slog-telegraf

slog-rs drain for Telegraf. Formats the log message and sends it using TCP or UDP to Telegraf.

Feel free to open issues or pull requests.

Usage

The logger supports the TCP and UDP socket listener of Telegraf.

Telegraf setup

conf [[inputs.socket_listener]] service_address = "tcp://localhost:8094"

or

conf [[inputs.socket_listener]] service_address = "udp://localhost:8094"

Rust example

```Rust use slog::{Logger, Drain}; use slog_telegraf::{TelegrafDrain};

fn main() { let drain = TelegrafDrain::new("tcp://192.168.0.108:8094".into(), "measurement".into()).unwrap().fuse(); let drain = slog_async::Async::new(drain).build().fuse();

let log = Logger::root(drain, o!("ver" => "1.2.1"));
info!(log, "log"; "field_key" => 10);

} ```

Notes

The only values treated as fields are the values passed in the logging call. In the example above, field_key=10i is a field. All other values are treated as tags. In the example above, msg="log",mod="your_crate::main",ver="1.2.1" are tags.

Performance

The project comes with a benchmark test for the serialization. On the test machine, the serializer is capable of serializing ~1 mio messages per second.

If you care more about performance and less about every log message actually arriving, which is also the design philosophy of slog, it is recommended to use the UDP socket.
