SYNOPSIS

use Log::Log4perl;

my $log4perl_config = q{
    log4perl.logger = DEBUG, RabbitMQ

    log4perl.appender.RabbitMQ             = Log::Log4perl::Appender::RabbitMQ
    log4perl.appender.RabbitMQ.exchange    = myexchange
    log4perl.appender.RabbitMQ.routing_key = mykey
    log4perl.appender.RabbitMQ.layout      = Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout
};

Log::Log4perl::init(\$log4perl_config);

my $log = Log::Log4perl->get_logger();

$log->warn('this is my message');

DESCRIPTION

This is a Log::Log4perl appender for publishing log messages to RabbitMQ using Net::AMQP::RabbitMQ. Defaults for unspecified options are provided by Net::AMQP::RabbitMQ and can be found in it's documentation.

CONFIG OPTIONS

All of the following options can be passed to the constructor, or be specified in the Log4perl config file. Unless otherwise stated, any options not specified will get whatever defaults Net::AMQP::RabbitMQ provides. See the documentation for that module for more details.

Connection Options

These options are used in the call to Net::AMQP::RabbitMQ::connect() when the appender is created.

user
password
host

Defaults to localhost.

port
vhost
channel_max
frame_max
heartbeat

Exchange Options

Except for declare_exchange, these options are used in a call to Net::AMQP::RabbitMQ::exchange_declare() to declare the exchange specified on the exchange option (See "Publish Options"). If declare_exchange is false (the default) the exchange will not be declared and must already exist.

declare_exchange

Declare the exchange, or just trust that it already exists? Boolean, defaults to 0.

exchange_type

'direct, 'topic', etc.

durable_exchange

Should the exchange survive a restart? Boolean, defaults to 0.

auto_delete_exchange

Delete the exchange when this proccess disconnects? Boolean, defaults to 1.

Publish Options

These options are used in the call to Net::AMQP::RabbitMQ::publish() for each message.

routing_key

The routing key for messages. If the routing key contains a %c or a %p it will be interpolated for each message. %c will be replaced with the Log4perl category. %p will be replaces with the Log4perl priority.

Defaults to %C

exchange

The exchange to publish the message too. This exchange must already exist unless declare_exchange is set to true.

mandatory

boolean. Flag published messages mandatory.

immediate

boolean. Flag published messages immediate.
