InfluxDB backend for Crystal's Logger

The Crystal standard library contains a configurable logging mechanism. This allows that to be output to InfluxDB.

Installation

  1. Add the dependency to your shard.yml:

    dependencies:
  log-influx_backend:
    github: dscottboggs/crystal-log-influx_backend

  2. Run shards install

Usage

require "log"
require "log-influx_backend"

Log.setup backend: Log::InfluxBackend.new token: "your config token",
  org: "your organization",
  bucket: "some bucket"

Log.info &.emit "a log message!", cpu_count: System.cpu_count

The log entry's severity, context, and source are formatted as "tags", while the log message and any metadata are logged as fields.

Development

Running tests

Before the integration test will run, you need to write a config file in the project directory.

cat <<-YAML > spec-config.yml
token: (your API token goes here -- found in /etc/influxdb2/influx-configs wherever the influx service is running)
org: some-org
bucket: log-influx_backend.spec
