for temp := 375; temp <= 400; temp++ {
274 log.Info("Increasing temperature", "degree", fmt.Sprintf("%d°F", temp))
275}
276```

283</picture>
284
285### Helper Functions
286
287Skip caller frames in helper functions. Similar to what you can do with
288`testing.TB().Helper()`.
289
290```go
291func startOven(degree int) {
292 log.Helper()
293 log.Info("Starting oven", "degree", degree)
294}
295
296log.SetReportCaller(true)
297startOven(400) // INFO <cookies/oven.go:123> Starting oven degree=400
298```
299
300<picture>
301 <source media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)" width="700" srcset="https://vhs.charm.sh/vhs-6CeQGIV8Ovgr8GD0N6NgTq.gif">
302 <source media="(prefers-color-scheme: light)" width="700" srcset="https://vhs.charm.sh/vhs-6CeQGIV8Ovgr8GD0N6NgTq.gif">
303 <!-- <source media="(prefers-color-scheme: light)" width="700" srcset="https://vhs.charm.sh/vhs-6DPg0bVL4K4TkfoHkAn2ap.gif"> -->
304 <img width="700" src="https://vhs.charm.sh/vhs-6CeQGIV8Ovgr8GD0N6NgTq.gif">
305</picture>
306
307This will use the _caller_ function (`startOven`) line number instead of the
308logging function (`log.Info`) to report the source location.
309
310### Slog Handler
311
312You can use Log as an [`log/slog`](https://pkg.go.dev/log/slog) handler. Just
313pass a logger instance to Slog and you're good to go.
314
315```go
316handler := log.New(os.Stderr)
317logger := slog.New(handler)
318logger.Error("meow?")
319```
320
321### Standard Log Adapter
322
323Some Go libraries, especially the ones in the standard library, will only accept
324the [standard logger][stdlog] interface. For instance, the HTTP Server from
325`net/http` will only take a `*log.Logger` for its `ErrorLog` field.
326
327For this, you can use the standard log adapter, which simply wraps the logger in
328a `*log.Logger` interface.
329
330```go
331logger := log.NewWithOptions(os.Stderr, log.Options{Prefix: "http"})
332stdlog := logger.StandardLog(log.StandardLogOptions{
333 ForceLevel: log.ErrorLevel,
334})
335s := &http.Server{
336 Addr: ":8080",
337 Handler: handler,
338 ErrorLog: stdlog,
339}
340stdlog.Printf("Failed to make bake request, %s", fmt.Errorf("temperature is too low"))
341// ERROR http: Failed to make bake request, temperature is too low
342```
343

347
348Log integrates with [Gum][gum] to log messages to output. Use `gum log [flags]
349[message]` to handle logging in your shell scripts. See
350[charmbracelet/gum](https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum#log) for more
351information.
