Logrus-stackdriver-formatter provides:

• logrus formatter for Stackdriver.
• go-kit log adapter for the above.

In addition to supporting level-based logging to Stackdriver, for Error, Fatal and Panic levels it will append error context for Error Reporting.

go get -u github.com/TV4/logrus-stackdriver-formatter

package main

import (

stackdriver "github.com/StevenACoffman/logrus-stackdriver-formatter"
"github.com/sirupsen/logrus"
)

var log = logrus.New()

func init() {
    log.Formatter = stackdriver.NewFormatter(
        stackdriver.WithService("your-service"), 
        stackdriver.WithVersion("v0.1.0"),
    )
    log.Level = logrus.DebugLevel

    log.Info("ready to log!")
}

Here's a sample entry (prettified) from the example:

{
  "serviceContext": {
    "service": "test-service",
    "version": "v0.1.0"
  },
  "message": "unable to parse integer: strconv.ParseInt: parsing \"text\": invalid syntax",
  "severity": "ERROR",
  "context": {
    "reportLocation": {
      "file": "github.com/StevenACoffman/logrus-stackdriver-formatter/example_test.go",
      "line": 21,
      "function": "ExampleLogError"
    }
  }
}

If you'd like to add additional context like the httpRequest, here's a convenience function for creating a HTTP logger:

func httpLogger(logger *logrus.Logger, r *http.Request) *logrus.Entry {
    return logger.WithFields(logrus.Fields{
        "httpRequest": map[string]interface{}{
            "method":    r.Method,
            "url":       r.URL.String(),
            "userAgent": r.Header.Get("User-Agent"),
            "referrer":  r.Header.Get("Referer"),
        },
    })
}

Then, in your HTTP handler, create a new context logger and all your log entries will have the HTTP request context appended to them:

func handler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    httplog := httpLogger(log, r)
    // ...
    httplog.Infof("Logging with HTTP request context")
}

Go-kit log is wrapped to encode conventions, enforce type-safety, provide leveled logging, and so on. It can be used for both typical application log events, and log-structured data streams.

import (
	"os"
	logadapter "github.com/StevenACoffman/logrus-stackdriver-formatter"
	kitlog "github.com/go-kit/kit/log"
)

func main() {
	w := kitlog.NewSyncWriter(os.Stderr)
	logger := logadapter.InitLogrusGoKitLogger(w)
	logger.Log("question", "what is the meaning of life?", "answer", 42)

	// Output:
	// question="what is the meaning of life?" answer=42
}

import (
	"os"
	logadapter "github.com/StevenACoffman/logrus-stackdriver-formatter"
	kitlog "github.com/go-kit/kit/log"
)

func main() {
	logger := logadapter.InitLogrusGoKitLogger(kitlog.NewSyncWriter(os.Stderr))
	logger = kitlog.With(logger, "instance_id", 123)

	logger.Log("msg", "starting")
	NewWorker(kitlog.With(logger, "component", "worker")).Run()
	NewSlacker(kitlog.With(logger, "component", "slacker")).Run()
}

// Output:
// instance_id=123 msg=starting
// instance_id=123 component=worker msg=running
// instance_id=123 component=slacker msg=running

go-kit's package log is centered on the one-method Logger interface.

type Logger interface {
	Log(keyvals ...interface{}) error
}

This interface, and its supporting code like is the product of much iteration and evaluation. For more details on the evolution of the Logger interface, see The Hunt for a Logger Interface, a talk by Chris Hines. Also, please see #63, #76, #131, #157, #164, and #252 to review historical conversations about package log and the Logger interface.

Value-add packages and suggestions, like improvements to the leveled logger, are of course welcome. Good proposals should

• Be composable with contextual loggers,
• Not break the behavior of log.Caller in any wrapped contextual loggers, and
• Be friendly to packages that accept only an unadorned log.Logger. ber-common/zap](https://github.com/uber-common/zap), a zero-alloc logging library, includes a comparison with kit/log

• Both go-kit log and logr both provide to developers clean, minimal surface area for sending log messages. However, neither has direct, first-class stackdriver support.
• Uber's Zap is very performant, but it's SugaredLogger API is unfamiliar to me.

So one choice could be logr -> zapr -> zap -> zap-stackdriver or zapdriver but zapr still uses dep, didn't have go module support.

I could also have gone with go-kit log -> zap -> zap-stackdriver or zapdriver.

Instead, I pulled a bunch of people's forks together into this piece of mad science because it seemed like it would work. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
