Hello, I am curious to know if anybody has tried (or even better, succeeded) in sending logs from Syslog-NG direct to Elasticsearch ? I see that there is already a driver for MongoDB, which is along the same lines... My first idea was to send all the incoming logs to a named pipe, then have a small script read from the pipe and trigger calls to ES for each line (not unlike the many SQL howtos out there). I suspect that this would work, but if anybody has any ideas which are more elegant, I would love to hear about it. Thanks, and have a great day ! -- Daniel Maher « can't talk, too busy calculating computrons. »
