This template is: + +.. code-block:: none + + template(name="BSON" type="string" string="\\"sys\\" : \\"%hostname%\\", + \\"time\\" : \\"%timereported:::rfc3339%\\", \\"time\_rcvd\\" : + \\"%timegenerated:::rfc3339%\\", \\"msg\\" : \\"%msg%\\", + \\"syslog\_fac\\" : \\"%syslogfacility%\\", \\"syslog\_server\\" : + \\"%syslogseverity%\\", \\"syslog\_tag\\" : \\"%syslogtag%\\", + \\"procid\\" : \\"%programname%\\", \\"pid\\" : \\"%procid%\\", + \\"level\\" : \\"%syslogpriority-text%\\"") + + +This creates the BSON document needed for MongoDB if no template is +specified. The default schema is aligned to CEE and project lumberjack. +As such, the field names are standard lumberjack field names, and +**not** `rsyslog property names <property_replacer.html>`_. When +specifying templates, be sure to use rsyslog property names as given in +the table. If you would like to use lumberjack-based field names inside +MongoDB (which probably is useful depending on the use case), you need +to select fields names based on the lumberjack schema. If you just want +to use a subset of the fields, but with lumberjack names, you can look +up the mapping in the default template. For example, the lumberjack +field "level" contains the rsyslog property "syslogpriority-text". + + +Examples +======== + + +Write to Database +----------------- + +The following sample writes all syslog messages to the database "syslog" +and into the collection "log" on mongoserver.example.com. The server is +being accessed under the account of "user" with password "pwd". Please note +that this syntax is deprecated by the "uristr" directive, as shown below. + +.. code-block:: none + + module(load="ommongodb") + action(type="ommongodb" + server="mongoserver.example.com" db="syslog" collection="log" + uid="user" pwd="pwd") + + +Write to mongoDB server with TLS and client authentication +---------------------------------------------------------- + +Another sample that uses the new "uristr" directives to connect to a TLS mongoDB server with TLS and client authentication. + +.. code-block:: none + + module(load="ommongodb") + action(type="ommongodb" + uristr="mongodb://vulture:9091,vulture2:9091/?replicaset=Vulture&ssl=true" + ssl_cert="/var/db/mongodb/mongod.pem" + ssl_ca="/var/db/mongodb/ca.pem" + db="logs" collection="syslog") + + +Deprecated Parameters +===================== + +.. note:: + + While these parameters are still accepted, they should no longer be used for newly created configurations. + + +Action Parameters +----------------- + +Server +^^^^^^ + +.. csv-table:: + :header: "type", "default", "mandatory", "|FmtObsoleteName| directive" + :widths: auto + :class: parameter-table + + "word", "127.0.0.1", "no", "none" + +Name or address of the MongoDB server. + + +ServerPorted +^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +.. csv-table:: + :header: "type", "default", "mandatory", "|FmtObsoleteName| directive" + :widths: auto + :class: parameter-table + + "word", "27017", "no", "none" + +Permits to select a non-standard port for the MongoDB server.
