Beautiful, colorful HTTP request logs in Go-style format for FastAPI applications

FastAPI Colorful Logging Middleware

A beautiful, colorful HTTP request logging middleware for FastAPI applications that provides Go-style formatted logs. The middleware automatically captures and logs detailed information about each incoming request, including timing, client IP, HTTP method, and response status with color-coded output.

The middleware extracts client IP addresses from various sources including direct client connection, X-Forwarded-For, and X-Real-IP headers by default. Request duration is automatically calculated and displayed in the most appropriate unit (microseconds, milliseconds, or seconds) for optimal readability.

Installation

Install the package using pip:

pip install fastapi-logging-middleware

Quick Start

Method 1: Using add_middleware (Recommended)

from fastapi import FastAPI
from logging_middleware import GoStyleLoggingMiddleware

app = FastAPI()

# Add the middleware
app.add_middleware(GoStyleLoggingMiddleware)

@app.get("/")
async def root():
    return {"message": "Hello World"}

Method 2: Using middleware parameter in FastAPI

from fastapi import FastAPI
from starlette.middleware import Middleware
from logging_middleware import GoStyleLoggingMiddleware

# Add middleware during app creation
app = FastAPI(
    middleware=[
        Middleware(GoStyleLoggingMiddleware)
    ]
)

@app.get("/")
async def root():
    return {"message": "Hello World"}

Example Output

Log Format

The middleware outputs logs in the following format:
