The best integration point I can think of would be to allow a user to override the facility here:

https://github.com/Cymmetria/honeycomb/blob/master/honeycomb.yml#L9-L14

Work-around monkey patch until we have a PR proposed or landed to make this controllable via config...

though, I think the better approach would be to import from honeycomb.yaml facility

Hi @claudijd thanks for your suggestion

I think it should be quite easy to just add a parameter to the syslog integration that specifies the facility

This can be done by changing the instantiation here https://github.com/Cymmetria/honeycomb_plugins/blob/master/integrations/syslog/integration.py#L145 to add a facility parameter and change https://github.com/Cymmetria/honeycomb_plugins/blob/master/integrations/syslog/integration.py#L188 to take a parameter from the init function here https://github.com/Cymmetria/honeycomb_plugins/blob/master/integrations/syslog/integration.py#L179

If you could submit a PR with this change we'll be happy to merge it
Just remember to add the parameter in https://github.com/Cymmetria/honeycomb_plugins/blob/master/integrations/syslog/config.json

Sure, I'm happy to make that so shortly, probably in the next day or so. Thanks!
