fluent-plugin-remote-syslog

fluentd plugin for streaming logs out to a remote syslog server or syslog SaaS service (like Papertrail)

#Available Plugins:

  • out_syslog: registers itself as "syslog", and is the non-buffered implementation, communicating through UDP
  • out_syslog_buffered: registers itself as "syslog_buffered", and is the buffered implementation, communicating through TCP

#Plugin Settings: Both plugins have the same configuration options:

  • remote_syslog: fqdn or ip of the remote syslog instance
  • port: the port, where the remote syslog instance is listening
  • hostname: hostname to be set for syslog messages
  • remove_tag_prefix: remove tag prefix for tag placeholder.
  • tag_key: use the field specified in tag_key from record to set the syslog key
  • facility: Syslog log facility
  • severity: Syslog log severity
  • use_record: Use severity and facility from record if available
  • payload_key: Use the field specified in payload_key from record to set payload

#Configuration example:

<match site.*>
  type syslog_buffered
  remote_syslog your.syslog.host
  port 25
  hostname ${hostname}
  facility local0
  severity debug
</match>
