Hi! A repository for third-party and experimental modules was announced in May[0], and I'd like to give a quick update about what's been brewing there since then: * The SMTP destination has been updated a few times for newer versions of syslog-ng 3.3. As of this writing, it's up to date with current 3.3. * The MongoDB destination was copied there too, as its easier to maintain one copy, instead of a branch for 3.3 and 3.4 each. It's also been updated to use recent versions of the libmongo-client library, so it can take advantage of features added in the past few months, such as the ability to use Replica Sets and safe mode (see my earlier RFC[1] about these - what's mentioned there is implemented now). The host() and port() parameters are now gone, and no backward compatibility exists yet. That will be fixed at a later time. * On the modules/rss branch, there is an initial RSS destination by Viktor Tusa <tusa@balabit.hu>. It has a few serious issues, like not escaping the log messages, and outputting an invalid format, but those will be corrected Soon. There's not much one can use it for just yet, but it's going to be a neat toy, nevertheless! * The log visualisation helper[2] is included in tools/visualisation/. By the way, a new demo video is also available at http://vimeo.com/25700679, which shows ~3 months of logs in 50 minutes. Quite a bit longer than the previous video, and made with different gource settings, to be a bit less messy. For the time being, the module collection is primarily developed against syslog-ng 3.3. The modules have a high chance of working with 3.4 aswell, but that's not tested, and only minimal effort is made to be compatible with both. I'll try to figure out an easy way to properly support both versions in the future, but at the moment, the focus is on 3.3. 0: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.syslog-ng/11403 1: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.syslog-ng/11557 2: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.syslog-ng/11569 -- |8]
