Injects a named component identity into a context.Context at library boundaries
Propagates module identity and component hierarchy across layers
Implements slog.LogValuer for use as a structured log attribute, and provides a string map for generic consumers

What this library does not do

go-mana-component does not log, does not define what a module or component means semantically, and does not manage component lifecycles or dependencies. It only carries identity. Interpretation, enforcement of naming conventions, metrics, and tracing instrumentation all belong elsewhere.

Installation

go get git.wisehodl.dev/jay/go-mana-component

If the primary repository is unavailable, use the replace directive in your go.mod:

replace git.wisehodl.dev/jay/go-mana-component => github.com/wisehodl/go-mana-component latest

Usage

As an example, the go-honeybee library uses a three-layer component hierarchy for pools, workers, and connections. To provide structured logging, each component accepts a component-aware context and an slog.Handler and then constructs a logger internally.

At a library boundary

A top-level constructor receives a context and creates a new component identity. Passing the component as a slog.Any group attribute allows the logger to carry module and path automatically.

func NewPool(ctx context.Context, id string, handler slog.Handler) (*Pool, error) {
    ctx = component.MustNew(ctx, "honeybee", "outbound_pool")

    c, _ := component.Get(ctx)
    logger := slog.New(handler).With(slog.Any("component", c), slog.String("pool_id", id))

    return &Pool{ctx: ctx, logger: logger}, nil
}

Descending into a sub-component

A child constructor calls MustExtend, inheriting the module and extending the path. No parent identifiers need to be passed as arguments.

func NewWorker(ctx context.Context, id string, handler slog.Handler) (*Worker, error) {
    ctx = component.MustExtend(ctx, "outbound_worker")

    c, _ := component.Get(ctx)
    logger := slog.New(handler).With(slog.Any("component", c), slog.Any("peer_id", id))

    return &Worker{ctx: ctx, logger: logger}, nil
}

At the connection layer, another MustExtend call extends the path to outbound_pool.outbound_worker.connection with no additional plumbing.

GetFields provides the component fields as a map[string]string for non-slog consumers.
