# Aider chat conversation:
USER: use an appropriate third party module to select a platform specific directory instead of /var/cache so that our module works on macos as well
ASSISTANT: To make the module work on macOS as well, we can use the `os.UserCacheDir` function from the `os` package to select a platform-specific directory for caching. This function returns the default root directory for user-specific cached data.
Here are the changes needed:
1. Import the `os` package.
2. Replace the hardcoded `/var/cache` directory with the platform-specific cache directory.
Let's update the `relp_handler.go` file accordingly:
relp_handler.go
```go
<<<<<<< SEARCH
"path/filepath"
=======
"os"
"path/filepath"
>>>>>>> REPLACE
```
relp_handler.go
```go
<<<<<<< SEARCH
cacheDir = os.Getenv("LOGGER_CACHE_DIR")
=======
cacheDir, _ = os.UserCacheDir()
>>>>>>> REPLACE
```
relp_handler.go
```go
<<<<<<< SEARCH
if err := os.MkdirAll(cacheDir, 0755); err != nil {
=======
if err := os.MkdirAll(filepath.Join(cacheDir, "simplelog"), 0755); err != nil {
>>>>>>> REPLACE
```
relp_handler.go
```go
<<<<<<< SEARCH
fileName := filepath.Join(cacheDir, uuid.New().String()+".logevent")
=======
fileName := filepath.Join(cacheDir, "simplelog", uuid.New().String()+".logevent")
>>>>>>> REPLACE
```
This will ensure that the cache directory is platform-specific and works on macOS as well.

simplelog
simplelog is an opinionated logging package designed to facilitate easy and structured logging in Go applications with an absolute minimum of boilerplate.
The idea is that you can add a single import line which replaces the
stdlib log/slog default handler, and solve the 90% case for logging.
Features
- if output is a tty, outputs pretty color logs
- if output is not a tty, outputs json
- supports delivering logs via tcp RELP (e.g. to remote rsyslog using imrelp)
- supports delivering each log message via a webhook
Installation
To use simplelog, first ensure your project is set up with Go modules:
go mod init your_project_name
Then, add SimpleLog to your project:
go get git.eeqj.de/sneak/go-simplelog
Usage
Below is an example of how to use SimpleLog in a Go application. This example is provided in the form of a main.go file, which demonstrates logging at various levels using structured logging syntax.
package main
import (
"log/slog"
_ "git.eeqj.de/sneak/go-simplelog"
)
func main() {
// log structured data with slog as usual:
slog.Info("User login attempt", slog.String("user", "JohnDoe"), slog.Int("attempt", 3))
slog.Warn("Configuration mismatch", slog.String("expected", "config.json"), slog.String("found", "config.dev.json"))
slog.Error("Failed to save data", slog.String("reason", "permission denied"))
}
