# honeytail example
# honeytail backfill example

There is an example log file (`honeytail-example.log`) to see how this would show up in Honeycomb.
We are using the `--backfill` option to get the existing logs.

## honeytail HAProxy example

Starting with Honeycomb instrumentation "at the edge" (i.e., with your reverse
proxies or load balancers) can allow you to quickly get valuable data into
Honeycomb. You can begin gaining visibility into your systems quickly this way,
and gradually work your way inward (consequently gaining more power) by adding
native code instrumentation later.

This example demonstrates this concept by using haproxy as a reverse proxy to the
[simple server](../simple-server), and
ingesting the haproxy access logs as Honeycomb events.

## Run Natively

Run the Simple Server example linked above.

Use the provided `haproxy.cfg` for your local haproxy, and `rsyslog.conf`
for your local rsyslog. You may need to update the following hosts in `haproxy.cfg`:
- log to `localhost` instead of `rsyslog`
- point backend app at `localhost` instead of `api`

Then:

```
$ honeytail --debug \
--parser=nginx \
--dataset=examples.honeytail.haproxy \
--writekey=$HONEYCOMB_WRITE_KEY \
--nginx.conf=hny-haproxy.conf \
--nginx.format=haproxy \
--file=/var/log/honeytail/access.log
```

## Run in Docker

```shell
docker-compose build && docker-compose up -d
curl localhost
> I'm here!
curl localhost/hello/meow
> Hello meow!
```
