Using log/slog with log.Logger format?

[cpu...@gmail.com]

The log/slog logger uses the log.Logger format by default. Implementation is internal.

In a gradual switch to slog I'd like to keep that format for time being but customize other handler options- hence need to create a new Logger. Is there a good way to do that without reimplementing the entire internal slog logic around commonHandler etc?

Cheers,

Andreas

Seems it's not possible to create a logger using the log.Logger format in a straight-forward way?

We don't plan on exposing the commonLogger implementation, but you can write your own handler to get the exact format you want.

See github.com/jba/slog/handlers for some existing code.

See https://github.com/golang/example/tree/master/slog-handler-guide for a guide to writing a slog handler.
