2022/11/2 4:24:52
本文主要是介绍【讲师分享】slog:Go官方版结构化日志包,对大家解决编程问题具有一定的参考价值,需要的程序猿们随着小编来一起学习吧!
Go自诞生以来就在其标准库内置了log包作为Go源码输出日志的标准组件,该包被广泛应用于Go标准库自身以及Go社区项目中。
不过,针对Go标准库log包,Go社区要求改进的声音始终不断,主流声音聚焦在以下几点:
- log包是为了方便人类可读而设计的,不支持便于机器解析的结构化日志(比如像zap那样输出json格式的日志);
- 不支持日志级别(log level);
- log包采用专有日志输出格式,又没有提供可供Go社区共同遵循的Logger接口类型,导致Go社区项目使用的log输出格式五花八门,相互之间又难以兼容。
Go社区曾经尝试过合力改进标准库log包,并撰写了Proposal设计初稿,但最终因各种原因都没有被Go核心团队接受。
2022年8月末,Go团队的Jonathan Amsterdam发起discussion,意在和社区讨论为Go标准库添加结构化的、支持日志级别的日志包相关事宜,并形成一个一致的Proposal。
Jonathan Amsterdam将该结构化日志包命名为slog,计划放在log/slog下。他还在golang.org/x/exp下面给出了slog的初始实现,这几天该Proposal正式进入review阶段。至于何时能正式落地到Go正式版本中还不可知。
在这篇文章中,我们就来简单看一下slog的proposal以及它的初始实现。
1. slog的设计简介
slog的设计之初对社区目前的一些应用广泛的log包进行了详细调研,比如uber zap、zerolog等,因此slog的设计也算是“站在前人的肩膀上”,尤其是uber zap。
Jonathan Amsterdam为此次slog的设计设定了如下目标(摘自slog的proposal):
- 易用性
通过对现有日志包的调查发现,程序员们希望有一套简洁且易于理解的logging API。在此proposal中,我们将采用目前最流行的方式来表达键值对,即交替传入键和值。
- 高性能高
该log API的设计将尽量减少内存分配和加锁。它提供了一个交替输入键和值的方法,虽略繁琐,但速度更快;
- 可以与运行时跟踪(tracing)集成
Go团队正在开发一个改进的运行时跟踪(runtime tracing)系统。本软件包的日志将可以被无缝集成到这个跟踪系统中,使开发者能够将他们的程序行为与运行时的行为联系起来。
这里基于slog proposal和golang.org/x/exp/slog的源码,画了一幅slog的结构示意图:
简单解释一下这个图:
slog从逻辑上分为前端(front)和后端(backend)。
slog前端就是slog提供给使用者的API,不过,很遗憾slog依旧像log那样没有抽取出Logger接口,而是定义了一个Logger结构体,并提供了如图中的那些方法,这也意味着我们依旧无法在整个Go社区统一前端API;
通过前端方法,slog将日志内容以及相关属性信息封装成一个slog.Record类型实例,然后传递给slog的后端。
如果你使用的是Go社区的第三方log包的前端方法,比如zap,如果要使用slog后端,你同样需要对zap等进行封装,让其输出slog.Record并传递给slog的后端(目前尚没有这方面示例)。
slog将后端抽象为slog.Handler接口,接口如下:
// // Any of the Handler's methods may be called concurrently with itself // or with other methods. It is the responsibility of the Handler to // manage this concurrency. type Handler interface { // Enabled reports whether the handler handles records at the given level. // The handler ignores records whose level is lower. // Enabled is called early, before any arguments are processed, // to save effort if the log event should be discarded. Enabled(Level) bool // Handle handles the Record. // It will only be called if Enabled returns true. // Handle methods that produce output should observe the following rules: // - If r.Time is the zero time, ignore the time. // - If an Attr's key is the empty string, ignore the Attr. Handle(r Record) error // WithAttrs returns a new Handler whose attributes consist of // both the receiver's attributes and the arguments. // The Handler owns the slice: it may retain, modify or discard it. WithAttrs(attrs []Attr) Handler // WithGroup returns a new Handler with the given group appended to // the receiver's existing groups. // The keys of all subsequent attributes, whether added by With or in a // Record, should be qualified by the sequence of group names. // // How this qualification happens is up to the Handler, so long as // this Handler's attribute keys differ from those of another Handler // with a different sequence of group names. // // A Handler should treat WithGroup as starting a Group of Attrs that ends // at the end of the log event. That is, // // logger.WithGroup("s").LogAttrs(slog.Int("a", 1), slog.Int("b", 2)) // // should behave like // // logger.LogAttrs(slog.Group("s", slog.Int("a", 1), slog.Int("b", 2))) WithGroup(name string) Handler }
