Really F*cking Simple Logger

I wrote this package because I wanted an easy logger that would write out to files and move on to new files at a certain point so that I could safely store past logs. There are probably alternative solutions to this problem, and maybe they are better than writing my own package, but why not, right?

Basic Usage

First, install the package

go get github.com/mnrva-dev/rfsl/v2

Before using the logger, call rfsl.Config()

func main() {
    rfsl.Config("/var/logs/mylogs.txt", "", 500000000, rfsl.LOG_LVL_INFO) // 500MB log files
    ...

Then you can use the logger with the included functions

...
rfsl.Trace("This is a trace log!")
...
rfsl.Warningf("Something unexpected happened! Variable 'x' is %d.", x)
...
rfsl.Panic("Something very bad happened!")
...
rfsl.Fatal("A critical error! The program will shut down.")
...

mylogs.txt:
