Standalone fluentd server for Java/Scala

Scala versions: 2.13 2.12 2.11

fluentd-standalone Build Status Maven Central Scaladoc

Standalone fluentd (http://fluentd.org) server for Java and Scala.

This library launches a new fluentd server using a random port when fluentd is not started in the node.

Use cases:

  • Running test codes that use fluentd (logger) in a build server (e.g., Travis CI, Jenkins, etc.), in which fluentd is not running.

Usage (Java/Scala)

fluentd depends on some ruby modules. You need to install these dependencies first.

The simplest way is just install fluentd.

$ gem install fluentd -v 1.6.2
