Log server/client with sensible defaults that can be used for remote/centralized logging.

Log4r is a customizable logger with advanced functionality. Unfortunately, it only supports (rarely used) ROMP protocol for remote logging support. This project aims to improve remote logging by creatting a wrapper around Log4r that:

• Exposes Log4r functionality remotely through multiple protocols (DRb/Ring/AMQP)

• Writes to (log server) stdout AND log file ‘remote.log’ by default

• Allows customization of log server, log format and outputters upon start

• TODO: add AMQP rpc support

  Work in progress, please do not use it just yet…

sudo gem install remote_logger

server:

RemoteLogger::DrbLogger.start [options] # or,
RemoteLogger::RingyLogger.start [options] # or,
RemoteLogger::AmqpLogger.start [options]

client:

log = RemoteLogger::DrbLogger.find [options] # or,
log = RemoteLogger::RingyLogger.find [options] # or,
log = RemoteLogger::AmqpLogger.find [options]
log.info 'This is my log message'
log.error 'This is error'

• FIXME (list of requirements)
