there are probably ways to simplify the configs, 5K lines of configs seems excessive :-) how much of this is rulebase config vs rsyslog config?

Each app generates app-access.log, app-tomcat.log, app-application.log files. imfile allow me to add filename as metadata, but nothing more. As each application belongs to a workgroup, part of an organizational unit and is running on some (multiple) hosts, at the end I have approximately this for each app:

template(name="json_appX" type="list") {
    property(name="hostname")
    constant(value=" ")
    property(name="syslogtag")
    constant(value=" {")
constant(value="\"group\":\"group\","\"unit\":\"unit\",\"app\":\"appX\",")
    constant(value="\",\"file\":\"")
    property(name="$!metadata!filename")
    constant(value="\",\"msg\":\"")
    property(name="msg" format="jsonr")
    constant(value="\"}")
}
ruleset(name="json_appX") {
    action(
        template="json_appX"
        type="omrelp"
        target="server"
        port="20514"
        action.resumeRetryCount="-1"
        action.reportSuspension="on"
        queue.maxdiskspace="5M"
        queue.type="LinkedList"
        queue.filename="appX.qi"
        queue.SaveOnShutdown="on"
    )
}
input(type="imfile" file="/logs/appX/access.log" tag="group/appX" addMetadata="on" ruleset="json_appX" PersistStateInterval="1") input(type="imfile" file="/logs/appX/tomcat.log" tag="group/appX" addMetadata="on" ruleset="json_appX" PersistStateInterval="1") input(type="imfile" file="/logs/appX/application.log" tag="group/appX" addMetadata="on" ruleset="json_appX" PersistStateInterval="1")


which becomes 5K lines of config file.
