# Logging Configuration
|
|
|
|
The logging configuration of Gitea mainly consists of 3 types of components:
|
|
|
|
- The `[log]` section for general configuration
|
|
- `[log.<sublogger>]` sections for the configuration of different log outputs
|
|
- `[log.<sublogger>.<group>]` sections for output specific configuration of a log group
|
|
|
|
As mentioned below, there is a fully functional log output by default, so it is not necessary to define one.

## Collecting Logs for Help
|
|
|
|
To collect logs for help and issue report, see [Support Options]({{< relref "doc/help/seek-help.en-us.md" >}}).
|
|
|
|
## The `[log]` section
|
|
|
|
Configuration of logging facilities in Gitea happen in the `[log]` section and it's subsections.
|
|
|
|
In the top level `[log]` section the following configurations can be placed:
|
|
|
|
- `ROOT_PATH`: (Default: **%(GITEA_WORK_DIR)/log**): Base path for log files
|
|
- `MODE`: (Default: **console**) List of log outputs to use for the Default logger.
|
|
- `ROUTER`: (Default: **console**): List of log outputs to use for the Router logger.
|
|
- `ACCESS`: List of log outputs to use for the Access logger.
|
|
- `XORM`: (Default: **,**) List of log outputs to use for the XORM logger.
|
|
- `ENABLE_ACCESS_LOG`: (Default: **false**): whether the Access logger is allowed to emit logs
|
|
- `ENABLE_XORM_LOG`: (Default: **true**): whether the XORM logger is allowed to emit logs
|
|
|
|
For details on the loggers check the "Log Groups" section.
|
|
Important: log outputs won't be used if you don't enable them for the desired loggers in the corresponding list value.
|
|
|
|
Lists are specified as comma separated values. This format also works in subsection.
|
|
|
|
This section may be used for defining default values for subsections.
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
- `LEVEL`: (Default: **Info**) Least severe log events to persist. Case insensitive. The full list of levels as of v1.17.3 can be read [here](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/v1.17.3/custom/conf/app.example.ini#L507).
|
|
- `STACKTRACE_LEVEL`: (Default: **None**) For this and more severe events the stacktrace will be printed upon getting logged.
|
|
|
|
Some values are not inherited by subsections. For details see the "Non-inherited default values" section.
|
|
|
|
## Log outputs
|
|
|
|
Log outputs are the targets to which log messages will be sent.
|
|
The content and the format of the log messages to be saved can be configured in these.
|
|
|
|
Log outputs are also called subloggers.
|
|
|
|
Gitea provides 4 possible log outputs:
|
|
|
|
- `console` - Log to `os.Stdout` or `os.Stderr`
|
|
- `file` - Log to a file
|
|
- `conn` - Log to a socket (network or unix)
|
|
- `smtp` - Log via email
|
|
|
|
By default, Gitea has a `console` output configured, which is used by the loggers as seen in the section "The log section" above.
|
|
|
|
### Common configuration
|
|
|
|
Certain configuration is common to all modes of log output:
|
|
|
|
- `MODE` is the mode of the log output. It will default to the sublogger
|
|
name, thus `[log.console.router]` will default to `MODE = console`.
|
|
For mode specific confgurations read further.
|
|
- `LEVEL` is the lowest level that this output will log. This value
|
|
is inherited from `[log]` and in the case of the non-default loggers
|
|
from `[log.sublogger]`.
|
|
- `STACKTRACE_LEVEL` is the lowest level that this output will print
|
|
a stacktrace. This value is inherited.
|
|
- `COLORIZE` will default to `true` for `console` as
|
|
described, otherwise it will default to `false`.
|
|
|
|
### Non-inherited default values
|
|
|
|
There are several values which are not inherited as described above but
|
|
rather default to those specific to type of logger, these are:
|
|
`EXPRESSION`, `FLAGS`, `PREFIX` and `FILE_NAME`.
|
|
|
|
#### `EXPRESSION`
|
|
|
|
`EXPRESSION` represents a regular expression that log events must match to be logged by the sublogger. Either the log message, (with colors removed), must match or the `longfilename:linenumber:functionname` must match. NB: the whole message or string doesn't need to completely match.
