bdlm/log is a fork of the excellent sirupsen/logrus package. This package adds:

  • support for sanitizing strings from log output to aid in preventing leaking sensitive data.
  • additional default fields host and caller.
  • support for suppressing any default field.
  • TTY formatting and coloring of JSON output.
  • updated text formatting for TTY output.
  • updated TTY color scheme.

bdlm/log is a structured logger for Go and is API compatible with the standard libaray log package.

Formats

By default, bdlm/log uses a basic text format:

time="2018-08-11T18:07:02.366-06:00" level="debug" msg="Oh, look, a bird..." data.animal="bird" data.count=1 caller="main.go:38 main.main" host="myhost"
time="2018-08-11T18:07:02.366-06:00" level="info" msg="A group of walrus emerges from the ocean" data.animal="walrus" data.count=20 caller="main.go:42 main.main" host="myhost"
time="2018-08-11T18:07:02.366-06:00" level="warn" msg="The group's number increased tremendously!" data.animal="walrus" data.count=100 caller="main.go:46 main.main" host="myhost"
time="2018-08-11T18:07:02.366-06:00" level="error" msg="Tremendously sized cow enters the ocean." data.animal="cow" data.run="wait, what?" caller="main.go:50 main.main" host="myhost"
time="2018-08-11T18:07:02.366-06:00" level="panic" msg="The walrus are attacking!" data.animal="walrus" data.run=true caller="main.go:54 main.main" host="myhost"
time="2018-08-11T18:07:02.367-06:00" level="fatal" msg="That could have gone better..." data.dead=true data.winner="walrus" caller="main.go:29 main.main.func1" host="myhost"

For development, color-coded output formated for humans is automatically enabled when a tty terminal is detected (this can be disabled with log.SetFormatter(&log.TextFormatter{DisableTTY: true})):

JSON formatting is also available with log.SetFormatter(&log.JSONFormatter{}) for easy parsing by logstash or similar:

{"caller":"main.go:40 main.main","data":{"animal":"bird","count":1},"host":"myhost","level":"debug","msg":"Oh, look, a bird...","time":"2018-08-11T18:13:15.754-06:00"}
{"caller":"main.go:44 main.main","data":{"animal":"walrus","count":20},"host":"myhost","level":"info","msg":"A group of walrus emerges from the ocean","time":"2018-08-11T18:13:15.755-06:00"}
{"caller":"main.go:48 main.main","data":{"animal":"walrus","count":100},"host":"myhost","level":"warn","msg":"The group's number increased tremendously!","time":"2018-08-11T18:13:15.755-06:00"}
{"caller":"main.go:52 main.main","data":{"animal":"cow","run":"wait, what?"},"host":"myhost","level":"error","msg":"Tremendously sized cow enters the ocean.","time":"2018-08-11T18:13:15.755-06:00"}
{"caller":"main.go:56 main.main","data":{"animal":"walrus","run":true},"host":"myhost","level":"panic","msg":"The walrus are attacking!","time":"2018-08-11T18:13:15.755-06:00"}
{"caller":"main.go:31 main.main.func1","data":{"dead":true,"winner":"walrus"},"host":"myhost","level":"fatal","msg":"That could have gone better...","time":"2018-08-11T18:13:15.755-06:00"}

The JSON formatter also makes adjustments by default when a tty terminal is detected and can be disabled similarly with log.SetFormatter(&log.JSONFormatter{DisableTTY: true}):

The full list of Formatter properties that can be set is:

// Set to true to bypass checking for a TTY before outputting colors.
ForceTTY bool

// Disable caller data.
DisableCaller bool

// Force disabling colors.
DisableTTY bool

// Disable timestamp logging. useful when output is redirected to logging
// system that already adds timestamps.
DisableTimestamp bool

// Disable hostname logging.
DisableHostname bool

// TimestampFormat to use for display when a full timestamp is printed
TimestampFormat string

// FieldMap allows users to customize the names of keys for default fields.
// For example:
//  formatter := &TextFormatter{FieldMap: FieldMap{
//    LabelCaller: "@caller",
//    LabelData:   "@data",
//    LabelHost:   "@hostname",
//    LabelLevel:  "@loglevel",
//    LabelMsg:    "@message",
//    LabelTime:   "@timestamp",
//  }}
FieldMap FieldMap

Examples

Simple usage

The simplest way to use bdlm/log is with the exported package logger:

package main

import (
    log "github.com/bdlm/log"
)

func main() {
    log.WithFields(log.Fields{
        "animal": "walrus",
    }).Info("A walrus appears")
}
Compatibility

Note that it is fully api-compatible with the stdlib logger, so you can replace your log imports everywhere or using a strangler pattern with "github.com/bdlm/log" and add the full logging flexibility to your service without impacting existing code.

