logentries
==========
This role installs and configures the logentries.com agent.
Requirements
------------
Tested on:
- Debian wheezy, jessie
- Ubuntu trusty, precise, wily, vivid
- Centos 6, 7
Role Variables
--------------
Only thing required by this role is your logentries.com account key. But you probably want to follow one or more logs so
an average configration looks like this:
```yml
logentries_account_key: "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxx"
logentries_logs:
- name: "Authentication"
path: "/var/log/auth.log"
```
When you later on want to unfollow a log:
```yml
logentries_logs:
- name: "Authentication"
path: "/var/log/auth.log"
state: absent
```
You may also specify hostname, otherwise `ansible_fqdn` will be used:
```yml
logentries_hostname: my.host.com
```
Alternatively you can specify the key of existing logentries log set:
```yml
logentries_set_key: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
```
Dependencies
------------
None.
