ctxslog

An slog handler to pull shared information from context.Context for use with structured logging.

Installation

go get github.com/felttrip/ctxslog

Usage

• Add ctxslog into the handler chain when calling SetDefault with `slog.
• Use ctxslog.WithValue or ctxslog.WithValues to add Key Value pairs to the context to be logged
  • This operates the same way as context.Context.WithValue but with the addition of keeping track of which fields on the context should be logged.
• Use the slog.InfoContext, slog.WarnContext, or slog.ErrorContext functions providing the context that has the fields you want to log attached.

slog.SetDefault(slog.New(ctxslog.NewHandler(slog.NewJSONHandler(os.Stdout, nil))))

ctx := ctxslog.WithValue(context.Background(), "AccountID", 123456789)
ctx = ctxslog.WithValue(ctx, "email", "noone@felttrip.com")
ctx = ctxslog.WithValue(ctx, "sender", "greg@BailysInAShoe.lake")

slog.InfoContext(ctx, "Info With Context")
fmt.Println()
ctx = ctxslog.WithValues(context.Background(), map[string]interface{}{
  "AccountID": 987654321,
  "email":     "bob@TheBuilder.fake",
  "complexData": ComplexData{
    IntField:   123,
    StrField:   "DEADBEEF",
    BoolField:  true,
    SliceField: []string{"one", "two", "three"},
  },
})

slog.ErrorContext(ctx, "Error With Context")
