[logback-user] logback and flume

Wed Mar 2 14:35:26 UTC 2016

Hi,

Sure, first of all here is an example flume.conf file:

agent.sources=s1
agent.channels=c1
agent.sinks=k1
agent.sources.s1.type=avro
agent.sources.s1.channels=c1
agent.sources.s1.bind=0.0.0.0
agent.sources.s1.port=55555
agent.channels.c1.type=memory
agent.channels.c1.capacity = 10000
agent.channels.c1.transactionCapacity=100
agent.sinks.k1.type=logger
agent.sinks.k1.channel=c1

The source of my issues was the missing type=avro line.

 I used Scala for my test application, the dependencies I needed were:

libraryDependencies ++= Seq (
        "ch.qos.logback" % "logback-classic" % "1.1.2",
        "com.teambytes.logback" %% "logback-flume-appender" % "0.0.9",
        "com.gilt.flume" % "logback-flume-appender" % "0.1.7"
)

The test application itself is trivial:

import org.slf4j.{LoggerFactory, Logger}

object LoggingApp extends App {

  val logger : Logger =
    LoggerFactory.getILoggerFactory.getLogger("com.xxxxx.xxxxx")

  logger.debug("*Starting App.")

  for (message <- 1 to 2) {
    logger.info(s"*Processing: $message")
  }

  logger.debug("*Stopping App.")
}

I took the logback.xml from https://github.com/gilt/logback-flume-appender
Note, there is a typo, the class needs to be "com.gilt.flume.logback.FlumeLogstashV1Appender"

n.b. I'm not sure of the benefit of flume vs syslog-ng etc... I'm just trying to start looking at a  logback -> (flume|syslog-ng)->elastic search -> kibana
stack for log file management.

Regards,
Mike

Hi Mike,

Could you describe the steps you have undertaken for future reference?
