We utilize "GELF" format pretty heavily where I work (it is pretty nice) and needed a complete implementation so we could write our own hooks and just do other crazy stuff.

Includes a client/server, Node core style, streaming, chunking, proxy server stuff.  Was pretty fun to work on.  Hope it helps someone else out.

Hello again Marc :)
I'm investigating a possibility to use https://github.com/flite/winston-graylog2 in my project. And found that it has become orphan recently.
Along with that, it seems that the project does not use any existing full-featured gelf/graylog2 lower level transport but has own incomplete implementation right within higher level functions and therefore has limitations like this.

I would propose you to adopt the project. And together we could make it better and more simple by rebasing onto the graygelf. What do you think?

And also... have you compared your project with these:
?

See https://github.com/danmilon/winston-graylogger

But I ended up moving away from winston, so I don't use it anymore.
Anyway, it's a 50-liner.

Thanks. I'll try it shortly.
BTW, why do you not using winston anymore? Using anything better instead?

IMO it's too bloated and does way too much. I tried to write a patch once and it was a mess. Also it's not actively maintained. We're running an internal fork of Jog (visiomedia/jog) for now.

Have you made it able to send data to the Graylog2 in your fork?

Yes.

I'll try to release it during the weekend if you'd like.

We're using bunyan[1] and gelf-stream[2] - bunyan is quite lightweight and used by Joyent and a number of other services.
