This project is a simple golang application to generate random logs.
This app runs in a single goroutine, if you want to generate more load, scale the app.
To build the app run make build.
./logger to start outputting log to stdout you'll need Promtail or an agent to send the logs.
./logger --url=http://localhost:3100/api/prom/push to send log to Loki directly
By default the app log 500 logs per seconds, this can be increased or decrease using the flag --logps. For example
./logger --logps=1 will log one line per second.
To build a docker image use make build-image.
To run the image use: docker run ctovena/logger:0.1 --url=http://localhost:3100/api/prom/push
