urfave/cli VS logrus

Can you use a framework like urfavecli https://github.com/urfave/cli? This will auto-update every time it detects a new version from your CLI's GitHub repository

I use https://github.com/urfave/cli for local development over cli parameter inside docker over envs

urfave/cli - A simple, fast, and fun package for building command line apps in Go;

and probably something else will be added in the future. The final kind of launch command would like to see such djob [options] - command. Command is the command (with arguments to run). -- should separate the arguments of the utility from the arguments of the program to run. There are several excellent solutions for working with command-line arguments, such as spf13/cobra or urfave/cli. But they’re good for building an interface out of a lot of commands, and for one (as in my example) they’re redundant. So I used the flag library. I have defined the following structure with arguments:

There are alternatives available for Cobra as well i.e. mitchellh/cli, go-flags, urfave/cli etc.

It's some sort of logging system well explained by Alex Edwards in Let’s Go Further. As stated, we could have used logrus or any other popular logging system in Go.

Option 2, please. You may not have been around for the logrus debacle, but it was a giant pain.

For the example I’m using the very popular logrus library and then I’m setting the log formatter to be JSON

For choosing the candidates for the poll, I didn't do any thorough research. I was looking for a library to use in my project at work, and I ended up at sirupsen/logrus which was already being used by one of the dependencies in that project.

I contribute to OSS as part of my job on the regular. The company is good about contributing upstream, signing CLAs, and all that. We still work against private forks for two main reasons: 1. Some changes that we need are not accepted by maintainers based on philosophical or architectural reasons that we can’t otherwise work around. You’re beholden to then unless you publicly fork the repo which has other legal/PR overhead for the company and OSS political implications. 2. Maintainers in the past have taken down repos, renamed repos, or changed the licensing on repos that have left us in a lurch. We always build against our own private forks because we need predictability and can’t be beholden to some other party for business continuity. We sync them down from the public upstream at our leisure.

If they change the case on their username on the other hand, the Go ecosystem explodes: https://github.com/sirupsen/logrus/issues/570#issuecomment-3...

Like, for example, some projects importing logrus with a capital L and some with a lowercase L, and go modules having no way to reconcile the two: https://github.com/sirupsen/logrus/issues/553

Ugh. Wish people would stop using logrus. It’s in maintenance mode and slow, especially its stack tracing.