|
|
|
|
Please note this expression will be run in the sublogger's goroutine
|
|
not the logging event subroutine. Therefore it can be complicated.
|
|
|
|
#### `FLAGS`
|
|
|
|
`FLAGS` represents the preceding logging context information that is
|
|
printed before each message. It is a comma-separated string set. The order of values does not matter.
|
|
|
|
Possible values are:
|
|
|
|
- `none` or `,` - No flags.
|
|
- `date` - the date in the local time zone: `2009/01/23`.
|
|
- `time` - the time in the local time zone: `01:23:23`.
|
|
- `microseconds` - microsecond resolution: `01:23:23.123123`. Assumes
|
|
time.
|
|
- `longfile` - full file name and line number: `/a/b/c/d.go:23`.
|
|
- `shortfile` - final file name element and line number: `d.go:23`.
|
|
- `funcname` - function name of the caller: `runtime.Caller()`.
|
|
- `shortfuncname` - last part of the function name. Overrides
|
|
`funcname`.
|
|
- `utc` - if date or time is set, use UTC rather than the local time
|
|
zone.
|
|
- `levelinitial` - Initial character of the provided level in brackets eg. `[I]` for info.
|
|
- `level` - Provided level in brackets `[INFO]`
|
|
- `medfile` - Last 20 characters of the filename - equivalent to
|
|
`shortfile,longfile`.
|
|
- `stdflags` - Equivalent to `date,time,medfile,shortfuncname,levelinitial`
|
|
|
|
### Console mode
|
|
|
|
In this mode the logger will forward log messages to the stdout and
|
|
stderr streams attached to the Gitea process.
|
|
|
|
For loggers in console mode, `COLORIZE` will default to `true` if not
|
|
on windows, or the windows terminal can be set into ANSI mode or is a
|
|
cygwin or Msys pipe.
|
|
|
|
Settings:
|
|
|
|
- `STDERR`: **false**: Whether the logger should print to `stderr` instead of `stdout`.
|
|
|
|
### File mode
|
|
|
|
In this mode the logger will save log messages to a file.
|
|
|
|
Settings:
|
|
|
|
- `FILE_NAME`: The file to write the log events to. For details see below.
|
|
- `MAX_SIZE_SHIFT`: **28**: Maximum size shift of a single file. 28 represents 256Mb. For details see below.
|
|
- `LOG_ROTATE` **true**: Whether to rotate the log files. TODO: if false, will it delete instead on daily rotate, or do nothing?.
|
|
- `DAILY_ROTATE`: **true**: Whether to rotate logs daily.
|
|
- `MAX_DAYS`: **7**: Delete rotated log files after this number of days.
|
|
- `COMPRESS`: **true**: Whether to compress old log files by default with gzip.
|
|
- `COMPRESSION_LEVEL`: **-1**: Compression level. For details see below.
|
|
|
|
The default value of `FILE_NAME` depends on the respective logger facility.
|
|
If unset, their own default will be used.
|
|
If set it will be relative to the provided `ROOT_PATH` in the master `[log]` section.
|
|
|
|
`MAX_SIZE_SHIFT` defines the maximum size of a file by left shifting 1 the given number of times (`1 << x`).
|
|
The exact behavior at the time of v1.17.3 can be seen [here](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/v1.17.3/modules/setting/log.go#L185).
|
|
|
|
The useful values of `COMPRESSION_LEVEL` are from 1 to (and including) 9, where higher numbers mean better compression.
|
|
Beware that better compression might come with higher resource usage.
|
|
Must be preceded with a `-` sign.
|
|
|
|
### Conn mode
|
|
|
|
In this mode the logger will send log messages over a network socket.
|
|
|
|
Settings:
|
|
|
|
- `ADDR`: **:7020**: Sets the address to connect to.
|
|
- `PROTOCOL`: **tcp**: Set the protocol, either "tcp", "unix" or "udp".
|
|
- `RECONNECT`: **false**: Try to reconnect when connection is lost.
|
|
- `RECONNECT_ON_MSG`: **false**: Reconnect host for every single message.
|
|
|
|
### SMTP mode
|
|
|
|
In this mode the logger will send log messages in email.
