Add context to gelf message? #105

Open alekc opened 8 years ago

Hi, I am trying to figure out the way to add a context to logged gelf message (noob in java), with no lock for now.

I.e. I want to log a message "User Logged In", with additional fields (ip, browser, someInfo) which would be translated in ctxt_ on graylog. Is it possible to do this in Java?

Hey Alekc, sorry I've missed your assistance request. Did you solve it or you still need help?

no worries, I've moved to custom solution (using low level https://github.com/Graylog2/gelfclient), although if it's possible to use something like threadcontext or other solution feel free to share :)