接口类型的存在,让slog的后端扩展性更强,我们除了可以使用slog提供的两个内置Handler实现:TextHandler和JSONHandler之外,还可以基于第三方log包定义或完全自定义后端Handler的实现。
slog内置两个最常用的Handler:TextHandler和JSONHandler。TextHandler顾名思义,像标准库log包那样将日志以一行文本那样输出;而JSONHandler则是以JSON格式输出log内容与各个属性,我们看一下作者给的例子:
// github.com/bigwhite/experiments/tree/master/slog-examples/demo1/main.go package main import ( "net" "golang.org/x/exp/slog" ) func main() { slog.SetDefault(slog.New(slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stderr))) slog.Info("hello", "name", "Al") slog.Error("oops", net.ErrClosed, "status", 500) slog.LogAttrs(slog.ErrorLevel, "oops", slog.Int("status", 500), slog.Any("err", net.ErrClosed)) }
这是一个使用内置TextHandler的示例,我们运行一下看看结果:
time=2022-10-23T18:41:35.074+08:00 level=INFO msg=hello name=Al time=2022-10-23T18:41:35.074+08:00 level=ERROR msg=oops status=500 err="use of closed network connection" time=2022-10-23T18:41:35.074+08:00 level=ERROR msg=oops status=500 err="use of closed network connection"
我们看到,输出的日志以“key1=value1 key2=value2 … keyN=valueN”形式呈现,time和level两个key是必选,调用Error方法时,err这个key也是必选的。
接下来,我们将TextHandler换成JSONHandler:
slog.SetDefault(slog.New(slog.NewTextHandler(os.Stderr))) 改为: slog.SetDefault(slog.New(slog.NewJSONHandler(os.Stderr)))
运行修改后的程序,我们得到:
{"time":"2022-10-23T18:45:26.2131+08:00","level":"INFO","msg":"hello","name":"Al"} {"time":"2022-10-23T18:45:26.213287+08:00","level":"ERROR","msg":"oops","status":500,"err":"use of closed network connection"} {"time":"2022-10-23T18:45:26.21331+08:00","level":"ERROR","msg":"oops","status":500,"err":"use of closed network connection"}
我们看到,每条日志以一条json记录的形式呈现,这样的结构化日志非常适合机器解析。
如果我们去掉上面SetDefault那一行代码,再来运行一下程序:
2022/10/23 18:47:51 INFO hello name=Al 2022/10/23 18:47:51 ERROR oops status=500 err="use of closed network connection" 2022/10/23 18:47:51 ERROR oops status=500 err="use of closed network connection"
我们得到了不同于TextHandler和JSONHandler的日志样式,不过这个日志样式非常眼熟!这不和log包的输出样式相同么!没错,如果没有显式将新创建的Logger设置为默认Logger,slog会使用defaultHandler,而defaultHandler的output函数就是log.Output:
// slog项目 // logger.go var defaultLogger atomic.Value func init() { defaultLogger.Store(Logger{ handler: newDefaultHandler(log.Output), // 这里直接使用了log.Output }) } // handler.go type defaultHandler struct { ch *commonHandler // log.Output, except for testing output func(calldepth int, message string) error } func newDefaultHandler(output func(int, string) error) *defaultHandler { return &defaultHandler{ ch: &commonHandler{json: false}, output: output, } }
slog的前端是“固定格式”的,因此没什么可定制的。但后端这块倒是有不少玩法,接下来我们重点看一下后端。
2. Handler选项(HandlerOptions)
slog提供了HandlerOptions结构:
