Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

@unilogs/unilogs-shipper

v1.0.1

Published

Easily configure and run a Vector shipper for the Unilogs log aggregation platform

Readme

Unilogs shipper

Prerequisites

  • You must have Docker running.
  • You must have already deployed the Unilogs platform, because you will need the addresses of the Kafka bootstrap brokers as well as the TLS certificate in order to connect securely.

Instructions

  1. npx @unilogs/unilogs-shipper@latest
  2. Follow the steps in the application.
    • The service_name will be available as a label in Grafana.
    • Note that the "path to logs" supports globbing. Also, the working directory for relative paths will be wherever you are when you start creating the shipper. (Example valid path: ./logs/*.log)
    • Paste in the Kafka bootstrap servers string and Kafka TLS certificate string exactly as they are given in the output of deploying the Unilogs platform.

Advanced Usage

Custom transformations:

  1. Follow the normal instructions dictated above.
  2. Edit the generated vector-shipper.yaml to your preference.
  3. Run npx @unilogs/unilogs-shipper@latest again.
  4. Choose the redeploy option.
  5. Check Docker to ensure your container is running. If it is, everything is OK. If not, repeat from step 2.
