Requirements
Platforms
- Ubuntu (tested using 14.04)
Attributes
remote_syslog2 runtime configuration
The main configuration of remote_syslog2 is done using a hash which mirrors the structure of the remote_syslog2 config yaml file...
node['remote_syslog2']['config'] = { files: [], exclude_files: [], exclude_patterns: [], hostname: node['hostname'], destination: { host: 'logs.papertrailapp.com', port: 12345 } }
Since this is rendered directly to YAML, you can theoretically configure any value which is normally configurable. For more information please reference the remote_syslog2 examples
Note that for the sake of clarity this cookbook saves the config file to /etc/remote_syslog2.yml rather than /etc/log_files.yml by default
