Sends logging events to Loggly, optionally adding tags. This appender uses node-loggly-bulk. Consult the docs for node-loggly-bulk, or loggly itself, if you want more information on the configuration options below.

npm install @log4js-node/loggly

(This is a plug-in appender for log4js, so you'll need that as well)

• type - @log4js-node/loggly
• token - string - your really long input token
• subdomain - string - your subdomain
• auth - object (optional) - authentication details
  • username - string
  • password - string
• tags - Array<string> (optional) - tags to include in every log message

This appender will scan the msg from the logging event, and pull out any argument of the shape { tags: [] } so that it's possible to add additional tags in a normal logging call. See the example below.

log4js.configure({ appenders: { loggly: { type: '@log4js-node/loggly', token: 'somethinglong', subdomain: 'your.subdomain', tags: [ 'tag1' ] } }, categories: { default: { appenders: ['loggly'], level: 'info' } } }); const logger = log4js.getLogger(); logger.info({ tags: ['my-tag-1', 'my-tag-2'] }, 'Some message');

This will result in a log message being sent to loggly with the tags tag1, my-tag-1, my-tag-2.
