A minimalistic adapter for github.com/gliderlabs/logspout to write to Logstash TCP. Supports
- multi-line log grouping
- udacity metadata
Log lines identified as JSON preserve the app-specific fields when shipped to Logstash.
Follow the instructions in https://github.com/gliderlabs/logspout/tree/master/custom on how to build your own Logspout container with custom modules. Basically just copy the contents of the custom folder and include:
import (
_ "github.com/udacity/logspout-logstash"
_ "github.com/gliderlabs/logspout/transports/udp"
)
in modules.go.
Use by setting ROUTE_URIS=logstash://host:port to the Logstash host and port for TCP.
In your logstash config, set the input codec to json e.g:
input {
tcp {
port => 5000
codec => json
}
}
