# Decision: the console runs on charm's v2 stack, logging stays on stdlib slog
|
||||
|
||||
**Date:** 2026-10-21
|
||||
**Status:** Accepted
|
||||
**Context:** Phase 19.8 (console commands overhaul: D-01, D-02, D-05, D-08 and the CONTEXT discretion item on the console handler), 19.8-RESEARCH.md Standard Stack, Alternatives Considered, Package Legitimacy Audit and the probes quoted there
|
||||
|
||||
## Decision
|
||||
|
||||
The console layer (`modules/bonfire`) and the new logging module (`modules/diary`) adopt charm's v2 libraries on the `charm.land` vanity paths. Log routing itself stays on the standard library's `log/slog`.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Modules and versions.** All six were checked with `go list -m -versions` on 2026-10-21; each is the newest tag, so the research pins stand:
|
||||
- `charm.land/lipgloss/v2` v2.0.6: styles, layout and `lipgloss/v2/table` for list, help, errors, tables and log lines.
|
||||
- `charm.land/bubbletea/v2` v2.1.0: program runtime for the live spinner, process and progress views.
|
||||
- `charm.land/bubbles/v2` v2.2.1: `spinner` (MiniDot, the frames `bonfire` already draws), `progress` (the cyan-to-green bar), `key` and `help`.
|
||||
- `charm.land/huh/v2` v2.0.3: Ask, Confirm, Choice and Secret on an interactive terminal, with accessible mode.
|
||||
- `charm.land/fang/v2` v2.0.1: cobra error rendering hook and Windows VT enabling.
|
||||
- `github.com/charmbracelet/colorprofile` v0.4.3: imported directly for `colorprofile.Writer` and `colorprofile.Detect` (already a transitive dependency of all of the above).
|
||||
- **v2, not SSU's v1 pins.** SSU (`/media/nvme/dev/pxpx/ssu`) pins `github.com/charmbracelet/lipgloss` v1.0.0, `bubbletea` v1.3.0 and `bubbles` v0.20.0. fang v1 already depends on a `charm.land/lipgloss/v2` beta, so v1 widgets plus any fang would compile two lipgloss majors into every binary, and the v1 line is maintenance-only. SSU's widgets are ported with the v2 renames: `View()` returns `tea.View`, key events are `tea.KeyPressMsg`, the progress gradient is `progress.WithColors` / `WithDefaultBlend`, and widths are set with `SetWidth`.
|
||||
- **Who imports them.** Only `modules/bonfire` (all five charm libraries plus colorprofile) and `modules/diary` (lipgloss and colorprofile) import charm modules. Plugins and other framework modules reach them through `bonfire.Output` and `diary.For`, never directly.
|
||||
- **fang is used narrowly.** `fang.Execute` runs with `fang.WithoutVersion()` (its `-v`/`--version` would collide with the verbosity flags), `fang.WithoutManpage()` (it would add a hidden `man` command to the list and to duplicate checks), `fang.WithoutCompletions()`, and `fang.WithErrorHandler` set to bonfire's own error renderer. The help and list layouts are bonfire's own Artisan layouts (D-14); fang's help func never reaches subcommands because bonfire sets a help func on every command.
|
||||
- **Color is applied at the writer.** lipgloss v2 `Render` always emits ANSI, so `--ansi`, `--no-ansi`, `NO_COLOR`, `TERM=dumb` and `FORCE_COLOR` are applied through `colorprofile.Writer` with a profile that bonfire detects.
|
||||
- **The diary console handler is our own** lipgloss-styled `slog.Handler`. charm's slog logger module (`charm.land/log/v2` v2.0.1) is rejected: it fails `testing/slogtest` (`WithGroup` treated as a prefix, empty attributes printed, attributes of empty-key groups not inlined), and it brings its own level and prefix model that duplicates diary's component levels. This settles the CONTEXT discretion item.
|
||||
- **Daily files use a stdlib writer** of about 120 lines (one file per day, `name-YYYY-MM-DD.log`, retention by days, mode 0640). `gopkg.in/natefinch/lumberjack.v2`, which SSU uses, is rejected: it rotates by size, has no per-day naming, and would need its own note.
|
||||
- **Fan-out and GORM.** The `stack` driver is the standard library's `slog.NewMultiHandler` (Go 1.26+), and GORM logs through gorm's own `logger.NewSlogLogger` (already in gorm v1.31.2). No logging library is added.
|
||||
- **Cost.** The probe measured about +2.1 MB on a stripped binary (`-trimpath -s -w`): 2,527,495 bytes for cobra and x/term alone, 4,649,223 bytes with lipgloss/table, bubbletea, the bubbles spinner and progress, huh and fang.
|
||||
- **Toolchain fit.** The module go directives are at most 1.26 (lipgloss 1.25.0, bubbletea 1.26.0, bubbles 1.25.0, huh 1.25.8, fang 1.25.0) and fit this module's `go 1.27.0`. Minimal version selection keeps `github.com/spf13/cobra` v1.10.2, `github.com/spf13/pflag` v1.0.9 and `golang.org/x/text` v0.42.0 (fang asks for older cobra and pflag).
|
||||
- **YAML rule.** `gopkg.in/yaml.v3` enters the module graph only as testify's indirect test dependency of fang and huh. Nothing in this repository imports it; YAML stays on `goccy/go-yaml`.
|
||||
- **Package legitimacy.** The MSD package-legitimacy seam rejects the Go ecosystem, so the six modules were checked by hand against proxy.golang.org (`@latest`, `.mod`, `@v/list`) and the `charm.land` go-import meta tags, whose origins are `github.com/charmbracelet/*`. Verdict: approved. fang is young (two v2 tags, repository first tagged 2025-06-18), which is acceptable because it is used only for the error hook.
|
||||
- **Install order.** Plan 19.8-01 installs `charm.land/lipgloss/v2` and `github.com/charmbracelet/colorprofile` with the code that imports them (the palette and the diary console handler); plan 19.8-02 installs bubbletea, bubbles, huh and fang with the widgets. `go mod tidy` drops requirements that no package imports, so each plan adds only what it uses.
|
||||
|
||||
**Rejected alternatives.** SSU's v1 pins were rejected for the two-majors problem above. `charm.land/log/v2` was rejected for the slogtest failures and the duplicated level model. lumberjack was rejected because it rotates by size and names files differently. A hand-written fan-out handler (SSU's `MultiHandler`) was rejected in favour of `slog.NewMultiHandler`, which clones records, honours `Enabled` and joins errors.
|
||||
|
||||
## Related dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
- **Standard library only for logging:** `log/slog` (`NewMultiHandler`, `JSONHandler`, `TextHandler`, `DiscardHandler`, `LevelVar`), `testing/slogtest` for handler conformance tests, `os` and `path/filepath` for the daily writer.
|
||||
- **gorm.io/gorm** v1.31.2 (already required) for `logger.NewSlogLogger`.
|
||||
- **github.com/spf13/cobra** v1.10.2 (already required) stays the command parser under bonfire.
|
||||
|
||||
## Consequences
|
||||
|
||||
- Every application binary grows by about 2.1 MB once plan 19.8-02 lands the widgets.
|
||||
- Removing the stack later means rewriting bonfire's widgets and diary's console handler; D-01 and D-02 are rated costly for that reason.
|
||||
- Plugins never import charm modules directly, so a later change of styling library touches only `modules/bonfire` and `modules/diary`.
|
||||
- A check in the plan's acceptance criteria (`go list` over every package's imports) keeps the import boundary honest.