Customization

The logger has several options youc an use to further customize it's output in your code:

package main

import (
    "os"
    log "github.com/bdlm/log"
)

func init() {
    // Blacklist a string from appearing in the log. The characters in any
    // substring match to a word that has been added will be replaced with
    // asterisks (*).
    log.AddSecret("some-secret-text")

    // Register a function that will execute prior to the os.Exit call when a
    // fatal error is logged.
    log.RegisterExitHandler(func() {
        // gracefully shutdown something...
    })

    // Log as JSON instead of the default ASCII formatter.
    log.SetFormatter(&log.TextFormatter{
        // Set various formatter options:
        //   DisableCaller:    true
        //   DisableTTY:       true
        //   DisableTimestamp: true
        //   DisableHostname:  true
        //   ForceTTY:         true
        //   TimestampFormat:  "2006"
        //   FieldMap:         FieldMap{LabelMsg: "message"}
    })

    // Output to stdout instead of the default stderr. Can be any io.Writer, see
    // below for a File example.
    log.SetOutput(os.Stdout)

    // Only log the warning severity or above.
    log.SetLevel(log.WarnLevel)
}

func main() {
    log.WithFields(log.Fields{
        "animal": "walrus",
        "size":   10,
    }).Info("A group of walrus emerges from the ocean")

    log.WithFields(log.Fields{
        "omg":    true,
        "number": 122,
    }).Warn("The group's number increased tremendously!")

    log.WithFields(log.Fields{
        "omg":    true,
        "number": 100,
    }).Fatal("The ice breaks!")

    // A common pattern is to re-use fields between logging statements by re-using
    // the log.Entry returned from WithFields()
    contextLogger := log.WithFields(log.Fields{
        "common": "this is a common field",
        "other": "I also should be logged always",
    })

    contextLogger.Info("I'll be logged with common and other field")
    contextLogger.Info("Me too")
}
Secrets

bdlm/log supports a "blacklist" of values that should not be logged. This can be used to help prevent or mitigate leaking secrets into log files:

import (
    "github.com/bdlm/log"
)

func main() {
    log.AddSecret("some-secret-text")
    log.Info("the secret is 'some-secret-text'")

    // Output: the secret is '****************'
}
Advanced usage

For more advanced usage such as logging to multiple locations from the same application, you can also create an instance of the bdlm/log Logger:

package main

import (
    "os"
    "github.com/bdlm/log"
)

// Create a new instance of the logger. You can have any number of instances.
var logger = log.New()

func main() {
    // The API for setting attributes is a little different than the package level
    // exported logger. See Godoc.
    logger.Out = os.Stdout

    // You could set this to any `io.Writer` such as a file
    // file, err := os.OpenFile("log.log", os.O_CREATE|os.O_WRONLY, 0666)
    //  if err == nil {
    //    logger.Out = file
    //  } else {
    //    logger.Info("Failed to log to file, using default stderr")
    // }

    logger.WithFields(log.Fields{
        "animal": "walrus",
        "size":   10,
    }).Info("A group of walrus emerges from the ocean")
}

Fields

bdlm/log encourages careful, structured logging through logging fields instead of long, unparseable error messages. For example, instead of: log.Fatalf("Failed to send event %s to topic %s with key %d"), you should log the much more discoverable:

log.WithFields(log.Fields{
    "event": event,
    "topic": topic,
    "key": key,
}).Fatal("Failed to send event")

We've found this API forces you to think about logging in a way that produces much more useful logging messages. We've been in countless situations where just a single added field to a log statement that was already there would've saved us hours. The WithFields call is optional.

In general, with bdlm/log using any of the printf-family functions should be seen as a hint you should add a field, however, you can still use the printf-family functions with bdlm/log.

