  logex.Fatal("") // also trigger exec "os.Exit(1)"
  logex.Error(err) // print error
  logex.Struct(obj) // print objs follow such layout "%T(%+v)"
  logex.Pretty(obj) // print objs as JSON-style, more readable and hide non-publish properties, just JSON
}

Extendability

source code

type MyStruct struct {
  BiteMe bool
}

may change to

type MyStruct struct {
  BiteMe bool
  logex.Logger // just this
}

func main() {
  ms := new(MyStruct)
  ms.Info("woo!")
}

Runtime Tracing

All log will attach theirs stack info. Stack Info will shown by an layout, {packageName}.{FuncName}:{FileName}:{FileLine}

package main

import "github.com/chzyer/logex"

func test() {
    logex.Pretty("hello")
}

func main() {
    test()
}

Error Tracing

You can trace an error if you want.

package main

import (
    "github.com/chzyer/logex"
    "os"
)

func openfile() (*os.File, error) {
    f, err := os.Open("xxx")
    if err != nil {
        err = logex.Trace(err)
    }
    return f, err
}

func test() error {
    f, err := openfile()
    if err != nil {
        return logex.Trace(err)
    }
    f.Close()
    return nil
}

func main() {
    err := test()
    if err != nil {
        logex.Error(err)
        return
    }
    logex.Info("test success")
}
