# :zap: zap [![GoDoc][doc-img]][doc] [![Build Status][ci-img]][ci] [![Coverage Status][cov-img]][cov]
Blazing fast, structured, leveled logging in Go.
## Installation
`go get -u go.uber.org/zap`
Note that zap only supports the two most recent minor versions of Go.
## Quick Start
In contexts where performance is nice, but not critical, use the
`SugaredLogger`. It's 4-10x faster than other structured logging
packages and includes both structured and `printf`-style APIs.
```go
logger, _ := zap.NewProduction()
defer logger.Sync() // flushes buffer, if any
sugar := logger.Sugar()
sugar.Infow("failed to fetch URL",
// Structured context as loosely typed key-value pairs.
"url", url,
"attempt", 3,
"backoff", time.Second,
)
sugar.Infof("Failed to fetch URL: %s", url)
```
When performance and type safety are critical, use the `Logger`. It's even
faster than the `SugaredLogger` and allocates far less, but it only supports
structured logging.
```go
logger, _ := zap.NewProduction()
defer logger.Sync()
logger.Info("failed to fetch URL",
// Structured context as strongly typed Field values.
zap.String("url", url),
zap.Int("attempt", 3),
zap.Duration("backoff", time.Second),
)
```
See the [documentation][doc] and [FAQ](FAQ.md) for more details.
## Performance
For applications that log in the hot path, reflection-based serialization and
string formatting are prohibitively expensive — they're CPU-intensive
and make many small allocations. Put differently, using `encoding/json` and
`fmt.Fprintf` to log tons of `interface{}`s makes your application slow.
Zap takes a different approach. It includes a reflection-free, zero-allocation
JSON encoder, and the base `Logger` strives to avoid serialization overhead
and allocations wherever possible. By building the high-level `SugaredLogger`
on that foundation, zap lets users *choose* when they need to count every
allocation and when they'd prefer a more familiar, loosely typed API.
As measured by its own [benchmarking suite][], not only is zap more performant
than comparable structured logging packages — it's also faster than the
standard library. Like all benchmarks, take these with a grain of salt.<sup

Log a message and 10 fields:

| :------ | :--: | :-----------: | :---------------: |
| :zap: zap | 2900 ns/op | +0% | 5 allocs/op
| :zap: zap (sugared) | 3475 ns/op | +20% | 10 allocs/op
| zerolog | 10639 ns/op | +267% | 32 allocs/op
| go-kit | 14434 ns/op | +398% | 59 allocs/op

| log15 | 33579 ns/op | +1058% | 76 allocs/op
Log a message with a logger that already has 10 fields of context:
| Package | Time | Time % to zap | Objects Allocated |
| :------ | :--: | :-----------: | :---------------: |
| :zap: zap | 373 ns/op | +0% | 0 allocs/op
| :zap: zap (sugared) | 452 ns/op | +21% | 1 allocs/op
| zerolog | 288 ns/op | -23% | 0 allocs/op
| go-kit | 11785 ns/op | +3060% | 58 allocs/op
| logrus | 19629 ns/op | +5162% | 70 allocs/op
| log15 | 21866 ns/op | +5762% | 72 allocs/op
| apex/log | 30890 ns/op | +8182% | 55 allocs/op
Log a static string, without any context or `printf`-style templating:
| Package | Time | Time % to zap | Objects Allocated |
| :------ | :--: | :-----------: | :---------------: |
| :zap: zap | 381 ns/op | +0% | 0 allocs/op
| :zap: zap (sugared) | 410 ns/op | +8% | 1 allocs/op
| zerolog | 369 ns/op | -3% | 0 allocs/op
| standard library | 385 ns/op | +1% | 2 allocs/op
| go-kit | 606 ns/op | +59% | 11 allocs/op
| logrus | 1730 ns/op | +354% | 25 allocs/op
| apex/log | 1998 ns/op | +424% | 7 allocs/op
| log15 | 4546 ns/op | +1093% | 22 allocs/op
## Development Status: Stable
All APIs are finalized, and no breaking changes will be made in the 1.x series
of releases. Users of semver-aware dependency management systems should pin
zap to `^1`.
