C/C++ application talking with fluentd

[Rogerio Bastos]

Hi,

Is there any library or documentation about C/C++ application exporting log directly to fluentd ?

I want to write a apache/nginx plugin to log in fluentd. I know about in_tail pluging but a want avoid it because performance questions.

For nginx, you might want to take a look at this: https://github.com/fluent/nginx-fluentd-module

Check out Fluentd, the open source data collector to unify log management.

You can test in_tail performance with this config files.

Fluentd project doesn't have official C/C++ client but some users implement it with following protocol.

http://docs.fluentd.org/articles/in_forward#protocol

kiyoto's link is one example but nginx module uses json.

msgpack is more better than json for high performance.