// handler.go // HandlerOptions are options for a TextHandler or JSONHandler. // A zero HandlerOptions consists entirely of default values. type HandlerOptions struct { // Add a "source" attribute to the output whose value is of the form // "file:line". // This is false by default, because there is a cost to extracting this // information. AddSource bool // Ignore records with levels below Level.Level(). // The default is InfoLevel. Level Leveler // If set, ReplaceAttr is called on each attribute of the message, // and the returned value is used instead of the original. If the returned // key is empty, the attribute is omitted from the output. // // The built-in attributes with keys "time", "level", "source", and "msg" // are passed to this function first, except that time and level are omitted // if zero, and source is omitted if AddSourceLine is false. // // ReplaceAttr can be used to change the default keys of the built-in // attributes, convert types (for example, to replace a `time.Time` with the // integer seconds since the Unix epoch), sanitize personal information, or // remove attributes from the output. ReplaceAttr func(a Attr) Attr }
通过该结构,我们可以为输出的日志添加source信息,即输出日志的文件名与行号,下面就是一个例子:
// github.com/bigwhite/experiments/tree/master/slog-examples/demo2/main.go package main import ( "net" "os" "golang.org/x/exp/slog" ) func main() { opts := slog.HandlerOptions{ AddSource: true, } slog.SetDefault(slog.New(opts.NewJSONHandler(os.Stderr))) slog.Info("hello", "name", "Al") slog.Error("oops", net.ErrClosed, "status", 500) slog.LogAttrs(slog.ErrorLevel, "oops", slog.Int("status", 500), slog.Any("err", net.ErrClosed)) }
运行上述程序,我们将得到:
{"time":"2022-10-23T21:46:25.718112+08:00","level":"INFO","source":"/Users/tonybai/go/src/github.com/bigwhite/experiments/slog-examples/demo2/main.go:16","msg":"hello","name":"Al"} {"time":"2022-10-23T21:46:25.718324+08:00","level":"ERROR","source":"/Users/tonybai/go/src/github.com/bigwhite/experiments/slog-examples/demo2/main.go:17","msg":"oops","status":500,"err":"use of closed network connection"} {"time":"2022-10-23T21:46:25.718352+08:00","level":"ERROR","source":"/Users/tonybai/go/src/github.com/bigwhite/experiments/slog-examples/demo2/main.go:18","msg":"oops","status":500,"err":"use of closed network connection"}
我们也可以通过HandlerOptions实现日志级别的动态设置,比如下面例子:
// github.com/bigwhite/experiments/tree/master/slog-examples/demo3/main.go func main() { var lvl = &slog.AtomicLevel{} lvl.Set(slog.DebugLevel) opts := slog.HandlerOptions{ Level: lvl, } slog.SetDefault(slog.New(opts.NewJSONHandler(os.Stderr))) slog.Info("before resetting log level:") slog.Info("hello", "name", "Al") slog.Error("oops", net.ErrClosed, "status", 500) slog.LogAttrs(slog.ErrorLevel, "oops", slog.Int("status", 500), slog.Any("err", net.ErrClosed)) slog.Info("after resetting log level to error level:") lvl.Set(slog.ErrorLevel) slog.Info("hello", "name", "Al") slog.Error("oops", net.ErrClosed, "status", 500) slog.LogAttrs(slog.ErrorLevel, "oops", slog.Int("status", 500), slog.Any("err", net.ErrClosed)) }
