We're using Log4r with Logstash via Gelf. Is there a reason that "we" couldn't support tags? http://logstash.net/docs/1.2.2/inputs/gelf#tags

Hey,

I'm getting this exception:

...

Does anyone know what this could be?

Versions are: Ruby 1.9.3, Rails 4, gelf (1.4.0), log4r-gelf (0.9.0)

Thanks a lot!

log4r-gelf has a dependency on gelf ~> 1.1.3, while graylog2_exceptions has a dependency on gelf 1.3. Since these two conflict, they can't both be installed at the same time.

gelf_outputter.rb has lines like:

    opts['host'] = hash[:host] if hash[:host]

but hash is a Hash, not a HashWithIndifferentAccess. Therefore, options from log4r.yaml are ignored unless specified as symbols. You can either change the gelf_outputter to be like

    opts['host'] = hash['host'] if hash['host']

or change the documentation to say :facility instead of facility in yaml. I vote for the former.

Which graylog input type should I choose? I've got my other input using GELF UDP, is there a preferred input type for log4r-gelf?