|
|
|
|
It is not recommended to use this logger to send general logging
|
|
messages. However, you could perhaps set this logger to work on `FATAL` messages only.
|
|
|
|
Settings:
|
|
|
|
- `HOST`: **127.0.0.1:25**: The SMTP host to connect to.
|
|
- `USER`: User email address to send from.
|
|
- `PASSWD`: Password for the smtp server.
|
|
- `RECEIVERS`: Email addresses to send to.
|
|
- `SUBJECT`: **Diagnostic message from Gitea**. The content of the email's subject field.
|
|
|
|
## Log Groups
|
|
|
|
The fundamental thing to be aware of in Gitea is that there are several
|
|
log groups:
|
|
|
|
- The "Default" logger
|
|
- The Router logger
|
|
- The Access logger
|
|
- The XORM logger
|
|
|
|
There is also the go log logger.
|
|
|
|
### The go log logger
|
|
|
|
Go provides its own extremely basic logger in the `log` package,
|
|
however, this is not sufficient for our purposes as it does not provide
|
|
a way of logging at multiple levels, nor does it provide a good way of
|
|
controlling where these logs are logged except through setting of a
|
|
writer.
|
|
|
|
We have therefore redirected this logger to our Default logger, and we
|
|
will log anything that is logged using the go logger at the INFO level.
|
|
|
|
### The "Default" logger
|
|
|
|
Calls to `log.Info`, `log.Debug`, `log.Error` etc. from the `code.gitea.io/gitea/modules/log` package will log to this logger.
|
|
|
|
You can configure the outputs of this logger by setting the `MODE`
|
|
value in the `[log]` section of the configuration.
|
|
|
|
Each output sublogger is configured in a separate `[log.sublogger.default]`
|
|
which inherits from the sublogger `[log.sublogger]` section and from the
|
|
generic `[log]` section, but there are certain default values. These will
|
|
not be inherited from the `[log]` section:
|
|
|
|
- `FLAGS` is `stdflags` (Equal to
|
|
`date,time,medfile,shortfuncname,levelinitial`)
|
|
- `FILE_NAME` will default to `%(ROOT_PATH)/gitea.log`
|
|
- `EXPRESSION` will default to `""`
|
|
- `PREFIX` will default to `""`
|
|
|
|
The provider type of the sublogger can be set using the `MODE` value in
|
|
its subsection, but will default to the name. This allows you to have
|
|
multiple subloggers that will log to files.
|
|
|
|
### The "Router" logger
|
|
|
|
The Router logger has been substantially changed in v1.17. If you are using the router logger for fail2ban or other monitoring
|
|
you will need to update this configuration.
|
|
|
|
You can disable Router log by setting `DISABLE_ROUTER_LOG` or by setting all of its sublogger configurations to `none`.
|
|
|
|
You can configure the outputs of this
|
|
router log by setting the `ROUTER` value in the `[log]` section of the
|
|
configuration. `ROUTER` will default to `console` if unset and will default to same level as main logger.
|
|
|
|
The Router logger logs the following:
|
|
|
|
- `started` messages will be logged at TRACE level
|
|
- `polling`/`completed` routers will be logged at INFO
|
|
- `slow` routers will be logged at WARN
|
|
- `failed` routers will be logged at WARN
|
|
|
|
The logging level for the router will default to that of the main configuration. Set `[log.<mode>.router]` `LEVEL` to change this.
|
|
|
|
Each output sublogger for this logger is configured in
|
|
`[log.sublogger.router]` sections. There are certain default values
|
|
which will not be inherited from the `[log]` or relevant
|
|
`[log.sublogger]` sections:
|
|
|
|
- `FILE_NAME` will default to `%(ROOT_PATH)/router.log`
|
|
- `FLAGS` defaults to `date,time`
|
|
- `EXPRESSION` will default to `""`
|
|
- `PREFIX` will default to `""`
|
|
|
|
NB: You can redirect the router logger to send its events to the Gitea
|
|
log using the value: `ROUTER = ,`
|
|
|
|
### The "Access" logger
|
|
|
|
The Access logger is a new logger for version 1.9. It provides a NCSA
|
|
Common Log compliant log format. It's highly configurable but caution
|
|
should be taken when changing its template. The main benefit of this
|
|
logger is that Gitea can now log accesses in a standard log format so
|
|
standard tools may be used.
