zap

Alternative logging through zap. Thanks for Pull Request from @yezooz

Usage

Start using it

Download and install it:

go get github.com/gin-contrib/zap

Import it in your code:

import "github.com/gin-contrib/zap"

Example

See the example.

package main

import (
  "fmt"
  "time"

  ginzap "github.com/gin-contrib/zap"
  "github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
  "go.uber.org/zap"
)

func main() {
  r := gin.New()

  logger, _ := zap.NewProduction()

  // Add a ginzap middleware, which:
  //   - Logs all requests, like a combined access and error log.
  //   - Logs to stdout.
  //   - RFC3339 with UTC time format.
  r.Use(ginzap.Ginzap(logger, time.RFC3339, true))

  // Logs all panic to error log
  //   - stack means whether output the stack info.
  r.Use(ginzap.RecoveryWithZap(logger, true))

  // Example ping request.
  r.GET("/ping", func(c *gin.Context) {
    c.String(200, "pong "+fmt.Sprint(time.Now().Unix()))
  })

  // Example when panic happen.
  r.GET("/panic", func(c *gin.Context) {
    panic("An unexpected error happen!")
  })

  // Listen and Server in 0.0.0.0:8080
  r.Run(":8080")
}

Skip logging

When you want to skip logging for specific path, please use GinzapWithConfig

r.Use(GinzapWithConfig(utcLogger, &Config{
  TimeFormat: time.RFC3339,
  UTC: true,
  SkipPaths: []string{"/no_log"},
}))

Custom Zap fields

example for custom log request body, response request ID or log Open Telemetry TraceID.

func main() {
  r := gin.New()

  logger, _ := zap.NewProduction()

  r.Use(ginzap.GinzapWithConfig(logger, &ginzap.Config{
    UTC:        true,
    TimeFormat: time.RFC3339,
    Context: ginzap.Fn(func(c *gin.Context) []zapcore.Field {
      fields := []zapcore.Field{}
      // log request ID
      if requestID := c.Writer.Header().Get("X-Request-Id"); requestID != "" {
        fields = append(fields, zap.String("request_id", requestID))
      }

      // log trace and span ID
      if trace.SpanFromContext(c.Request.Context()).SpanContext().IsValid() {
        fields = append(fields, zap.String("trace_id", trace.SpanFromContext(c.Request.Context()).SpanContext().TraceID().String()))
        fields = append(fields, zap.String("span_id", trace.SpanFromContext(c.Request.Context()).SpanContext().SpanID().String()))
      }

      // log request body
      var body []byte
      var buf bytes.Buffer
      tee := io.TeeReader(c.Request.Body, &buf)
      body, _ = io.ReadAll(tee)
      c.Request.Body = io.NopCloser(&buf)
      fields = append(fields, zap.String("body", string(body)))

      return fields
    }),
  }))

  // Example ping request.
  r.GET("/ping", func(c *gin.Context) {
    c.Writer.Header().Add("X-Request-Id", "1234-5678-9012")
    c.String(200, "pong "+fmt.Sprint(time.Now().Unix()))
  })

  r.POST("/ping", func(c *gin.Context) {
    c.Writer.Header().Add("X-Request-Id", "9012-5678-1234")
    c.String(200, "pong "+fmt.Sprint(time.Now().Unix()))
  })

  // Listen and Server in 0.0.0.0:8080
  r.Run(":8080")
}
