NAME

POE::Component::Server::eris - POE eris message dispatcher

VERSION

version 2.6

SYNOPSIS

POE session for integration with your central logging infrastructure By itself, this module is useless. It is designed to take an stream of data from anything that can generate a POE Event. Examples for syslog-ng and rsyslog are included in the examples directory!

use POE qw(
    Component::Server::TCP
    Component::Server::eris
);

# Message Dispatch Service
my $SESSION = POE::Component::Server::eris->spawn(
        Alias               => 'eris_dispatch',     #optional
        ListenAddress       => 'localhost',         #default
        ListenPort          => '9514',              #default
        GraphiteHost        => undef,               #default
        GraphitePort        => 2003,                #default
        GraphitePrefix      => 'eris.dispatcher',   #default
        MaxLineLength       => 16384,               #default
);

# $SESSION = { alias => 'eris_dispatch', ID => POE::Session->ID };


# Take Input from a TCP Socket
my $input_log_session_id = POE::Component::Server::TCP->spawn(

    # An event will post incoming messages to:
    # $poe_kernel->post( eris_dispatch => dispatch_message => $msg );
    #        or
    # $poe_kernel->post( $SESSION->{alias} => dispatch_message => $msg );
    ...

);

POE::Kernel->run();

METHODS

spawn

Creates the POE::Session for the eris message dispatcher.

Parameters:

ListenAddress

Defaults to localhost.
ListenPort

Defaults to 9514, this is the port that clients can connect to request subscriptions from the service.
GraphitePort

Defaults to 2003, this is the port to submit graphite metrics from the daemon.
GraphitePrefix

Defaults to eris.dispatcher, all generated metrics will use this prefix.
GraphiteHost

This parameter is required to enable the graphite output. Without it, metrics will not be sent anywhere.
MaxLineLength

Defaults to 16384, this does not truncate log lines, but anytime a line exceeds this length the line will immediately be flushed from the buffer.

This only affects multi-line logging as multi-line logs longer than this setting will be split up into more than one message.
