[master] / log.go

// Package log implements a simple logger.
//
// It implements an API somewhat similar to "github.com/google/glog" with a
// focus towards simplicity and integration with standard tools such as
// systemd.
//
// There are command line flags (defined using the flag package) to control
// the behaviour of the default logger. By default, it will write to stderr
// without timestamps; this is suitable for systemd (or equivalent) logging.
//
// Command-line flags:
//
//  -alsologtostderr
//        also log to stderr, in addition to the file
//  -logfile string
//        file to log to (enables logtime)
//  -logtime
//        include the time when writing the log to stderr
//  -logtosyslog string
//        log to syslog, with the given tag
//  -v int
//        verbosity level (1 = debug)
