docker run -d -v /path/to/config:/home/logio/.log.io -v /var/log/apache2:/logs/apache2 --name logio-harvester temal/logio-harvester

What you need to provide

Logfiles

An example for harvester.conf fiting our example here would be:

exports.config = {
    nodeName: "webserver01",
    logStreams: {
      apache: [
        "/logs/apache2/access.log",
        "/logs/apache2/error.log"
      ]
    },
    server: {
      host: 'CHANGEME',
      port: 28777
    }
  }

Linking of containers

Remember to change the server host to the corresponding log.io-server host. If you link them with "--link logio-server:logserver" you can change the value of "host" to "logserver". If you have a static IP for you logio-server instance, you can also just put this IP into the config.
