LogPipe

Accept logs via cmdline and ship them to elasticsearch

Building

• go build -o bin/logpipe or via docker
• docker build -t sf-logpipe .
• docker-compose up -d

Adding a log entry

• Start the program - ./bin/logpipe (ignore if using docker)
• Then run echo "Myattribute:MyValue|Myattribute2:MyValue2|" | nc -U ./logPipe.sock

Notes:

• Log format is "attr:val|", each attribute-value pair must be terminated with a pipe(|)
• Timestamp is automatically added to log entries
• Elasticsearch credentials must be configured in config.yaml
• Program/Container must be restarted after config changes
