Network Logger is a logger backend that outputs elixir logs to tcp/udp

Most of it was shamelessly copied from json_logger.

Network Logger currently provides very few options:

• level: The minimal level of logging. There's no default of this option. Example: level: :warn
• output: The output of the log. Must be either :console or {:udp, host, port} or {:tcp, host, port}. Example: output: {:udp, "localhost", 514}
• metadata: Keys from the metadata to log. Example: metadata: [:pid]
• format: Format of the log file. Example: "$time $metadata[$level] $message\n" (default)

Example configuration:

config :logger, :network_logger,
  level: :info,
  format: "$time $metadata[$level] $message\n",
  metadata: [:pid, :module],
  output: {:udp, "localhost", 514}

TCP support is still experimental, please submit issues that you encounter.

You need to add this backend to your Logger:

# in your config...
config :logger,
  backends: [
    Logger.Backends.Network,
  ]

# or, in your code...
Logger.add_backend Logger.Backends.Network
