How to create and use custom loggers for different parts of a Go application?

To create and use custom loggers for different parts of a Go application, you can follow these steps:

Import the "log" package: Start by importing the built-in "log" package in your Go file. This package provides the basic log functionality.

import "log"

Create a custom logger: Declare a new "Logger" variable using the "log.New" function. You can provide your custom options for the logger, such as the prefix and flags.

customLogger := log.New(w io.Writer, prefix string, flags int)

The "w" parameter specifies where the log output should be written. You can provide any writer, such as "os.Stdout" or "os.Stderr". The "prefix" parameter sets a custom prefix for the log output, and the "flags" parameter sets the formatting options for the logger.

Use the custom logger: Once you have created the custom logger, you can use it throughout your code. Simply call the methods provided by the logger, such as "Println" or "Printf", to log messages.

customLogger.Println("This is a custom log message")

You can call the logger methods with specific log levels based on the importance of the message. For example, you can use "Printf" for formatted logging or "Fatalf" for fatal errors.

By creating multiple custom loggers and assigning them to different parts of your application, you can organize and control the logs generated by each component or module.

Note: You can also use external logging libraries like "logrus" or "zap" to further enhance your logging capabilities in Go. These libraries provide more advanced features and options.
