New Relic Logrus Hook

=====================

This is a simple logrus hook that lets existing logrus applications hook into

New Relic error reporting using the New Relic Go Agent.

New Relic relies on having errors associated witha transaction. But logrus

doesn't know which transaction its being called from. So currently this hook

plugin just creates a new transaction called `errorTxn` and reports logged

errors under that transaction. They show up just like any other reported

errors. If any fields are supplied to the log line via `WithFields`, they are

reported as custom attributes on the `errorTxn` and will be visible in New

Relic.

Usage

-----

You can install this like any other logrus hook. Assuming that `application`

is your `newrelic.Application` from the Go agent, you can "hook" it up like

this:

```

log.AddHook(

	newrelic_logrus.NewNewRelicLogrusHook(

		application,

		[]log.Level{log.ErrorLevel, log.FatalLevel},

	),

)

```