slog.HandlerOptions的字段Level是一个接口类型变量,其类型为slog.Leveler:
type Leveler interface { Level() Level }
实现了Level方法的类型都可以赋值给HandlerOptions的Level字段,slog提供了支持并发访问的AtomicLevel供我们直接使用,上面的demo3使用的就是AtomicLevel,初始时设置的是DebugLevel,于是第一次调用Info、Error等API输出的日志都会得到输出,之后重置日志级别为ErrorLevel,这样Info API输出的日志将不会被呈现出来,下面是demo3程序的运行结果:
{"time":"2022-10-23T21:58:48.467666+08:00","level":"INFO","msg":"before resetting log level:"} {"time":"2022-10-23T21:58:48.467818+08:00","level":"INFO","msg":"hello","name":"Al"} {"time":"2022-10-23T21:58:48.467825+08:00","level":"ERROR","msg":"oops","status":500,"err":"use of closed network connection"} {"time":"2022-10-23T21:58:48.467842+08:00","level":"ERROR","msg":"oops","status":500,"err":"use of closed network connection"} {"time":"2022-10-23T21:58:48.467846+08:00","level":"INFO","msg":"after resetting log level to error level:"} {"time":"2022-10-23T21:58:48.46785+08:00","level":"ERROR","msg":"oops","status":500,"err":"use of closed network connection"} {"time":"2022-10-23T21:58:48.467854+08:00","level":"ERROR","msg":"oops","status":500,"err":"use of closed network connection"}
HandlerOptions的第三个字段ReplaceAttr有什么功用,就留给大家自己探索一下。
除了利用HandleOptions做一些定制之外,我们也可以完全自定义Handler接口的实现,下面我们就用一个示例来说明一下。
3. 自定义Handler接口的实现
我们来定义一个新Handler:ChanHandler,该Handler实现将日志写入channel的行为(用来模拟日志写入kafka),我们来建立该ChanHandler:
// github.com/bigwhite/experiments/tree/master/slog-examples/demo4/main.go type ChanHandler struct { slog.Handler ch chan []byte buf *bytes.Buffer } func (h *ChanHandler) Enabled(level slog.Level) bool { return h.Handler.Enabled(level) } func (h *ChanHandler) Handle(r slog.Record) error { err := h.Handler.Handle(r) if err != nil { return err } var nb = make([]byte, h.buf.Len()) copy(nb, h.buf.Bytes()) h.ch <- nb h.buf.Reset() return nil } func (h *ChanHandler) WithAttrs(as []slog.Attr) slog.Handler { return &ChanHandler{ buf: h.buf, ch: h.ch, Handler: h.Handler.WithAttrs(as), } } func (h *ChanHandler) WithGroup(name string) slog.Handler { return &ChanHandler{ buf: h.buf, ch: h.ch, Handler: h.Handler.WithGroup(name), } } func NewChanHandler(ch chan []byte) *ChanHandler { var b = make([]byte, 256) h := &ChanHandler{ buf: bytes.NewBuffer(b), ch: ch, } h.Handler = slog.NewJSONHandler(h.buf) return h }
我们看到ChanHandler内嵌了slog.JSONHandler,对slog.Handler接口的实现多半由内嵌的JSONHandler去完成,唯一不同的是Handle方法,这里要把JSONHandler处理完的日志copy出来并发送到channel中。下面是该demo的main函数:
// github.com/bigwhite/experiments/tree/master/slog-examples/demo4/main.go func main() { var ch = make(chan []byte, 100) attrs := []slog.Attr{ {Key: "field1", Value: slog.StringValue("value1")}, {Key: "field2", Value: slog.StringValue("value2")}, } slog.SetDefault(slog.New(NewChanHandler(ch).WithAttrs(attrs))) go func() { // 模拟channel的消费者,用来消费日志 for { b := <-ch fmt.Println(string(b)) } }() slog.Info("hello", "name", "Al") slog.Error("oops", net.ErrClosed, "status", 500) slog.LogAttrs(slog.ErrorLevel, "oops", slog.Int("status", 500), slog.Any("err", net.ErrClosed)) time.Sleep(3 * time.Second) }