|
|
|
|
You can enable this logger using `ENABLE_ACCESS_LOG`. Its outputs are
|
|
configured by setting the `ACCESS` value in the `[log]` section of the
|
|
configuration. `ACCESS` defaults to `file` if unset.
|
|
|
|
Each output sublogger for this logger is configured in
|
|
`[log.sublogger.access]` sections. There are certain default values
|
|
which will not be inherited from the `[log]` or relevant
|
|
`[log.sublogger]` sections:
|
|
|
|
- `FILE_NAME` will default to `%(ROOT_PATH)/access.log`
|
|
- `FLAGS` defaults to `` or None
|
|
- `EXPRESSION` will default to `""`
|
|
- `PREFIX` will default to `""`
|
|
|
|
If desired the format of the Access logger can be changed by changing
|
|
the value of the `ACCESS_LOG_TEMPLATE`.
|
|
|
|
Please note, the access logger will log at `INFO` level, setting the
|
|
`LEVEL` of this logger to `WARN` or above will result in no access logs.
|
|
|
|
NB: You can redirect the access logger to send its events to the Gitea
|
|
log using the value: `ACCESS = ,`
|
|
|
|
#### The ACCESS_LOG_TEMPLATE
|
|
|
|
This value represent a go template. It's default value is:
|
|
|
|
`{{.Ctx.RemoteAddr}} - {{.Identity}} {{.Start.Format "[02/Jan/2006:15:04:05 -0700]" }} "{{.Ctx.Req.Method}} {{.Ctx.Req.URL.RequestURI}} {{.Ctx.Req.Proto}}" {{.ResponseWriter.Status}} {{.ResponseWriter.Size}} "{{.Ctx.Req.Referer}}\" \"{{.Ctx.Req.UserAgent}}"`
|
|
|
|
The template is passed following options:
|
|
|
|
- `Ctx` is the `context.Context`
|
|
- `Identity` is the `SignedUserName` or `"-"` if the user is not logged
|
|
in
|
|
- `Start` is the start time of the request
|
|
- `ResponseWriter` is the `http.ResponseWriter`
|
|
|
|
Caution must be taken when changing this template as it runs outside of
|
|
the standard panic recovery trap. The template should also be as simple
|
|
as it runs for every request.
|
|
|
|
### The "XORM" logger
|
|
|
|
The XORM logger is a long-standing logger that exists to collect XORM
|
|
log events. It is enabled by default but can be switched off by setting
|
|
`ENABLE_XORM_LOG` to `false` in the `[log]` section. Its outputs are
|
|
configured by setting the `XORM` value in the `[log]` section of the
|
|
configuration. `XORM` defaults to `,` if unset, meaning it is redirected
|
|
to the main Gitea log.
|
|
|
|
XORM will log SQL events by default. This can be changed by setting
|
|
the `LOG_SQL` value to `false` in the `[database]` section.
|
|
|
|
Each output sublogger for this logger is configured in
|
|
`[log.sublogger.xorm]` sections. There are certain default values
|
|
which will not be inherited from the `[log]` or relevant
|
|
`[log.sublogger]` sections:
|
|
|
|
- `FILE_NAME` will default to `%(ROOT_PATH)/xorm.log`
|
|
- `FLAGS` defaults to `date,time`
|
|
- `EXPRESSION` will default to `""`
|
|
- `PREFIX` will default to `""`
|
|
|
|
## Debugging problems
|
|
|
|
When submitting logs in Gitea issues it is often helpful to submit
|
|
merged logs obtained by either by redirecting the console log to a file or
|
|
copying and pasting it. To that end it is recommended to set your logging to:
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
[database]
|
|
LOG_SQL = false ; SQL logs are rarely helpful unless we specifically ask for them
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
[log]
|
|
MODE = console
|
|
LEVEL = debug ; please set the level to debug when we are debugging a problem
|
|
ROUTER = console
|
|
COLORIZE = false ; this can be true if you can strip out the ansi coloring
|
|
ENABLE_SSH_LOG = true ; shows logs related to git over SSH.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Sometimes it will be helpful get some specific `TRACE` level logging restricted
|
|
to messages that match a specific `EXPRESSION`. Adjusting the `MODE` in the
|
|
`[log]` section to `MODE = console,traceconsole` to add a new logger output
|
|
`traceconsole` and then adding its corresponding section would be helpful:
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
[log.traceconsole] ; traceconsole here is just a name
|
|
MODE = console ; this is the output that the traceconsole writes to
|
|
LEVEL = trace
|
|
EXPRESSION = ; putting a string here will restrict this logger to logging only those messages that match this expression
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
(It's worth noting that log messages that match the expression at or above debug
|
|
level will get logged twice so don't worry about that.)
