Struct gelf::WireMessage

pub struct WireMessage<'a> { /* fields omitted */ }

WireMessage is the representation of a fully assembled GELF message

A fully assembled requires information only present in the Logger: Both the local hostname and possible missing metadata fields need to be added to the message.

A WireMessage can be serialized to GELF/JSON (with and without compression) and is the abstraction passed to the transportation backends.

Methods

impl<'a> WireMessage<'a>

pub fn new(msg: Message<'a>, logger: &'a Logger) -> Self

Construct a new wire message

The logger is required for populating the host-field and metadata fields which were not added to the message.

pub fn to_gelf(&self) -> Result<String>

Return a GELF/JSON string of this message

pub fn to_compressed_gelf(
    &self,
    compression: MessageCompression
) -> Result<Vec<u8>>

Return a compressed GELF/JSON string of this message

pub fn to_chunked_message(
    &self,
    chunk_size: ChunkSize,
    compression: MessageCompression
) -> Result<ChunkedMessage>

Serialize the messages and prepare it for chunking

Trait Implementations

impl<'a> Serialize for WireMessage<'a>

fn serialize<S>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error> where
    S: Serializer, 

Serialize the message to a GELF/JSON string
