go-gelf - GELF library and writer for Go
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
GELF is graylog2's UDP logging format. This library provides an API
|
|
that applications can use to log messages directly to a graylog2
|
|
server, along with an `io.Writer` that can be use to redirect the
|
|
standard library's log messages (or `os.Stdout`), to a graylog2 server.
|
|
|
|
Installing
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
go-gelf is go get-able:
|
|
|
|
go get github.com/Graylog2/go-gelf/gelf
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to integrate graylog logging into your go app is by
|
|
having your `main` function (or even `init`) call `log.SetOutput()`.
|
|
By using an `io.MultiWriter`, we can log to both stdout and graylog -
|
|
giving us both centralized and local logs. (Redundancy is nice).
|
|
|
|
package main
|
|
|
|
import (
|
|
"flag"
|
|
"github.com/Graylog2/go-gelf/gelf"
|
|
"io"
|
|
"log"
|
|
"os"
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
func main() {
|
|
var graylogAddr string
|
|
|
|
flag.StringVar(&graylogAddr, "graylog", "", "graylog server addr")
|
|
flag.Parse()
|
|
|
|
if graylogAddr != "" {
|
|
gelfWriter, err := gelf.NewWriter(graylogAddr)
|
|
if err != nil {
|
|
log.Fatalf("gelf.NewWriter: %s", err)
|
|
}
|
|
// log to both stderr and graylog2
|
|
log.SetOutput(io.MultiWriter(os.Stderr, gelfWriter))
|
|
log.Printf("logging to stderr & graylog2@'%s'", graylogAddr)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// From here on out, any calls to log.Print* functions
|
|
// will appear on stdout, and be sent over UDP to the
|
|
// specified Graylog2 server.
|
|
|
|
log.Printf("Hello gray World")
|
|
|
|
// ...
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
The above program can be invoked as:
|
|
|
|
go run test.go -graylog=localhost:12201
|
|
|
|
Because GELF messages are sent over UDP, graylog server availability
|
|
doesn't impact application performance or response time. There is a
|
|
small, fixed overhead per log call, regardless of whether the target
|
|
server is reachable or not.
