I personally think that the best way is to have the docker log kafka plugin sending logs to Kafka and then fetch then with rsyslog Kafka in module.
that's possbile, but it seems like a poor approach to need to install something as complex as kafka or fluent just to get logs to syslog.
any idea how receptive the docker folks would be to a modification to the syslog log driver that output the needed data in json? It should be a trivial thing to combine the 'send to syslog' part of one log driver with the 'write data in json' of a second log driver, adding a little metadata may be a little more work, but it's wasted work if it can't go upstream.
