// Package zap provides fast, structured, leveled logging.
//
// For applications that log in the hot path, reflection-based serialization
// and string formatting are prohibitively expensive - they're CPU-intensive
// and make many small allocations. Put differently, using json.Marshal and
// fmt.Fprintf to log tons of interface{} makes your application slow.
//
// Zap takes a different approach. It includes a reflection-free,
// zero-allocation JSON encoder, and the base Logger strives to avoid
// serialization overhead and allocations wherever possible. By building the
// high-level SugaredLogger on that foundation, zap lets users choose when
// they need to count every allocation and when they'd prefer a more familiar,
// loosely typed API.
//
// Choosing a Logger
//
// In contexts where performance is nice, but not critical, use the
// SugaredLogger. It's 4-10x faster than other structured logging packages and
// supports both structured and printf-style logging. Like log15 and go-kit,
// the SugaredLogger's structured logging APIs are loosely typed and accept a
// variadic number of key-value pairs. (For more advanced use cases, they also
// accept strongly typed fields - see the SugaredLogger.With documentation for
// details.)
//  sugar := zap.NewExample().Sugar()
//  defer sugar.Sync()
//  sugar.Infow("failed to fetch URL",
//    "url", "http://example.com",
//    "attempt", 3,
//    "backoff", time.Second,
//  )
//  sugar.Printf("failed to fetch URL: %s", "http://example.com")
//
// By default, loggers are unbuffered. However, since zap's low-level APIs
// allow buffering, calling Sync before letting your process exit is a good
// habit.
//
// In the rare contexts where every microsecond and every allocation matter,
// use the Logger. It's even faster than the SugaredLogger and allocates far
// less, but it only supports strongly-typed, structured logging.
//  logger := zap.NewExample()
//  defer logger.Sync()
//  logger.Info("failed to fetch URL",
//    zap.String("url", "http://example.com"),
//    zap.Int("attempt", 3),
//    zap.Duration("backoff", time.Second),
//  )
//
// Choosing between the Logger and SugaredLogger doesn't need to be an
// application-wide decision: converting between the two is simple and
// inexpensive.
//   logger := zap.NewExample()
//   defer logger.Sync()
//   sugar := logger.Sugar()
//   plain := sugar.Desugar()
//
// Configuring Zap
//
// The simplest way to build a Logger is to use zap's opinionated presets:
// NewExample, NewProduction, and NewDevelopment. These presets build a logger
// with a single function call:
//  logger, err := zap.NewProduction()
//  if err != nil {
//    log.Fatalf("can't initialize zap logger: %v", err)
//  }
//  defer logger.Sync()
//
// Presets are fine for small projects, but larger projects and organizations
// naturally require a bit more customization. For most users, zap's Config
// struct strikes the right balance between flexibility and convenience. See
// the package-level BasicConfiguration example for sample code.
//
// More unusual configurations (splitting output between files, sending logs
// to a message queue, etc.) are possible, but require direct use of
// github.com/finogeeks/dendrite/skunkworks/zap/zapcore. See the package-level AdvancedConfiguration
// example for sample code.
//
// Extending Zap
//
// The zap package itself is a relatively thin wrapper around the interfaces
// in github.com/finogeeks/dendrite/skunkworks/zap/zapcore. Extending zap to support a new encoding (e.g.,
// BSON), a new log sink (e.g., Kafka), or something more exotic (perhaps an
// exception aggregation service, like Sentry or Rollbar) typically requires
// implementing the zapcore.Encoder, zapcore.WriteSyncer, or zapcore.Core
// interfaces. See the zapcore documentation for details.
//
// Similarly, package authors can use the high-performance Encoder and Core
// implementations in the zapcore package to build their own loggers.
