Details

Return sink write errors from every handler (closes #22 )

The console and JSON handlers threw away the error from their write to
stdout, so a lost log line looked delivered. They now return it,
wrapped. The webhook handler also returns an error for a status outside
2xx, and no longer follows redirects, which could resend the request
without the record. The multiplex handler passes the record to every
handler and returns their errors joined with errors.Join instead of
stopping at the first.

Both stdout handlers gain an unexported writer, nil meaning os.Stdout at
write time, so tests can supply a sink that fails. The README says what
each handler returns and that the slog.Logger methods discard a
handler's error.

Status

1.0+

Tagged v1.0.0 (2024-06-14) and 1.0.1 (2026-02-08). In post-1.0 maintenance; the library is referenced by the Go styleguide.

Next Step

Bring the Makefile up to policy in one commit: add fmt-check, check, and hooks targets (test/lint/fmt/docker exist) and add the missing policy files it depends on: .golangci.yml, REPO_POLICIES.md, .editorconfig, .dockerignore, and .gitea/workflows/check.yml running make check.

Completed Steps

2026-10-06: every handler now returns a failed delivery from Handle instead of discarding it: console and JSON return the stdout write error, the webhook also fails on a non-2xx answer, and the multiplex delivers to every handler and returns their errors joined
2026-08-10: fixed every handler discarding slog attributes: console, JSON and webhook handlers now emit record attributes, accumulate WithAttrs without mutating the receiver, and honour WithGroup; slog.Group values nest and LogValuer values are resolved; console keys and values holding invalid UTF-8 are quoted
2026-08-07: added canonical .golangci.yml (v2 schema), pinned the Dockerfile lint stage to golangci-lint v2.12.2 (tag+digest), and fixed all findings the v1→v2 jump surfaced without changing any exported signatures or behavior

2026-07-07 Adopted scripts-to-rule-them-all: script/ entrypoints, Makefile shims, README Entrypoints section

2026-02-08: fixed JSONHandler deadlock from recursive log.Println, with regression test; tagged 1.0.1
2024-06-14: 1.0 prep: lint and fmt enforced in Docker build, call stack depth fix so log locations report correctly, example script, removed non-building RELP code; tagged v1.0.0
2024-05-22: module path moved to sneak.berlin/go/simplelog
2024-05-14: initial library: slog-based console, JSON, webhook, and RELP handlers, MultiplexHandler, caller file/line info, UTC ISO timestamps, level-colored output

Future Steps

Rewrite the Dockerfile to run make check with sha256-pinned base images (currently golangci/golangci-lint:latest and golang:1.22, unpinned, duplicating Makefile logic instead of calling it)
Restructure README.md into the standard sections: Description, Getting Started, Rationale, Design, TODO, License, Author
Delete the old plain TODO file once this TODO.md lands
Add .aider.* to .gitignore and remove the stray aider artifacts from the working tree
Pick one tag scheme before the next release (v1.0.0 vs 1.0.1 are inconsistent)
Tag v1.0.2, with the leading v, once the attribute fix lands, so consuming repos can move off pseudo-version pins in one step
Fix RELP output to cache (from old TODO)
Re-add RELP delivery over TCP to remote rsyslog imrelp; removed 2024-06-14 because it did not build (README planned feature)
Add regex filtering for webhook logs (from old TODO)
Better console output format (from old TODO)
