A printing/logging super-interface. See log_interface.go.

At this point there is only one implementation to the interface that is backed by the seelog library.

See usage below.

There's a logger built into the Golang SDK. This logger might not meet all the requirements for your application and so throughout your application you might need to import and use some other library.

Once enough developers begin to work on the application some use the built in logger (which doesn't meet requirements), and as deadlines approach some forget the rule as they try to flesh out raw ideas.

Either way if the team aggrees to use a single inteface (like this one) then a pre-push, or test, could be written to make sure the 'bad' imports stay out of the application, while the imports for 'this' lib are white-listed.

This library provides a super-interface for all the console writing an application might attempt, so that instead of importing fmt, log, or some-log-lib, etc a single interface can be used and injected into application code. At which point imports can be scanned to gaurantee that the application code doesn't use any unwanted log or printing imports.

import "github.com/lcaballero/evil-ent/ent/seelog"

...

log, err := seelog.NewSeeLogWriter("seelog.xml")
if err != nil {
  panic(err)
}

// pass log to the rest of the application, set global, etc.
