Configure structured logging pipelines in Go using samber/slog libraries to produce scalable, policy-compliant logs. It demonstrates proper pipeline ordering with sampling outermost, correct use of Router vs Fanout, and graceful shutdown of batched sinks using Option{}.NewXxxHandler constructors.

Route Go slog logs to multiple backends like Sentry and Loki using the Router and Fanout components. Router handles first-match routing for specific conditions, while Fanout supports multi-predicate routing to send logs to multiple destinations simultaneously.

Add log sampling and filtering middleware in Go slog by composing 20+ slog.Handler packages. Ensure deterministic pipeline ordering by placing sampling outermost, then formatting, then routing to minimize wasted CPU and ensure sinks see clean data.

Yes, samber/slog pipelines support graceful shutdown for batched log sinks. The Skill demonstrates using the Option{}.NewXxxHandler constructors to properly configure and flush batched sinks during service shutdown.

Use Router for first-match routing when you need logs to go to a single destination based on predicates. Use Fanout for multi-predicate routing when logs must be sent to multiple destinations simultaneously across your structured logging pipeline.

Yes, you can integrate HTTP middleware with Go slog pipelines. The Skill provides HTTP middlewares and backend integration with versioned modules like slog-datadog, slog-loki, and slog-sentry for production-grade deployments.
