# go-log

## Introduction

The go-log library provides hierarchical loggers with a simple interface and

support for multiple backends.

## Usage

Go-log supports hierarchical logging: loggers are identified by a domain, a

multi-part string identifying the software component they are part of. This is

extremely useful when filtering large quantity of log messages in complex

software.

Loggers can create children. The domain of a child logger starts with the

domain of its parent; it also inherits its set of data.

Go-log currently supports the following backends:

- `terminal`: write human-readable log messages to the standard error output.

- `json`: write log messages encoded as JSON objects to the standard error

  output.

Refer to the [Go package documentation](https://pkg.go.dev/go.n16f.net/log) for

information about the API, and see the [`example`](cmd/example/example.go)

program.

The [go-service](https://go.n16f.net/service) library demonstrates how to use

go-log loggers for larger programs.
