# slogger: simple go logger
This is a small go package that provides a few simple logging functions to aid in development.
This package allows you to register a new logger very similar to how you would a standard go `log.Logger`,
with the added ability to pass paremeters to configure a log color (using ANSI color codes) and some log prefixese.
[pkg.go.dev docs page](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/jesse-rb/slogger-go/v2)
**install in project**
Using go modules, from your project directory you can run:
```
go get github.com/jesse-rb/slogger-go/v2
```
**example usage**
```
package main
import (
"log"
"os"
slogger "github.com/jesse-rb/slogger-go"
)
func main() {
slogger.GlobalPrefix = "[slogger-example]"
// Declare some loggers
infoLogger := slogger.New(os.Stdout, slogger.ANSIBlue, "INFO", log.Lshortfile+log.Ldate)
errorLogger := slogger.New(os.Stderr, slogger.ANSIRed, "ERROR", log.Lshortfile+log.Ldate)
// Log some things
infoLogger.Log("main()", "Something worth noting happened", 2+4)
errorLogger.Log("main()", "Some horrible error happened", []int{3, 5, 7})
}
```
**preview logs**
```
[slogger-example] -> INFO -> 2025/08/08 main.go:18: main() -> Something worth noting happened -> data:
6
[slogger-example] -> ERROR -> 2025/08/08 main.go:19: main() -> Some horrible error happened -> data:
[]int{3, 5, 7}
```