|
|
|
|
`STACKTRACE_LEVEL` should generally be left unconfigured (and hence kept at
|
|
`none`). There are only very specific occasions when it useful.
|
|
|
|
## Empty Configuration
|
|
|
|
The empty configuration is equivalent to:
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
[log]
|
|
ROOT_PATH = %(GITEA_WORK_DIR)/log
|
|
MODE = console
|
|
LEVEL = Info
|
|
STACKTRACE_LEVEL = None
|
|
ENABLE_ACCESS_LOG = false
|
|
ENABLE_XORM_LOG = true
|
|
XORM = ,
|
|
|
|
[log.console]
|
|
MODE = console
|
|
LEVEL = %(LEVEL)
|
|
STACKTRACE_LEVEL = %(STACKTRACE_LEVEL)
|
|
FLAGS = stdflags
|
|
PREFIX =
|
|
COLORIZE = true # Or false if your windows terminal cannot color
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This is equivalent to sending all logs to the console, with default go log being sent to the console log too.
|
|
|
|
## Releasing-and-Reopening, Pausing and Resuming logging
|
|
|
|
If you are running on Unix you may wish to release-and-reopen logs in order to use `logrotate` or other tools.
|
|
It is possible force Gitea to release and reopen it's logging files and connections by sending `SIGUSR1` to the
|
|
running process, or running `gitea manager logging release-and-reopen`.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you may wish to pause and resume logging - this can be accomplished through the use of the
|
|
`gitea manager logging pause` and `gitea manager logging resume` commands. Please note that whilst logging
|
|
is paused log events below INFO level will not be stored and only a limited number of events will be stored.
|
|
Logging may block, albeit temporarily, slowing Gitea considerably whilst paused - therefore it is
|
|
recommended that pausing only done for a very short period of time.
|
|
|
|
## Adding and removing logging whilst Gitea is running
|
|
|
|
It is possible to add and remove logging whilst Gitea is running using the `gitea manager logging add` and `remove` subcommands.
|
|
This functionality can only adjust running log systems and cannot be used to start the access or router loggers if they
|
|
were not already initialized. If you wish to start these systems you are advised to adjust the app.ini and (gracefully) restart
|
|
the Gitea service.
|
|
|
|
The main intention of these commands is to easily add a temporary logger to investigate problems on running systems where a restart
|
|
may cause the issue to disappear.
|
|
|
|
## Log colorization
|
|
|
|
Logs to the console will be colorized by default when not running on
|
|
Windows. Terminal sniffing will occur on Windows and if it is
|
|
determined that we are running on a terminal capable of color we will
|
|
colorize.
|
|
|
|
Further, on \*nix it is becoming common to have file logs that are
|
|
colored by default. Therefore file logs will be colorised by default
|
|
when not running on Windows.
|
|
|
|
You can switch on or off colorization by using the `COLORIZE` value.
|
|
|
|
From a development point of view. If you write
|
|
`log.Info("A %s string", "formatted")` the `formatted` part of the log
|
|
message will be Bolded on colorized logs.
|
|
|
|
You can change this by either rendering the formatted string yourself.
|
|
Or you can wrap the value in a `log.ColoredValue` struct.
|
|
|
|
The `log.ColoredValue` struct contains a pointer to value, a pointer to
|
|
string of bytes which should represent a color and second set of reset
|
|
bytes. Pointers were chosen to prevent copying of large numbers of
|
|
values. There are several helper methods:
|
|
|
|
- `log.NewColoredValue` takes a value and 0 or more color attributes
|
|
that represent the color. If 0 are provided it will default to a cached
|
|
bold. Note, it is recommended that color bytes constructed from
|
|
attributes should be cached if this is a commonly used log message.
