Handlr is a Python handler to logging services, i.e. Logstash as part of the ELK stack.

How to install

Simply run: pip install handlr.

How to use

An example would be to use this package for a logstash as part of the ELK stack.

import logging

from handlr import Handler

LOGGER_ENDPOINT = 'localhost'
LOGGER_PORT = 5040
LOG_LEVEL = 'DEBUG'
LOG_LABEL = 'VM_123ABC'
LOG_TAGS = ['virtual-machine', 'workers', 'EMEA']

log = logging.getLogger(__name__)
handler = Handler(LOGGER_ENDPOINT, LOGGER_PORT, LOG_LABEL, LOG_TAGS)
log.addHandler(handler)

# If you don't want the logs being shown to the console (aka only shown on ELK stack) then remove the below line.
log.addHandler(logging.StreamHandler())

log.setLevel(LOG_LEVEL)
log.info(f"Setup log, log level {LOG_LEVEL}. Sending logs to {LOGGER_ENDPOINT}:{LOGGER_PORT}.")

Enjoy!

# That's all folks...
