A golang logging utility library

This library contains a collection of utilities and implementations built around the logr.Logger interface by Brian Ketelsen.

Implementations are provided for:

• golangs log.Logger
• logrus by Simon Eskildsen
• zap by Uber
• zerolog by Olivier Poitrey

Each of the above implementation comes with a benchmark. The short version: when interested in having control about the format and destination of the output, go with logrus. If performance is the main concern, go with zerolog.

There is also an implementation using an internal buffer.

The package log provides a global logger which aims to be compatible to the one provided by log.Logger.

Sometimes one might want to use a logger through the io.Writer interface. This is where the package writer_adapter comes in handy.
