-Symfony2 Example
-----------------
-
-In Symfony2, first we have to create the handler service in our services.xml (or similar):
-
-```xml
-        <!-- Configure our socket -->
-        <service id="logging.socket"
-                 class="Monolog\Handler\SocketHandler\PersistentSocket"
-                 public="false">
-            <argument>%logging.socket.connection_string%</argument>
-            <call method="setTimeout">
-              <argument>2</argument>
-            </call>
-            <call method="setConnectionTimeout">
-              <argument>2</argument>
-            </call>
-        </service>
-
-        <!-- Create our handler and inject the socket -->
-        <service id="logging.socket_handler" class="Monolog\Handler\SocketHandler">
-            <argument></argument>
-            <call method="setSocket">
-                <argument type="service" id="logging.socket"/>
-            </call>
-        </service>
-```
-
-And then, change our config.yml (or similar):
-
-```yaml
-parameters:
-    logging.socket.connection_string:  'unix:///var/log/httpd_app_log.socket'
-
-monolog:
-    handlers:
-        main:
-            type:  stream
-            path:  %kernel.logs_dir%/%kernel.environment%.log
-            level: debug
-        firephp:
-            type:  firephp
-            level: info
-        custom:
-            type:  service
-            id:    logging.socket_handler
