Vinted Rust logger

Structured logger for Vinted Rust applications. Can log in the following ways:

• Sends logs formatted as JSON messages to a UDP socket. Intended for current production uses.
• Sends logs formatted as JSON messages to a stdout. Intended for containers running in Kubernetes.
• Sends plain logs to stdout. Intended for local development.

Using in applications

This crate depends on tracing crate, import it to your crate. In Cargo.toml:

tracing = "0.1"

And then add this crate to your executable crate:

vinted-logger = { git = "https://github.com/vinted/vinted-logger-rs" }

Logger is initialized from your main method.

To add console logger:

let _ = vinted_logger::try_init("console", vinted_logger::Target::Console);

To add console JSON logger:

let _ = vinted_logger::try_init("console", vinted_logger::Target::ConsoleJson);

To add UDP JSON logger:

let _ = vinted_logger::try_init("console", vinted_logger::Target::UdpJson);

Usage examples

Simple logging:

info!("Some message");
trace!("Some message");
error!("Some message");
debug!("Some message");
warn!("Some message");
log!("Some message");

Structured logging:

info!(foo="bar", "Some message");
trace!(foo="bar", "Some message");
error!(foo="bar", "Some message");
debug!(foo="bar", "Some message");
warn!(foo="bar", "Some message");
log!(foo="bar", "Some message");

Messages are produced in the following JSON format:

{
  "@timestamp": "2021-04-20T12:42:57.353066+00:00",
  "level": "INFO",
  "facility": "console",
  "message": "Binding to http://0.0.0.0:9550",
  "target": "svc_search",
  "thread_id": "ThreadId(1)",
  "thread_name": "main",
  "file": "bin/src/main.rs",
  "module": "svc_search",
  "line": 73,
  "host": "localhost"
}