Default Fields

Often it's helpful to have fields always attached to log statements in an application or parts of one. For example, you may want to always log the request_id and user_ip in the context of a request. Instead of writing log.WithFields(log.Fields{"request_id": request_id, "user_ip": user_ip}) on every line, you can create a log.Entry to pass around instead:

requestLogger := log.WithFields(log.Fields{"request_id": request_id, "user_ip": user_ip})
requestLogger.Info("something happened on that request") # will log request_id and user_ip
requestLogger.Warn("something not great happened")

Hooks

You can add hooks for logging levels. For example to send errors to an exception tracking service on Error, Fatal and Panic, info to StatsD or log to multiple places simultaneously, e.g. syslog.

bdlm/log comes with built-in hooks. Add those, or your custom hook, in init:

import (
    log "github.com/bdlm/log"
    log_syslog "github.com/bdlm/log/hooks/syslog"
    "log/syslog"
)

func init() {
    // Use the Airbrake hook to report errors that have Error severity or above to
    // an exception tracker. You can create custom hooks, see the Hooks section.
    log.AddHook(airbrake.NewHook(123, "xyz", "production"))

    hook, err := log_syslog.NewSyslogHook("udp", "localhost:514", syslog.LOG_INFO, "")
    if err != nil {
        log.Error("Unable to connect to local syslog daemon")
    } else {
        log.AddHook(hook)
    }
}

Note: Syslog hook also support connecting to local syslog (Ex. "/dev/log" or "/var/run/syslog" or "/var/run/log"). For the detail, please check the syslog hook README.

A list of currently known of service hook can be found in this wiki page

Level logging

bdlm/log has six logging levels: Debug, Info, Warning, Error, Fatal and Panic.

log.Debug("Useful debugging information.")
log.Info("Something noteworthy happened!")
log.Warn("You should probably take a look at this.")
log.Error("Something failed but I'm not quitting.")
// Calls os.Exit(1) after logging
log.Fatal("Bye.")
// Calls panic() after logging
log.Panic("I'm bailing.")

You can set the logging level on a Logger, then it will only log entries with that severity or anything above it:

// Will log anything that is info or above (warn, error, fatal, panic). Default.
log.SetLevel(log.InfoLevel)

It may be useful to set log.Level = log.DebugLevel in a debug or verbose environment if your application has that.

Entries

Besides the fields added with WithField or WithFields some fields are automatically added to all logging events:

  1. time. The timestamp when the entry was created.
  2. msg. The logging message passed to {Info,Warn,Error,Fatal,Panic} after the AddFields call. E.g. Failed to send event.
  3. level. The logging level. E.g. info.
  4. caller. The filename and line number where the event occurred.
  5. host. The value of the HOSTNAME environment variable, if any.

Environments

bdlm/log has no notion of environment.

If you wish for hooks and formatters to only be used in specific environments, you should handle that yourself. For example, if your application has a global variable Environment, which is a string representation of the environment you could do:

import (
  log "github.com/bdlm/log"
)

init() {
    // do something here to set environment depending on an environment variable
    // or command-line flag
    if Environment == "production" {
        log.SetFormatter(&log.JSONFormatter{})
    } else {
        // The TextFormatter is default, you don't actually have to do this.
        log.SetFormatter(&log.TextFormatter{})
    }
}

This configuration is how bdlm/log was intended to be used, but JSON in production is mostly only useful if you do log aggregation with tools like Splunk or Logstash.

Formatters

The built-in logging formatters are:

  • log.TextFormatter. Logs the event in colors if stdout is a tty, otherwise without colors.
    • Note: to force colored output when there is no TTY, set the ForceTTY field to true. To force no colored output even if there is a TTY set the DisableTTY field to true. For Windows, see github.com/mattn/go-colorable.
    • All options are listed in the generated docs.
  • log.JSONFormatter. Logs fields as JSON.
Custom log formatting:

You can define your formatter by implementing the Formatter interface, requiring a Format method. Format takes an *Entry. entry.Data is a Fields type (map[string]interface{}) with all your fields as well as the default ones (see Entries section above):

type MyJSONFormatter struct {
}

log.SetFormatter(new(MyJSONFormatter))

func (f *MyJSONFormatter) Format(entry *Entry) ([]byte, error) {
    // Note this doesn't include Time, Level and Message which are available on
    // the Entry. Consult `godoc` on information about those fields or read the
    // source of the official loggers.
    serialized, err := json.Marshal(entry.Data)
        if err != nil {
            return nil, fmt.Errorf("Failed to marshal fields to JSON, %v", err)
        }
    return append(serialized, '\n'), nil
}

Logger as an io.Writer

bdlm/log can be transformed into an io.Writer. That writer is the end of an io.Pipe and it is your responsibility to close it.

w := logger.Writer()
defer w.Close()

srv := http.Server{
    // create a stdlib log.Logger that writes to
    // log.Logger.
    ErrorLog: log.New(w, "", 0),
}

Each line written to that writer will be printed the usual way, using formatters and hooks. The level for those entries is info.

