winston-logstash

A Logstash TCP transport for winston.

Based on the great work by @jaakkos https://github.com/jaakkos/winston-logstash

I decide to clone and deploy separately - since the code styles and nodejs version support that I have are very different from those of the original authors. But I will be more than happy if this fork will be merged back into the original project

Usage

Node

  var winston = require('winston');

  //
  // Requiring `winston-logstash` will expose
  // `winston.transports.Logstash`
  //
  require('winston-logstash');

  winston.add(winston.transports.Logstash, {
    port: 28777,
    node_name: 'my node name',
    host: '127.0.0.1'
  });

Logstash config

  input {
    # Sample input over TCP
    tcp { port => 28777 type=>"sample" }
  }
  output {
    stdout { debug => true }
  }

  filter {
    json {
      source => "message"
    }
  }
