First, install libzmq from the HEAD on github: +http://github.com/zeromq/libzmq. You can clone the repository, build, then +install it. The directions for doing so are there in the readme. Then, do +the same for libczmq: http://github.com/zeromq/czmq. At some point, the 3.1 +version of libzmq will be released, and a supporting version of libczmq. +At that time, you could simply download and install the tarballs instead of +using git to clone the repositories. Those tarballs (when available) can +be found at http://download.zeromq.org. As of this writing (5/31/2012), the +most recent version of czmq (1.1.0) and libzmq (3.1.0-beta) will not compile +properly. + +Omzmq3 allows you to push data out of rsyslog from a zeromq socket. The example +below binds a PUB socket to port 7171, and any message fitting the criteria will +be output to the zmq socket. + +Example Rsyslog.conf snippet (NOTE: v6 format): +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- +if $msg then { + action(type="omzmq3", sockType="PUB", action="BIND", + description="tcp://*:7172) +} +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