This means that we can override the standard library logger easily:

logger := log.New()
logger.Formatter = &log.JSONFormatter{}

// Use `bdlm/log` for standard log output
// Note that `log` here references stdlib's log
log.SetOutput(logger.Writer())

Rotation

Log rotation is not provided with bdlm/log. Log rotation should be done by an external program (like logrotate(8)) that can compress and delete old log entries.

Testing

bdlm/log has a built in facility for asserting the presence of log messages. This is implemented through the test hook and provides:

  • decorators for existing logger (test.NewLocal and test.NewGlobal) which basically just add the test hook
  • a test logger (test.NewNullLogger) that just records log messages (and does not output any):
import(
    "github.com/bdlm/log"
    "github.com/bdlm/log/hooks/test"
    "github.com/stretchr/testify/assert"
    "testing"
)

func TestSomething(t*testing.T){
    logger, hook := test.NewNullLogger()
    logger.Error("Helloerror")

    assert.Equal(t, 1, len(hook.Entries))
    assert.Equal(t, log.ErrorLevel, hook.LastEntry().Level)
    assert.Equal(t, "Helloerror", hook.LastEntry().Message)

    hook.Reset()
    assert.Nil(t, hook.LastEntry())
}

Fatal handlers

bdlm/log can register one or more functions that will be called when any fatal level message is logged. The registered handlers will be executed before bdlm/log performs a os.Exit(1). This behavior may be helpful if callers need to gracefully shutdown. Unlike a panic("Something went wrong...") call which can be intercepted with a deferred recover a call to os.Exit(1) can not be intercepted.

...
handler := func() {
    // gracefully shutdown something...
}
log.RegisterExitHandler(handler)
...
log.Fatal("handler will fire before os.Exit(1) is called")

Thread safety

By default, Logger is protected by a mutex for concurrent writes. The mutex is held when calling hooks and writing logs. If you are sure such locking is not needed, you can call logger.SetNoLock() to disable the locking.

Situation when locking is not needed includes:

  • You have no hooks registered, or hooks calling is already thread-safe.

  • Writing to logger.Out is already thread-safe, for example:

    1. logger.Out is protected by locks.
    2. logger.Out is a os.File handler opened with O_APPEND flag, and every write is smaller than 4k. (This allow multi-thread/multi-process writing) (Refer to http://www.notthewizard.com/2014/06/17/are-files-appends-really-atomic/)

Documentation

Overview

Package log is a fork of the excellent [`sirupsen/logrus`](https://github.com/bdlm/log) package.

log is a structured logger for Go, completely API compatible with the standard library logger.

Package-level exported logger

package main

import (
  "github.com/bdlm/log"
)

func main() {
  log.WithFields(log.Fields{
    "animal": "walrus",
    "number": 1,
    "size":   10,
  }).Info("A walrus appears")
}

Output:

time="2015-09-07T08:48:33Z" level=info msg="A walrus appears" animal=walrus number=1 size=10

API Compatibility

Note that it is completely api-compatible with the stdlib logger, so you can replace your `log` imports everywhere with `"github.com/bdlm/log"` and you'll have the full flexibility of `bdlm/log` available. You can customize it further in your code:

package main

import (
  "os"
  log "github.com/bdlm/log"
)

func init() {
  // Log as JSON instead of the default ASCII formatter.
  log.SetFormatter(&log.JSONFormatter{})

  // Output to stdout instead of the default stderr. Can be any io.Writer, see
  // below for a File example.
  log.SetOutput(os.Stdout)

  // Only log the warning severity or above.
  log.SetLevel(log.WarnLevel)
}

func main() {
  log.WithFields(log.Fields{
    "animal": "walrus",
    "size":   10,
  }).Info("A group of walrus emerges from the ocean")

  log.WithFields(log.Fields{
    "omg":    true,
    "number": 122,
  }).Warn("The group's number increased tremendously!")

  log.WithFields(log.Fields{
    "omg":    true,
    "number": 100,
  }).Fatal("The ice breaks!")

