logr is a minimal logging interface for Go that decouples applications and libraries from specific logging implementations. Libraries emit logs via a small Logger API while logging frameworks implement the LogSink interface to provide actual output.

Use cases

  • decouple Go libraries from specific logging frameworks
  • swap logging implementations without changing library code
  • emit structured logs from Go applications
  • pass a logger into libraries with minimal dependency fan-out
  • implement a custom logging backend for Go apps

When to choose

  • you write Go libraries that need logging without hard dependencies
  • you want applications to control the logging implementation in main()
  • you need a lightweight, structured logging API

When to avoid

  • you need a full logging implementation with output handling out of the box
  • you prefer the standard library log/slog directly
  • your project is not written in Go