|
|
- `log.NewColoredValuePointer` takes a pointer to a value, and
|
|
0 or more color attributes that represent the color.
|
|
- `log.NewColoredValueBytes` takes a value and a pointer to an array
|
|
of bytes representing the color.
|
|
|
|
These functions will not double wrap a `log.ColoredValue`. They will
|
|
also set the `resetBytes` to the cached `resetBytes`.
|
|
|
|
The `colorBytes` and `resetBytes` are not exported to prevent
|
|
accidental overwriting of internal values.
|
|
|
|
## ColorFormat & ColorFormatted
|
|

Structs may implement the `log.ColorFormatted` interface by implementing the `ColorFormat(fmt.State)` function.
|
|
|
|
If a `log.ColorFormatted` struct is logged with `%-v` format, its `ColorFormat` will be used instead of the usual `%v`. The full `fmt.State` will be passed to allow implementers to look at additional flags.
|
|
|
|
In order to help implementers provide `ColorFormat` methods. There is a
|
|
`log.ColorFprintf(...)` function in the log module that will wrap values in `log.ColoredValue` and recognise `%-v`.
|
|
|
|
In general it is recommended not to make the results of this function too verbose to help increase its versatility. Usually this should simply be an `ID`:`Name`. If you wish to make a more verbose result, it is recommended to use `%-+v` as your marker.

## Log Spoofing protection
|
|
|
|
In order to protect the logs from being spoofed with cleverly
|
|
constructed messages. Newlines are now prefixed with a tab and control
|
|
characters except those used in an ANSI CSI are escaped with a
|
|
preceding `\` and their octal value.
|
|
|
|
## Creating a new named logger group
|
|
|
|
Should a developer wish to create a new named logger, `NEWONE`. It is
|
|
recommended to add an `ENABLE_NEWONE_LOG` value to the `[log]`
|
|
section, and to add a new `NEWONE` value for the modes.
|
|
|
|
A function like `func newNewOneLogService()` is recommended to manage
|
|
construction of the named logger. e.g.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
func newNewoneLogService() {
|
|
EnableNewoneLog = Cfg.Section("log").Key("ENABLE_NEWONE_LOG").MustBool(false)
|
|
Cfg.Section("log").Key("NEWONE").MustString("file") // or console? or "," if you want to send this to default logger by default
|
|
if EnableNewoneLog {
|
|
options := newDefaultLogOptions()
|
|
options.filename = filepath.Join(LogRootPath, "newone.log")
|
|
options.flags = "stdflags"
|
|
options.bufferLength = Cfg.Section("log").Key("BUFFER_LEN").MustInt64(10000)
|
|
generateNamedLogger("newone", options)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You should then add `newOneLogService` to `NewServices()` in
|
|
`modules/setting/setting.go`
|
|
|
|
## Using `logrotate` instead of built-in log rotation
|
|
|
|
Gitea includes built-in log rotation, which should be enough for most deployments. However, if you instead want to use the `logrotate` utility:
|
|
|
|
- Disable built-in log rotation by setting `LOG_ROTATE` to `false` in your `app.ini`.
|
|
- Install `logrotate`.
|
|
- Configure `logrotate` to match your deployment requirements, see `man 8 logrotate` for configuration syntax details. In the `postrotate/endscript` block send Gitea a `USR1` signal via `kill -USR1` or `kill -10` to the `gitea` process itself, or run `gitea manager logging release-and-reopen` (with the appropriate environment). Ensure that your configurations apply to all files emitted by Gitea loggers as described in the above sections.
|
|
- Always do `logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf --debug` to test your configurations.
|
|
- If you are using docker and are running from outside of the container you can use `docker exec -u $OS_USER $CONTAINER_NAME sh -c 'gitea manager logging release-and-reopen'` or `docker exec $CONTAINER_NAME sh -c '/bin/s6-svc -1 /etc/s6/gitea/'` or send `USR1` directly to the Gitea process itself.
|
|
|
|
The next `logrotate` jobs will include your configurations, so no restart is needed. You can also immediately reload `logrotate` with `logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf --force`.
