NAME

Log::Dispatch::UDP - Log messages to a remote UDP socket

VERSION

version 0.02

SYNOPSIS

use Log::Dispatch;

my $log = Log::Dispatch->new(
  outputs => [
      [
          'UDP'
          host      => $destination_host,
          port      => $destination_port,
          min_level => 'info',
      ],
  ],
);

$log->info('my message');

DESCRIPTION

This class can be used to write messages to a UDP socket listening on some remote host. The datagrams themselves contain only the messages (there's no real structure to them), so you can easily listen in using netcat.

SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS

Log messages are not encrypted. Be wary of logging authentication details such as usernames, passwords or session ids, financial information such as credit cards, or other personally identifying information over unsecured channels.
