Feature request: send logs to stdout for kubernetes consumption #810

Closed funkypenguin closed 2 years ago

funkypenguin commented 3 years ago

Hey guys!

Would it be possible to configure the fdb pods (spawned by the operator) to output logs to stdout, as well as to the filesystem? For us, this'd mean we could capture the log output in our logging platform (graylog / loki), rather than having to look in the pod's filesystem to find the logs :)

Cheers! D

Since FoundationDB itself doesn't support to log to stdout/stderr (or both) see https://apple.github.io/foundationdb/configuration.html#foundationdb-conf there is nothing that the operator could configure. One way to workaround this is by adding an additional sidecar that streams (e.g. tail) the logs to stdout, that would be part of the ProcessSettings.

Closing this one. The workaround for this is just running a sidecar with a tail command.
