I will not maintain this anymore. There are better logging frameworks out there. Try https://github.com/winstonjs/winston or https://github.com/trentm/node-bunyan
If some still wants to maintain this, just leave me a message, I'll be happy to hand over ownership.
This is a syslog appender for log4js. It is a rewrite of https://www.npmjs.com/package/log4js-node-syslog. It uses ain2 (https://github.com/phuesler/ain) again since node-syslog does not work with the latest versions of node.
log4js-syslog-appender works with node versions 0.10.x, 0.11.x and 0.12.x.
npm install log4js-syslog-appender --save
In your log4js config you can use the following configuration:
"appender": {
"type": "log4js-syslog-appender",
"tag": "YOUR LOG TAG",
"facility": "local0",
"hostname": "localhost",
"port": 514,
"transport": "UDP"
}
Options:
tag
: appears in front of your log message in the syslog / default: log4js
facility
: your syslog facility / default: local0
hostname
: hostname of your syslog server / default: localhost
port
: port of your syslog server / default: 514
transport
: how to connect to syslog server / default: UDP
"appender": {
"type": "log4js-syslog-appender",
"tag": "YOUR LOG TAG",
"facility": "local0",
"path": "/dev/log",
"transport": "socket"
}
Options:
tag
: appears in front of your log message in the syslog / default: log4js
facility
: your syslog facility / default: local0
path
: path to your syslog socket / default: /dev/log
transport
: how to connect to syslog server / default: UDP
svar log4js = require('log4js');
log4js.configure({
appenders: [
{
type: 'log4js-syslog-appender',
tag: 'My API',
facility: 'local0',
hostname: 'localhost',
port: 514
}
]});
var logger = log4js.getLogger('syslog');
logger.trace('a trace message');
logger.debug('a debug message');
logger.info('an info message');
logger.warn('a warning message');
logger.error('an error message');
logger.fatal('a fatal message');
This should produce messages in your syslog similar to this:
Jan 27 17:08:12 2015-01-27T16:08:12.808Z localhost My API[52315]: [WARN] - a warning message
Jan 27 17:08:12 2015-01-27T16:08:12.808Z localhost My API[52315]: [ERROR] - an error message
Jan 27 17:08:12 2015-01-27T16:08:12.808Z localhost My API[52315]: [FATAL] - a fatal message
Please note! Depending on your syslog setup trace, debug and info might not appear in the syslog.
If you want to send log messages via UDP, your syslog setup must accept network sockets in order to receive messages. Most syslog implementations have UDP disabled by default.
