AWS CloudWatch Logs Cookbook

Runtime
License

Unofficial Chef Cookbook that installs AWS CloudWatch Logs<sup>™</sup>
Agent and deploy it's configurations automatically.

Usage

Add this cookbook to your base recipe:
ruby
cookbook 'aws-cloudwatchlogs', '~> 1.1.2'

You need to configure the following node attributes via an environment or role:
ruby
default_attributes(
'aws-cwlogs' => {
'region' => 'your_aws_region',
'aws_access_key_id' => 'your_aws_access_key',
'aws_secret_access_key' => 'your_aws_secret_key',
'log_files' => {
'/var/log/syslog' => {
'datetime_format' => '%b %d %H:%M:%S',
'file' => '/var/log/syslog',
'buffer_duration' => '5000',
'log_stream_name' => '{instance_id}',
'initial_position' => 'start_of_file',
'log_group_name' => '/var/log/syslog'
}
}
}
)

Or you can also configure by declaring it in another cookbook at a higher precedence level:
ruby
default['aws-cwlogs']['region'] = 'your_aws_region'
default['aws-cwlogs']['aws_access_key_id'] = 'your_aws_access_key'
default['aws-cwlogs']['aws_secret_access_key'] = 'your_aws_secret_key'
default['aws-cwlogs']['log_files']['/var/log/syslog'] = {
'datetime_format' => '%b %d %H:%M:%S',
'file' => '/var/log/syslog',
'buffer_duration' => '5000',
'log_stream_name' => '{instance_id}',
'initial_position' => 'start_of_file',
'log_group_name' => '/var/log/syslog'
}

Remember: You can configure as many logs as you need with log_files attribute.

Note: We are not making use of data_bags for AWS Credentials in this recipe at this time.

Example

Those attributes used before will generate the AWS CloudWatch Logs configuration below:

[/var/log/syslog]
datetime_format = %b %d %H:%M:%S
file = /var/log/syslog
buffer_duration = 5000
log_stream_name = {instance_id}
initial_position = start_of_file
log_group_name = /var/log/syslog
