Hey team! ๐
I just released my first open-source Kotlin library and wanted to share it with you all!
kotlin-logging-extensions - Brings Lombok-style automatic logger generation to Kotlin using KSP ๐ง
The Problem: Coming from Java, I really missed
@Slf4j
annotationโs simplicity. In Kotlin, you either put loggers at the top-level (breaking โone class per fileโ) or declare them in every single class (lots of boilerplate).
The Solution: Just use
<http://log.info|log.info> { }
directly in any class - no declarations needed!
class UserService {
fun createUser() {
<http://log.info|log.info> { "Creating user" } // :sparkles: Works automatically!
}
}
How it works: Uses Kotlin Symbol Processing (KSP) to generate logger extensions at compile-time. Zero runtime overhead, integrates with kotlin-logging, and works with any package depth.

Still early stage (v0.0.1) but itโs already working well in my projects. Would love to hear your thoughts or feedback if anyone tries it out!
