Logrus is a structured logger for Go (golang), completely API compatible with
-the standard library logger. [Godoc][godoc]. **Please note the Logrus API is not
-yet stable (pre 1.0). Logrus itself is completely stable and has been used in
-many large deployments. The core API is unlikely to change much but please
-version control your Logrus to make sure you aren't fetching latest `master` on
-every build.**

+**Seeing weird case-sensitive problems?** It's in the past been possible to
+import Logrus as both upper- and lower-case. Due to the Go package environment,
+this caused issues in the community and we needed a standard. Some environments
+experienced problems with the upper-case variant, so the lower-case was decided.
Everything using `logrus` will need to use the lower-case:
`github.com/sirupsen/logrus`. Any package that isn't, should be changed.

+To ensure this behaviour even if a TTY is attached, set your formatter as follows:
+
+```go
+ log.SetFormatter(&log.TextFormatter{
+ DisableColors: true,
+ FullTimestamp: true,
+ })
```
+#### Logging Method Name
+
+If you wish to add the calling method as a field, instruct the logger via:
+```go
+log.SetReportCaller(true)
+```
+This adds the caller as 'method' like so:
+
+```json
+{"animal":"penguin","level":"fatal","method":"github.com/sirupsen/arcticcreatures.migrate","msg":"a penguin swims by",
+"time":"2014-03-10 19:57:38.562543129 -0400 EDT"}

+time="2015-03-26T01:27:38-04:00" level=fatal method=github.com/sirupsen/arcticcreatures.migrate msg="a penguin swims by" animal=penguin
+```
+Note that this does add measurable overhead - the cost will depend on the version of Go, but is
+between 20 and 40% in recent tests with 1.6 and 1.7. You can validate this in your
+environment via benchmarks:
+```
+go test -bench=.*CallerTracing
