Another option where you can assign name-value pairs yourself:
Have you looked at patterndb ? Here are a couple snippets that are working well for me:

parser p_proxy {
  db-parser(file("/usr/local/etc/patterndb.d/proxy.xml"));
};

destination d_redis {
  redis (
    host("localhost")
    command("LPUSH", "logstash", "$(format-json type=proxyproxy_time=${PROXY.TIME} proxy_time_taken=${PROXY.TIME_TAKEN} proxy_c_ip=${PROXY.C_IP} proxy_sc_status=${PROXY.SC_STATUS} proxy_s_action=${PROXY.S_ACTION} proxy_sc_bytes=int64(${PROXY.SC_BYTES}) proxy_cs_bytes=int64(${PROXY.CS_BYTES}) proxy_cs_method=${PROXY.CS_METHOD} proxy_cs_uri_scheme=${PROXY.CS_URI_SCHEME} proxy_cs_host=${PROXY.CS_HOST} proxy_cs_uri_port=${PROXY.CS_URI_PORT} proxy_cs_uri_path=${PROXY.CS_URI_PATH} proxy_cs_uri_equery=${PROXY.CS_URI_EQUERY}  proxy_cs_username=${PROXY.CS_USERNAME} proxy_cs_auth_group=${PROXY.CS_AUTH__GROUP} proxy_s_supplier_name=${PROXY.S_SUPPLIER_NAME} proxy_content_type=${PROXY.CONTENT_TYPE} proxy_referrer=${PROXY.REFERRER} proxy_user_agent=${PROXY.USER_AGENT} proxy_filter_result=${PROXY.FILTER_RESULT} proxy_cs_categories=${PROXY.CS_CATEGORIES} proxy_x_virus_id=${PROXY.X_VIRUS_ID} proxy_s_ip=${PROXY.S_IP} proxy_any=${PROXY.ANYREST})\n")
  );
};
log {
  source(s_network);
  parser(p_proxy);
  destination(d_redis);
};


Hope this helps.

I would embed json formatted strings as redis list elements.

You can format that using $(format-json)

I am trying to send information from Syslog-ng to Redis. In /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf I added this: destination d_redis { redis( host("127.0.0.1") port(6379) command("RPUSH", "sensor_name", "${sensor_name}")); };

 

I am trying to create a list of variables, hopefully one being timestamp. Here is an example of my syslog that I am trying to pull: http://pastebin.com/Hx5vW4VA

Here's is syslog-ng.conf, for reference: http://pastebin.com/2VQFBNmK

Those are logs being sent from Snort to Syslog-ng through Snort. I want to connect to Redis.

I saw that the command parameters are: comma-separated list of strings ("<redis-command>", "<first-command-parameter>", "<second-command-parameter>", "<third-command-parameter>") from: https://www.balabit.com/documents/syslog-ng-ose-latest-guides/en/syslog-ng-ose-guide-admin/html/reference-destination-redis.html

 I'm assuming I'd say RPUSH <something>... However, I am unsure of how to find the correct parameters.

Specifically, for now, I want to create a list (RPUSH) of timestamps, IP addresses (to and from), and event type (ICMP, for example).

I did find this list of parameters:

https://www.balabit.com/documents/syslog-ng-ose-latest-guides/en/syslog-ng-ose-guide-admin/html/syslog-ng-parameter-index.html

A good first try, I'd like to make a list of timestamps. How can I set the d_redis(command()) within syslog-ng.conf to do this?
