Hi Vladimir
anyway, do you already have GELF in your custom distribution ?
If so, I would love to document it for other potential users, or even
propose an optional feature to add this.
WDYT ?

Hi there!
Lukasz, Jean-Baptiste, thanx for reply. Actually your opinion is expected and
reasonable.
Lukasz, couple of comments:
Proposed solution is not specific for any tool - GELF is very common format for
app log streaming and it’s popularity is growing.
About custom distribution:
Usually, ops team is orthogonal to dev team. Infrastructure services like
logging provided by ops team, deployment platform stated by dev team. It’s not
comfortable to require custom version of Karaf from dev team. Moreover it is
not always possible. In our projects we support many Karaf versions and
distribution from Apache Servicemix 4.4 (Karaf 2.2.x) to TalendESB 5.x to
modern Karaf 4.0.x - it is far from always possible to build custom distr. But
on all of this distrs we use one set of custom appenders (!) for 4+ years. One
of that appenders finally die (compression, file rotation etc), but not other.
Lukasz is absolutely right - logging is part of foundation functionalities and
because of that it is hard to extend in comparison to other parts. I’ve first
voted for removing blueprint from base distribution but ask you for common
streaming log appender.
Anyway, thanx for Karaf - it is very good platform for any server solutions on
JVM. Of cause if you want and can adapt it.
Regards,
Vladimir Konkov
