node-red-contrib-syslog

This node will format msg.payload as a valid syslog message which can be sent to a syslog server via a UDP or TCP node.

msg.payload should be the message you want to send as a string. The message level, category, process, pid and hostname can be set within the node properties.

You can also set the properties dynamically by passing a msg.syslog object:

• msg.syslog.level (0-7)
• msg.syslog.category (0-23)
• msg.syslog.process
• msg.syslog.pid
• msg.syslog.hostname
• msg.syslog.time

This node will also parse incoming syslog formatted messages. It would typically come from an UDP input node set to output a Buffer. The msg.payload will contain the main message and the parsed properties will be available in the msg.syslog object.
