Slog Derives

Custom derives for use with [slog] logging.

The KV Derive

Sometimes you'll want to log the struct's contents in your application, for example when you've just started and want to record the configuration details for debugging purposes. Usually you'd need to do something like this:

```rust

[macro_use]

extern crate slog; use std::path::PathBuf;

struct Config { width: f64, height: f64, url: String, }

let cfg = Config { ... };

debug!(logger, "Loaded Config"; "width" => cfg.width, "height" => cfg.height, "url" => cfg.url);

}

```

This is where the [KV] trait comes in. Implementing it lets you log a type as a bunch of key-value pairs, translating the previous log statement into something like this:

rust debug!(logger, "Loaded Config"; cfg);

This crate provides a custom derive which will implement [KV] for you. It'll just iterate over each field in your struct and invoke [Value::serialize()] on each. You can also use the #[slog(skip)] attribute to skip specific fields.

```rust

[derive(KV)]

pub struct Config { width: f64, height: f64, #[slog(skip)] url: String, } ```