运行上述程序,我们将得到下面输出结果:
{"time":"2022-10-23T23:09:01.358702+08:00","level":"INFO","msg":"hello","field1":"value1","field2":"value2","name":"Al"} {"time":"2022-10-23T23:09:01.358836+08:00","level":"ERROR","msg":"oops","field1":"value1","field2":"value2","status":500,"err":"use of closed network connection"} {"time":"2022-10-23T23:09:01.358856+08:00","level":"ERROR","msg":"oops","field1":"value1","field2":"value2","status":500,"err":"use of closed network connection"}
4. slog的性能
我们再来看看slog的性能,我们直接使用了slog源码中自带的与zap的性能对比数据,使用benchstat工具查看对比结果如下:
$ benchstat zapbenchmarks/zap.bench slog.bench name old time/op new time/op delta Attrs/async_discard/5_args-8 348ns ± 2% 88ns ± 2% -74.77% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/async_discard/10_args-8 570ns ± 2% 280ns ± 2% -50.94% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/async_discard/40_args-8 1.84µs ± 2% 0.91µs ± 3% -50.37% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/fastText_discard/5_args-8 476ns ± 2% 200ns ±45% -57.92% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/fastText_discard/10_args-8 822ns ± 7% 524ns ± 2% -36.27% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/fastText_discard/40_args-8 2.70µs ± 3% 2.01µs ± 3% -25.76% (p=0.008 n=5+5) name old alloc/op new alloc/op delta Attrs/async_discard/5_args-8 320B ± 0% 0B -100.00% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/async_discard/10_args-8 640B ± 0% 208B ± 0% -67.50% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/async_discard/40_args-8 2.69kB ± 0% 1.41kB ± 0% -47.64% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/fastText_discard/5_args-8 320B ± 0% 0B -100.00% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/fastText_discard/10_args-8 641B ± 0% 208B ± 0% -67.55% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/fastText_discard/40_args-8 2.70kB ± 0% 1.41kB ± 0% -47.63% (p=0.029 n=4+4) name old allocs/op new allocs/op delta Attrs/async_discard/5_args-8 1.00 ± 0% 0.00 -100.00% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/async_discard/10_args-8 1.00 ± 0% 1.00 ± 0% ~ (all equal) Attrs/async_discard/40_args-8 1.00 ± 0% 1.00 ± 0% ~ (all equal) Attrs/fastText_discard/5_args-8 1.00 ± 0% 0.00 -100.00% (p=0.008 n=5+5) Attrs/fastText_discard/10_args-8 1.00 ± 0% 1.00 ± 0% ~ (all equal) Attrs/fastText_discard/40_args-8 1.00 ± 0% 1.00 ± 0% ~ (all equal)
我们看到,slog的性能相对于本就以高性能著称的zap还要好上不少,内存分配也减少很多。
5. 小结
通过对slog的初步探索,感觉slog整体上借鉴了zap等第三方log包的设计,都采用前后端分离的策略,但似乎又比zap好理解一些。
前面示例中提到了使用起来很方便的前端API,谈到了slog的高性能,slog设计目标中与runtime tracing集成在proposal中提及不多,更多谈到的是其与context.Context的集成(通过slog.WithContext和slog.FromContext等),也许这就是与runtime tracing集成的基础吧。
Jonathan Amsterdam在proposal也提到过,每个第三方log包都有其特点,不指望slog能替换掉所有第三方log包,只是希望slog能与第三方log包充分交互,实现每个程序有一个共同的 “后端”。 一个有许多依赖关系的应用程序可能会发现,它已经连接了许多日志包。如果所有的包都支持slog提出的Handler接口,那么应用程序就可以创建一个单一的Handler并为每个日志库安装一次,以便在其所有的依赖中获得一致的日志。
个人观点:等slog加入标准库后,新项目推荐使用slog。
