productscience / ansible-papertrailapp

A role for adding papertrail logging to a Centos or Ubuntu machines, using both rsyslog and papertrail's own remote_syslog daemon

Papertrail Role

This role sets up papertrail on the host the playbook runs, on, setting up logging via TLS to a host and port defined by papertrail_logging_host and papertrail_logging_port.

Right now, it works with remote_syslog over TLS, and rsyslog over UDP, but frustratingly, not rsyslog over TLS.

1. Download this role, and place it in your roles directory.
2. Update the papertrail_logging_host and papertrail_logging_port vars to the ones supplied on the Papertrail WebUI
3. Add role to your playbook
