## Field
|
|
|
|
Create a single `Field` value from a key and value pair. This is the basic helper used throughout logger, patch, and filter APIs whenever structured metadata needs to be attached to a record.
|
|
|
|
### Interface
|
|
|
|
```moonbit
|
|
pub fn field(key : String, value : String) -> Field {}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### input
|
|
|
|
- `key : String` - Field key name.
|
|
- `value : String` - Field value text.
|
|
|
|
#### output
|
|
|
|
- `Field` - Structured field value ready to be used in a record or field array.
|
|
|
|
### Explanation
|
|
|
|
Detailed rules explaining key parameters and behaviors
|
|
|
|
- The helper constructs a `Field` directly from the provided key and value.
|
|
- No deduplication, normalization, or validation is applied.
|
|
- This is the standard primitive used by `fields(...)`, `append_fields(...)`, and all log write APIs that accept structured fields.
|
|
- The created field preserves the original input strings exactly.
|
|
|
|
### How to Use
|
|
|
|
Here are some specific examples provided.
|
|
|
|
#### When Add One Inline Event Field
|
|
|
|
When a single structured field is enough:
|
|
```moonbit
|
|
logger.info("accepted", fields=[field("user", "alice")])
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In this example, the event carries one explicit structured attribute.
|
|
|
|
#### When Build Shared Context Fields
|
|
|
|
When binding one reusable metadata field to a logger:
|
|
```moonbit
|
|
let logger = Logger::new(console_sink(), target="audit")
|
|
.bind([field("service", "billing")])
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In this example, the field becomes part of every later emitted record.
|
|
|
|
### Error Case
|
|
|
|
e.g.:
|
|
- If `key` is empty, the resulting field still exists and keeps the empty string key.
|
|
|
|
- If `value` is empty, the field remains valid and simply stores an empty string value.
|
|
|
|
### Notes
|
|
|
|
1. Use this helper when only one field is needed and tuple syntax would be less direct.
|
|
|
|
2. Prefer stable field keys so filters and downstream tooling remain predictable.
