Fluentd Erlang Client

How it works

To get started, you need to set your environment variables

application:set_env(fluentd, fluentd_host, "127.0.0.1"),
application:set_env(fluentd, fluentd_port, 24224),
application:start(fluentd).

To send data, see below for an example.

%% fluentd:send(<<"prefix.dbname.tablename">>, Data).
Data = {[{<<"userid">>, <<"111">>},{<<"counter">>, <<"1">>}]},
fluentd:send(<<"td.website1.statistics">>, Data).

Note that the prefix must match your td-agent/fluent conf file. For example for the above example, it would match the conf below.

<match td.*.*>
  type tdlog
  apikey "yourapikey"
</match>

Update your own dependencies in rebar if you need to.
