Description =========== Installs and configures rsyslog for [Loggly](http://www.loggly.com). Makes use of user-provided lists of files and/or directories to create the appropriate rsyslog configuration file. Requirements ============ Platform -------- This should work on any linux platform that has rsyslog installed. It has been tested on Ubuntu 12.04. Attributes ========== * `node['loggly']['token']` - Your Loggly customer token (required). * `node['loggly']['dashboard_url']` - The URL of your Loggly (optional). * `node['loggly']['logfiles']` - A list of individual logfiles to monitor (optional). Each logfile to be monitored is of the format: ``` { :filename => "/var/log/filename.log", :tag => "tag you want for this logfile", :statefile => "unique-name-for-statefile" } ``` * `node['loggly']['logdirs']` - A list of directories to monitor (optional). The rsyslog.conf template will create an [imfile](http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/imfile.html) block for each file ending in '.log' in that directory. Each logdir in the list is of the format: ``` { :directory => "/var/log/directory", :tag => "tag for all files in this directory" } ``` Usage ===== Include the default recipe in a run list to have rsyslog run. Include your Loggly customer token and any logfiles and directories you want to send data to loggly in the `node['loggly']` attributes. Rsyslog will restart when the specified logfiles or directories change. Licence and Author ================== Author:: Ryn Daniels Copyright:: 2014, GameChanger Media.
