Redis Outplug Plugin using hiredis library REQUIREMENTS: * hiredis ( https://github.com/redis/hiredis.git ) USAGE: This plugin has three current "modes" that it supports: 1. "template" This is the original mode that the plugin supported. You use an rsyslog template to construct a command that is sent directly to redis. This mode currently has an issue dealing with strings that contain spaces. It's useful for doing things like incrementing counters for statistics. ``` module(load="omhiredis") template( name="simple_count" type="string" string="HINCRBY testcount %programname% 1") *.* action( name="count_redis" type="omhiredis" mode="template" template="simple_count" ) ``` 2. "queue" The queue mode will LPUSH your message to a redis list. Unlike the template mode, it handles full rsyslog messages properly. If a template is not supplied, it will default to the RSYSLOG_ForwardFormat template. The "key" parameter is required. ``` module(load="omhiredis") *.* action( name="push_redis" type="omhiredis" mode="queue" key="testqueue" ) ``` 3. "publish" The publish mode will PUBLISH to a redis channel. Unlike the template mode, it handles full rsyslog messages properly. If a template is not supplied, it will default to the RSYSLOG_ForwardFormat template. The "key" parameter is required and will be used for the publish channel. ``` module(load="omhiredis") *.* action( name="publish_redis" type="omhiredis" mode="publish" key="testpublish" ) ``` NOTES * dequeuebatchsize now sets the pipeline size for hiredis, allowing pipelining commands.
