A simple slog handler that outputs nicely
formatted JSON. The handler can be used as a drop in replacement for the
standard slog.JSONHandler while still supporting colorised output.
Uses github.com/tidwall/pretty for formatting and github.com/alecthomas/chroma for syntax highlighting.
Add the module to your project:
go get github.com/eberle1080/slog-pretty-json/slog/prettyjsonCreate a handler and set it as the default logger. The example below mirrors
testing/main.go in this repository.
package main
import (
"log/slog"
"os"
"github.com/eberle1080/slog-pretty-json/slog/prettyjson"
)
func main() {
handler, err := prettyjson.NewHandler(os.Stdout, &slog.HandlerOptions{
AddSource: true,
Level: slog.LevelDebug,
}, prettyjson.WithStyle("github"))
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
logger := slog.New(handler)
slog.SetDefault(logger)
slog.Info("This is an info message",
slog.String("key1", "value1"),
slog.Int("key2", 42),
slog.Bool("key3", true))
}
