MCP Community Begins Work on Official MCP Metaregistry
The MCP community is launching an official registry to standardize AI tool discovery and let agents dynamically find and install MCP servers.
bunyan-syslog
Advanced tools
bunyan-syslog is a stream for bunyan
that consumes raw
records from bunyan and sends them to a syslog server.
npm install bunyan-syslog
var bunyan = require('bunyan');
var bsyslog = require('bunyan-syslog');
var log = bunyan.createLogger({
name: 'foo',
streams: [ {
level: 'debug',
type: 'raw',
stream: bsyslog.createBunyanStream({
type: 'sys',
facility: bsyslog.local0,
host: '192.168.0.1',
port: 514
})
}]
});
log.debug({foo: 'bar'}, 'hello %s', 'world');
That's pretty much it. You create a syslog stream, and point it at a syslog
server (UDP by default; you can force TCP by setting type: tcp
in the
constructor); default is to use facility user
and a syslog server on
127.0.0.1:514
. Note you must pass type: 'raw'
to bunyan in the top-level
stream object or this won't work.
If you want your logs to be in the normal bunyan format, rsyslog
allows you to
setup a template to format it as just the JSON object:
template(name="bunyan" type="string"
string="%msg:R,ERE,1,FIELD:(\\{.*\\})--end%\n")
local0.* /var/log/application.log;bunyan
You can also write this using the older $template
syntax:
$template bunyan,"%msg:R,ERE,1,FIELD:(\{.*\})--end%\n"
local0.* /var/log/application.log;bunyan
This module maps bunyan levels to syslog levels as follows:
+--------+--------+
| Bunyan | Syslog |
+--------+--------+
| fatal | emerg |
+--------+--------+
| error | error |
+--------+--------+
| warn | warn |
+--------+--------+
| info | info |
+--------+--------+
| * | debug |
+--------+--------+
You can run the test suite using the provided rsyslog
configuration:
$ rsyslogd -f ./test/rsyslog.conf -i $PWD/test.pid -u $USER
$ make test
$ kill $(cat test.pid)
If you have an older rsyslog
installed, you can adjust it to use the legacy
syntax:
$ModLoad imudp
$ModLoad imtcp
$UDPServerAddress 127.0.0.1
$UDPServerRun 10514
$InputTCPServerRun 10514
Note that when run this way, the TCP socket will listen on 0.0.0.0
.
