Use this hook to send your logs to Graylog server over UDP.
The hook is non-blocking: even if UDP is used to send messages, the extra work
should not block the logging function.
All logrus fields will be sent as additional fields on Graylog.
Usage
The hook must be configured with:
A Graylog GELF UDP address (a "ip:port" string).
an optional hash with extra global fields. These fields will be included in all messages sent to Graylog
package main
import (
log "github.com/sirupsen/logrus""github.com/gemnasium/logrus-graylog-hook/v3"
)
funcmain() {
hook:=graylog.NewGraylogHook("<graylog_ip>:<graylog_port>", map[string]interface{}{"this": "is logged every time"})
log.AddHook(hook)
log.Info("some logging message")
}
Asynchronous logger
package main
import (
log "github.com/sirupsen/logrus""github.com/gemnasium/logrus-graylog-hook/v3"
)
funcmain() {
hook:=graylog.NewAsyncGraylogHook("<graylog_ip>:<graylog_port>", map[string]interface{}{"this": "is logged every time"})
// NOTE: you must call Flush() before your program exits to ensure ALL of your logs are sent.// This defer statement will not have that effect if you write it in a non-main() method.deferhook.Flush()
log.AddHook(hook)
log.Info("some logging message")
}
Disable standard logging
For some reason, you may want to disable logging on stdout, and keep only the messages in Graylog (ie: a webserver inside a docker container).
You can redirect stdout to /dev/null, or just not log anything by creating a NullFormatter implementing logrus.Formatter interface:
And set this formatter as the new logging formatter:
log.Infof("Log messages are now sent to Graylog (udp://%s)", graylogAddr) // Give a hint why logs are emptylog.AddHook(graylog.NewGraylogHook(graylogAddr, "api", map[string]interface{}{})) // set graylogAddr accordinglylog.SetFormatter(new(NullFormatter)) // Don't send logs to stdout
