# node-graylog2

Graylog2 client library for Node.js, based on node-graylog. This
has been heavily modified to the point where there is not much left
of the original; however, this library should still be compatible
with the old one, except for configuration and the GLOBAL function setup
(some optional arguments in logging calls are not supported; they will be
logged as additional data).

** New: ** Chunked [GELF](https://github.com/Graylog2/graylog2-docs/wiki/GELF)
is now supported.

## Synopsis

### Available functions

* graylog.emergency
* graylog.alert
* graylog.critical

```javascript
var graylog2 = require("graylog2");
var logger = new graylog2.graylog({
servers: [
{ 'host': 127.0.0.1, port: 12201 },
{ 'host': 127.0.0.2, port: 12201 }
],

});

console.error('Error while trying to write to graylog2:', error);
});

```
