Graylog2Rails

This gem provide simple wrapper for gelf-rb gem and extending middleware stack of rails application for exception logging to Graylog2.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "graylog2-rails", "~> 0.0.1"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install graylog2-rails

It is highly recommended to customize Graylog2Rails config

$ rails g graylog2_rails:install

It will copy default config file into config/graylog2_rails.conf file.

Usage

If you want only to catch exception and you need do nothing. To check middleware stack run bundle exec rake middleware and you will see something like:

use ActionDispatch::Flash
use ActionDispatch::ParamsParser
use ActionDispatch::Head
use Graylog2Rails::Middleware <----
use Rack::ConditionalGet
use Rack::ETag
use ActionDispatch::BestStandardsSupport
use Warden::Manager
use Bullet::Rack
use Sass::Plugin::Rack

You also may use Graylog2Rails for logging custom messages:

Graylog2Rails::Notifier.notify!({
  :short_message => "Your short message here",
  :full_message => "Full message"
})

You also may redefine default options like facility or pass custom filter arguments like in gelf-rb. For example:

Graylog2Rails::Notifier.notify!({
  :short_message => "Your short message here",
  :full_message => "Full message",
  :_user_id => current_user.id
})

You should notice that such custom options have to be started with underline

TODO

1. Add rspec tests
