通过 syslog 发送 log4j2 堆栈跟踪

我正在尝试将堆栈跟踪记录到 Logstash 中。

日志堆栈是 ELK（ElasticSearch、Logstash、Kibana）。

产生日志的应用程序是一个Java应用程序，使用slf4j作为日志记录接口，以及log4j2作为日志记录的实现。

The log4j2.xml声明了这一点syslog附加器，与RFC5424 format:

<Appenders>
  <Syslog name="RFC5424" format="RFC5424" host="localhost" port="8514"
          protocol="TCP" appName="MyApp" includeMDC="true" mdcId="mdc"
          facility="LOCAL0" enterpriseNumber="18060" newLine="true"
          messageId="Audit" id="App">
    <LoggerFields>
      <KeyValuePair key="thread" value="%t"/>
      <KeyValuePair key="priority" value="%p"/>
      <KeyValuePair key="category" value="%c"/>
      <KeyValuePair key="exception" value="%ex{full}"/>
    </LoggerFields>
  </Syslog>
</Appenders>

我从 Java 应用程序记录 Throwable，如下所示：

org.slf4j.LoggerFactory.getLogger("exception_test").error("Testing errors", new RuntimeException("Exception message"));

当记录异常时，Logstash 会跟踪如下内容以向我显示它持续存在的内容：

{
   "@timestamp":"2016-11-08T11:08:10.387Z",
   "port":60397,
   "@version":"1",
   "host":"127.0.0.1",
   "message":"<131>1 2016-11-08T11:08:10.386Z MyComputer.local MyApp - Audit [mdc@18060 category=\"exception_test\" exception=\"java.lang.RuntimeException: Exception message",
   "type":"syslog",
   "tags":[
      "_grokparsefailure"
   ]
}

我确认 Kibana 在以下内容中显示完全相同的 JSON：_source其日志条目之一的字段。

这里有一个问题：没有保存堆栈跟踪。并且“测试错误”消息丢失。

The "tags":["_grokparsefailure"]很不幸但是与这个问题无关.

我尝试添加<ExceptionPattern/>看看它是否会改变什么：

<Syslog name="RFC5424" format="RFC5424" host="localhost" port="8514"
        protocol="TCP" appName="MyApp" includeMDC="true" mdcId="mdc"
        facility="LOCAL0" enterpriseNumber="18060" newLine="true"
        messageId="Audit" id="App">
  <LoggerFields>
    <KeyValuePair key="thread" value="%t"/>
    <KeyValuePair key="priority" value="%p"/>
    <KeyValuePair key="category" value="%c"/>
    <KeyValuePair key="exception" value="%ex{full}"/>
  </LoggerFields>
  <ExceptionPattern>%ex{full}</ExceptionPattern>
</Syslog>

<ExceptionPattern/>替换日志消息，并且also（可悲的是）省略了所有loggerFields。但它确实给了我一个类名和行号：

{
   "@timestamp":"2016-11-08T11:54:03.835Z",
   "port":60397,
   "@version":"1",
   "host":"127.0.0.1",
   "message":"at com.stackoverflow.LogTest.throw(LogTest.java:149)",
   "type":"syslog",
   "tags":[
      "_grokparsefailure"
   ]
}

再次强调：没有堆栈跟踪。再次：“测试错误”消息丢失。

我该如何使用log4j2将堆栈跟踪记录到 Logstash 中？我不一定必须使用syslog附加器。

本质上，约束是：

• 不被锁定到任何特定的日志记录基础设施（这就是我使用 syslog 的原因）
• 多行堆栈跟踪需要被理解为单个日志条目。 “堆栈跟踪的每一行”都是“单独的日志消息”是不合需要的
• 堆栈跟踪必须能够接受过滤器。我的一个典型异常可能有长达一页的堆栈跟踪。我想过滤掉像Spring这样的框架。

Log4j 2.5的SyslogAppender可以仅通过 UDP 发送堆栈跟踪.

<Syslog name="RFC5424" format="RFC5424" host="localhost" port="8514"
        protocol="UDP" appName="MyApp" includeMDC="true" mdcId="mdc"
        facility="LOCAL0" enterpriseNumber="18060" newLine="true"
        messageId="LogTest" id="App">
  <LoggerFields>
    <KeyValuePair key="thread" value="%t"/>
    <KeyValuePair key="priority" value="%p"/>
    <KeyValuePair key="category" value="%c"/>
    <KeyValuePair key="exception" value="%ex{full}"/>
  </LoggerFields>
  <ExceptionPattern>%ex{full}</ExceptionPattern>
</Syslog>

使用 UDP：两者ExceptionPattern and LoggerFields.KeyValuePair["exception"]开始作为多行堆栈跟踪的解决方案。

这是什么logstash当我发送异常时打印UDP通过系统日志：

{
    "@timestamp" => 2016-11-14T13:23:38.304Z,
      "@version" => "1",
          "host" => "127.0.0.1",
       "message" => "<131>1 2016-11-14T13:23:38.302Z BirchBox.local MyApp - LogTest [mdc@18060 category=\"com.stackoverflow.Deeply\" exception=\"java.lang.RuntimeException: Exception message\n\tat com.stackoverflow.Deeply.complain(Deeply.java:10)\n\tat com.stackoverflow.Nested.complain(Nested.java:8)\n\tat com.stackoverflow.Main.main(Main.java:20)\n\" priority=\"ERROR\" thread=\"main\"] Example error\njava.lang.RuntimeException: Exception message\n\tat com.stackoverflow.Deeply.complain(Deeply.java:10)\n\tat com.stackoverflow.Nested.complain(Nested.java:8)\n\tat com.stackoverflow.Main.main(Main.java:20)",
          "type" => "syslog",
          "tags" => [
        [0] "_grokparsefailure"
    ]
}

Inside [mdc@18060 exception=\"…\"]我们得到LoggerFields.KeyValuePair["exception"]堆栈跟踪。

除此之外：插入堆栈跟踪进入记录的消息本身， 谢谢ExceptionPattern.

供参考：就是这样logstash当我发送异常时打印TCP通过 syslog （即与上述相同的 SyslogAppender，但带有protocol="TCP"反而）：

看起来 TCP 确实“工作”了，但是将单个日志消息分成many系统日志消息（例如，当\n遇到）。
