Installation

If you want to use this library for one of your projects, you can install it like any other Go library

go get github.com/kkrypt0nn/tangra

Customizing

Prefix

The prefix, what comes before the message, can be changed with the SetPrefix method on a Logger structure.

The default prefix is ${datetime} ${level:color}${level:name}${reset}:

Placeholders

There are formatting placeholders that will be replaced in both the message and the prefix that can be seen here. All the placeholders in effect can be seen in the placeholders example.

For example, logging the following message

${fg:red}${effect:blink}${effect:bold}${sys:username} says hello!

Will print a red blinking message in bold that says <username> says hello!, where <username> is the username on your system.

Styling

You can choose whether you want to style your messages or not with the SetStyling method on a Logger structure. Styling includes foreground colors, background colors and special effects such as bold, and others - see the terminal package.

Note: The styling will not apply to the message if it is not supported by the terminal.

Log File

Logs can also be written inside a log file with styling removed. See the example here.
