Hi,
I’ve been having to deal with relaying logs to a loki server.
This works nicely when enabling generic http support.
Sample configuration:
template(name="loki" type="string"
string="{\"stream\":{\"host\":\"%HOSTNAME:::json%\",\"facility\":\"%syslogfacility-text:::json%\",\"priority\":\"%syslogpriority-text:::json%\",\"syslogtag\":\"%syslogtag:::json%\"},\"values\":
[[ \"%timegenerated:::date-unixtimestamp%000000000\", \"%msg:::json%\" ]]}")
module(load="omhttp")
action(
name="loki"
type="omhttp"
useHttps="on"
server="mylokiserver"
uid="login"
pwd="verysecret"
checkpath="ready"
restpath="loki/api/v1/push"
template="loki"
batch="on"
batch.format="lokirest"
batch.maxsize="1000"
)
