Client IDs in logs should be at the beginning
Now the logs look like this:
time="2019-08-06T23:20:53+03:00" level=debug msg="[0.0.0.0:25] Waiting for a new client. Next Client ID: 1"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:26+03:00" level=debug msg="[0.0.0.0:25] Waiting for a new client. Next Client ID: 2"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:26+03:00" level=info msg="Handle client [127.0.0.1], id: 1"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:26+03:00" level=debug msg="Writing response to client: \n220 example.com SMTP #1 (1) 2019-08-06T23:21:26+03:00\r\n"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:26+03:00" level=debug msg="Client sent: EHLO localhost"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:26+03:00" level=debug msg="Writing response to client: \n250-example.com Hello\r\n250-SIZE 3145728\r\n250-PIPELINING\r\n250-STARTTLS\r\n250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES\r\n250 HELP\r\n"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:26+03:00" level=debug msg="Client sent: QUIT"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:26+03:00" level=debug msg="Writing response to client: \n221 2.0.0 Bye\r\n"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00" level=debug msg="[0.0.0.0:25] Waiting for a new client. Next Client ID: 3"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00" level=info msg="Handle client [127.0.0.1], id: 2"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00" level=debug msg="Writing response to client: \n220 example.com SMTP #2 (1) 2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00\r\n"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00" level=debug msg="Client sent: EHLO localhost"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00" level=debug msg="Writing response to client: \n250-example.com Hello\r\n250-SIZE 3145728\r\n250-PIPELINING\r\n250-STARTTLS\r\n250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES\r\n250 HELP\r\n"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00" level=debug msg="Client sent: QUIT"
time="2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00" level=debug msg="Writing response to client: \n221 2.0.0 Bye\r\n"
And there is no way to make grep to get the delivery progress of a specific letter.
For example, in postfix logs looks like:

The numbers in square brackets are the process id and hases like "07C82250E8" - it is mail identifier. On them you can track the entire process of delivery.
I think it would be nice to do the same. For example, before level= add a client number / mail identifier.
I can hardly do this, but if there is a simple way to hack the log, please tell about it.
Thanks. Understand. Would need to add this to the list of things to do in the Logger refortor here: https://github.com/flashmob/go-guerrilla/pull/116
Yes, that would be great! But judging by the code that is now there in PR, I don’t know how I can help. Is there any way to make this easier?
And I think that words like time=, level= and msg= are not needed on every line.
Now it looks like this:
time="2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00" level=debug msg="Client sent: QUIT"
But it would be prettier like this:
2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00 debug: Client sent: QUIT
This is 18 characters less for each line.
And if you fantasize how it should look with mail identifiers, it would be better if it were like this:
2019-08-06T23:21:56+03:00 debug[8DF372]: Client sent: QUIT
8DF372 - is mail ID (not complete, because it's probably not necessary here)