  // A common pattern is to re-use fields between logging statements by re-using
  // the logrus.Entry returned from WithFields()
  contextLogger := log.WithFields(log.Fields{
    "common": "this is a common field",
    "other": "I also should be logged always",
  })

  contextLogger.Info("I'll be logged with common and other field")
  contextLogger.Info("Me too")
}

Managing secrets

`bdlm/log` also supports a "blacklist" of values that should not be logged. This can be used to help prevent or mitigate leaking secrets into log files:

import (
    "github.com/bdlm/log"
)

func main() {
    log.AddSecret("some-secret-text")
    log.Info("the secret is 'some-secret-text'")

    // Output: the secret is '****************'
}

Output to multiple locations

For more advanced usage such as logging to multiple locations from the same application, you can create an instance of the `bdlm/log` Logger:

package main

import (
  "os"
  "github.com/bdlm/log"
)

// Create a new instance of the logger. You can have any number of instances.
var logger = log.New()

func main() {
  // The API for setting attributes is a little different than the package level
  // exported logger. See Godoc.
  logger.Out = os.Stdout

  // You could set this to any `io.Writer` such as a file
  // file, err := os.OpenFile("logrus.log", os.O_CREATE|os.O_WRONLY, 0666)
  //  if err == nil {
  //    logger.Out = file
  //  } else {
  //    logger.Info("Failed to log to file, using default stderr")
  // }

  logger.WithFields(logrus.Fields{
    "animal": "walrus",
    "size":   10,
  }).Info("A group of walrus emerges from the ocean")
}

Output features

Color-coded output is available when attached to a TTY for development. A JSON formatter is also available for easy parsing by logstash or Splunk:

log.SetFormatter(&log.JSONFormatter{})

Output:

{"caller":"main.go:37 main.main","data":{"animal":"walrus"},"host":"myhost","level":"info","msg":"A group of walrus emerges from the ocean","time":"2018-08-10T23:08:02.860Z"}
{"caller":"main.go:61 main.main","host":"myhost","level":"warning","msg":"The group's number increased tremendously!","number":122,"omg":true,"time":"2018-08-10T23:08:02.863Z"}
{"caller":"main.go:99 main.main","data":{"animal":"walrus"},"host":"myhost","level":"info","msg":"A giant walrus appears!","time":"2018-08-10T23:08:02.877Z"}
{"caller":"main.go:61 main.main","data":{"animal":"walrus","host":"myhost","level":"info","msg":"Tremendously sized cow enters the ocean.","time":"2018-08-10T23:08:02.877Z"}

	// Contains all the fields set by the user.
	Data Fields

	// Time at which the log entry was created
	Time time.Time

	// Level the log entry was logged at: Debug, Info, Warn, Error, Fatal or Panic

The FieldLogger interface generalizes the Entry and Logger types

type FieldMap

type FieldMap map[FieldLabel]string

FieldMap allows customization of the key names for default fields.

type Fields

type Fields map[string]interface{}

Fields type, used to pass to `WithFields`.

type Formatter

type Formatter interface {
	Format(*Entry) ([]byte, error)
}

The Formatter interface is used to implement a custom Formatter. It takes an `Entry`. It exposes all the fields, including the default ones:

* `entry.Data["msg"]`. The message passed from Info, Warn, Error .. * `entry.Data["time"]`. The timestamp. * `entry.Data["level"]. The level the entry was logged at.

Any additional fields added with `WithField` or `WithFields` are also in `entry.Data`. Format is expected to return an array of bytes which are then logged to `logger.Out`.

type Hook

type Hook interface {
	Levels() []Level
	Fire(*Entry) error
}

Hook defines a hook to be fired when logging on the logging levels returned from `Levels()` on your implementation of the interface. Note that this is not fired in a goroutine or a channel with workers, you should handle such functionality yourself if your call is non-blocking and you don't wish for the logging calls for levels returned from `Levels()` to block.

type JSONFormatter

type JSONFormatter struct {
	// DataKey allows users to put all the log entry parameters into a
	// nested dictionary at a given key.
	DataKey string

