MEE::Rfc5424

Ruby loggger capable of logging against Syslog (RFC5424) over TCP and Syslog over TLS. Logs may be in either non-transparent newline framing or octet counting framing.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'mee-rfc5424'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install mee-rfc5424

Usage

By default the loggers will use transparent octet counting.

TCP Syslog connection

logger = MEE::RFC5424.tcp( 'syslog.host', 514 )
logger.info { "TCP logging message" }

TLS Syslog connection

logger = MEE::RFC5424.tls( 'syslog.host', 10242 )
logger.info { "TLS message logging" }

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
