Go GELF

A Graylog2 Extended Message Format library for Go.

This library aims to be orthogonal to the Go standard library log. Future versions will include the ability to compress message and transmit via UDP to a Graylog2 node.

Usage

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"github.com/civisanalytics/gogelf/gelf"
)

func main() {
	gelfMessage, err := gelf.Info("This is a short message.", "This is a long message.\nIt includes multiple lines.")
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Error("Unable to create Graylog message.")
	}

	// Add additional fields to the returned message object.
	gelfMessage.Add("_HTTPMethod", "GET")
	gelfMessage.Add("_ResponseCode", 301)

	// Print the message in JSON format to stdout.
	fmt.Println(testMessage.String())
}