	// DisableCaller disables caller data.
	DisableCaller bool

	// DisableHostname disables hostname logging.
	DisableHostname bool

	// DisableLevel controls level logging.
	DisableLevel bool

	// DisableMessage controls message logging.
	DisableMessage bool

	// DisableTimestamp controls timestamp logging.
	DisableTimestamp bool

	// DisableTTY disables TTY formatted output.
	DisableTTY bool

	// EscapeHTML escapes HTML characters.
	EscapeHTML bool

	// ForceTTY forces TTY output.
	ForceTTY bool

	// FieldMap allows users to customize the names of keys for default fields.
	// For example:
	// 	formatter := &TextFormatter{FieldMap: FieldMap{
	//      LabelCaller: "@caller",
	//      LabelData:   "@data",
	//      LabelHost:   "@hostname",
	//      LabelLevel:  "@loglevel",
	//      LabelMsg:    "@message",
	//      LabelTime:   "@timestamp",
	// 	}}
	FieldMap FieldMap

	// TimestampFormat to use for display when a full timestamp is printed
	TimestampFormat string

	sync.Once
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

JSONFormatter formats logs into parsable json

func (*JSONFormatter) Format

func (f *JSONFormatter) Format(entry *Entry) ([]byte, error)

Format renders a single log entry

type Level

type Level uint32

Level type

const (
	// PanicLevel level, highest level of severity. Logs and then calls panic with the
	// message passed to Debug, Info, ...
	PanicLevel Level = iota
	// FatalLevel level. Logs and then calls `os.Exit(1)`. It will exit even if the
	// logging level is set to Panic.
	FatalLevel
	// ErrorLevel level. Logs. Used for errors that should definitely be noted.
	// Commonly used for hooks to send errors to an error tracking service.
	ErrorLevel
	// WarnLevel level. Non-critical entries that deserve eyes.
	WarnLevel
	// InfoLevel level. General operational entries about what's going on inside the
	// application.
	InfoLevel
	// DebugLevel level. Usually only enabled when debugging. Very verbose logging.
	DebugLevel
)

These are the different logging levels. You can set the logging level to log on your instance of logger, obtained with `New()`.

func GetLevel

func GetLevel() Level

GetLevel returns the standard logger level.

func ParseLevel

func ParseLevel(lvl string) (Level, error)

ParseLevel takes a string level and returns the log level constant.

func (Level) String

func (level Level) String() string

Convert the Level to a string. E.g. PanicLevel becomes "panic".

type LevelHooks

type LevelHooks map[Level][]Hook

LevelHooks is an internal type for storing the hooks on a logger instance.

func (LevelHooks) Add

func (hooks LevelHooks) Add(hook Hook)

Add a hook to an instance of logger. This is called with `log.Hooks.Add(new(MyHook))` where `MyHook` implements the `Hook` interface.

func (LevelHooks) Fire

func (hooks LevelHooks) Fire(level Level, entry *Entry) error

Fire all the hooks for the passed level. Used by `entry.log` to fire appropriate hooks for a log entry.

type Logger

type Logger struct {
	// The logs are `io.Copy`'d to this in a mutex. It's common to set this to a
	// file, or leave it default which is `os.Stderr`. You can also set this to
	// something more adventurous, such as logging to Kafka.
	Out io.Writer
	// Hooks for the logger instance. These allow firing events based on logging
	// levels and log entries. For example, to send errors to an error tracking
	// service, log to StatsD or dump the core on fatal errors.
	Hooks LevelHooks
	// All log entries pass through the formatter before logged to Out. The
	// included formatters are `TextFormatter` and `JSONFormatter` for which
	// TextFormatter is the default. In development (when a TTY is attached) it
	// logs with colors, but to a file it wouldn't. You can easily implement your
	// own that implements the `Formatter` interface, see the `README` or included
	// formatters for examples.
	Formatter Formatter
	// The logging level the logger should log at. This is typically (and defaults
	// to) `log.Info`, which allows Info(), Warn(), Error() and Fatal() to be
	// logged.
	Level Level
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Logger defines properties for managing logs and implements the std.Logger interface.

func New

func New() *Logger

New creates a new logger. Configuration should be set by changing `Formatter`, `Out` and `Hooks` directly on the default logger instance. You can also just instantiate your own:

var log = &Logger{
  Out: os.Stderr,
  Formatter: new(JSONFormatter),
  Hooks: make(LevelHooks),
  Level: log.DebugLevel,
}

It's recommended to make this a global instance called `log`.
