liitu

liitu is a pretty logging library for go with focus on readability. It currently implements formatters for github.com/rs/zerolog and log/slog.

liitu == crayon

From a old finnish proverb:

"Ne piirtää kel on liituu"
Translation: "Those who have cryons/chalk will draw"

Getting started

go get -u github.com/lime008/liitu

Using with slog

package main

import (
	"os"

	"github.com/lime008/liitu"
	"log/slog"
)

func main() {
	logger = slog.New(liitu.NewSlogHandler(os.Stderr, nil))
	log.Debug().Msg("hi")
	log.Debug().Msg("hello")
}

Using with zerolog

package main

import (
	"os"

	"github.com/lime008/liitu"
	"github.com/rs/zerolog/log"
)

func main() {
	log.Logger = log.Output(liitu.ZerologWriter{Out: os.Stderr})
	log.Debug().Msg("hi")
	log.Debug().Msg("hello")
}
