Possible to pass through the hostname and the tag fields to the remote syslog? #29

Closed samitpal closed 6 years ago

samitpal commented 6 years ago

I have an architecture where I get parsed fields to fluentd. I then have a requirement to send these events to a remote syslog in addition to sending to ES. I tested with your plugin and it works well except that I was interested in sending the original hostname and the tag (program) to the remote syslog. Is that possible?

samitpal commented 6 years ago

Ok, playing a bit more with the configs, it seems all I had to do is set place holders for program and hostname.

program ${ident} hostname ${host}

<buffer ident,host>

I'm closing the issue.

@samitpal can you share your config?
