# httplog for Go

[![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/lassik/go-httplog)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/lassik/go-httplog)

This is a composable HTTP logging library. It doesn't dictate how you

should log your stuff. Instead, it provides a toolkit to help roll

your own logger. Use the parts you like and ignore the rest.

* It's based around a `LogRequest` struct that contains parsed info

  about a HTTP request.

* The `LogHandler` middleware lets you log any HTTP request. You give

  it a function that gets a `LogRequest`. The function can format and

  write log entries any way it likes.

* To format log entries, you can use the `CommonLogLine` or

  `CombinedLogLine` function. It's also easy to roll your own

  formatting: `LogRequest` should have all the info you need.

The hard parts of this library were extracted from the [Gorilla

Handlers](https://github.com/gorilla/handlers) package. Credit for

them goes to Mahmud Ridwan. I just added the composable framework

around them. The Gorilla libraries are great, but at the time of

writing they impose some restrictions that make it hard to do fancy

stuff like log into multiple places and use custom formats. This

logging library is also framework-agnostic and doesn't depend on

Gorilla or anything else outside the Go standard libraries.
