Log::Log4perl::Appender::Fluent Log::Log4perl appender writing to Fluentd. Good logging requires today a lot more than in Good Ol' Times[tm]. Each log entry should have a structure and be machine-parseable. On the other hand, there are lot of logging libraries that don't quite support structured logs and only process flat strings. Log::Log4perl::Appender::Fluent is a Log::Log4perl appender plugin that provides output to Fluentd daemon. The plugin supports sending simple string messages, but it works way better when is provided with Log::Message::JSON or Log::Message::Structured object, because the structure of the message will be preserved.
