Package `tint` implements a zero-dependency [`slog.Handler`](https://pkg.go.dev/log/slog#Handler)
that writes tinted (colorized) logs. Its output format is inspired by the `zerolog.ConsoleWriter` and
[`slog.TextHandler`](https://pkg.go.dev/log/slog#TextHandler).
The output format can be customized using [`Options`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/lmittmann/tint#Options)
which is a drop-in replacement for [`slog.HandlerOptions`](https://pkg.go.dev/log/slog#HandlerOptions).
```
go get github.com/lmittmann/tint
```
## Usage
```go
w := os.Stderr
// Create a new logger
logger := slog.New(tint.NewHandler(w, nil))
// Set global logger with custom options
slog.SetDefault(slog.New(
tint.NewHandler(w, &tint.Options{
Level: slog.LevelDebug,
TimeFormat: time.Kitchen,
}),
))
```
### Customize Attributes
`ReplaceAttr` can be used to alter or drop attributes. If set, it is called on
each non-group attribute before it is logged. See [`slog.HandlerOptions`](https://pkg.go.dev/log/slog#HandlerOptions)
for details.
```go
// Create a new logger with a custom TRACE level:
const LevelTrace = slog.LevelDebug - 4
w := os.Stderr
logger := slog.New(tint.NewHandler(w, &tint.Options{
Level: LevelTrace,
ReplaceAttr: func(groups []string, a slog.Attr) slog.Attr {
if a.Key == slog.LevelKey && len(groups) == 0 {
level, ok := a.Value.Any().(slog.Level)
if ok && level <= LevelTrace {
return tint.Attr(13, slog.String(a.Key, "TRC"))
}
}
return a
},
}))
```
```go
// Create a new logger that doesn't write the time
w := os.Stderr
logger := slog.New(
tint.NewHandler(w, &tint.Options{
ReplaceAttr: func(groups []string, a slog.Attr) slog.Attr {
if a.Key == slog.TimeKey && len(groups) == 0 {
return slog.Attr{}
}
return a
},
}),
)
```
```go
// Create a new logger that writes all errors in red
w := os.Stderr
logger := slog.New(
tint.NewHandler(w, &tint.Options{
ReplaceAttr: func(groups []string, a slog.Attr) slog.Attr {
if a.Value.Kind() == slog.KindAny {
if _, ok := a.Value.Any().(error); ok {
return tint.Attr(9, a)
}
}
return a
},
}),
)
```
### Automatically Enable Colors
Colors are enabled by default. Use the `Options.NoColor` field to disable
color output. To automatically enable colors based on terminal capabilities, use
e.g., the [`go-isatty`](https://github.com/mattn/go-isatty) package:
```go
w := os.Stderr
logger := slog.New(
tint.NewHandler(w, &tint.Options{
NoColor: !isatty.IsTerminal(w.Fd()),
}),
)
```
### Windows Support
Color support on Windows can be added by using e.g., the
[`go-colorable`](https://github.com/mattn/go-colorable) package:
```go
w := os.Stderr
logger := slog.New(
tint.NewHandler(colorable.NewColorable(w), nil),
)
```
