Hy,

Here is the idea of the websocket destination for syslog-ng (it can be extended for source, too). This project wasn't selected for GSoC 2015, but maybe this year. You can vote for this project. :)

To answer your question there wasn't any code toward websocket destination in syslog-ng.

Best regards,

Hi Árpád,

FWIW we are sending logs to riemann [1] using the native destination,
and then clients can subscribe to riemann's websocket API.
Security and limiting can be handled using a reverse proxy.

Not exactly the solution you were probably looking for, but I thought it was
worth mentioning.

IIRC there was a GSoC project for implementing websockets natively in
syslog-ng, maybe someone else can comment on its whenabouts.

Cheers
