Cloud Logging

What You’ll Learn

How to use Google Cloud Logging to monitor Foyle.

Google Cloud Logging

If you are running Foyle locally but want to stream logs to Cloud Logging you can edit the logging stanza in your config as follows:

logging:
  sinks:
    - json: true
      path: gcplogs:///projects/${PROJECT}/logs/foyle     

Remember to substitute in your actual project for ${PROJECT}.

In the Google Cloud Console you can find the logs using the query

logName = "projects/${PROJECT}/logs/foyle"

While Foyle logs to JSON files, Google Cloud Logging is convenient for querying and viewing your logs.

Logging to Standard Error

If you want to log to standard error you can set the logging stanza in your config as follows:

logging:
  sinks:
    - json: false
      path: stderr
