cloudwatch-logger

A simple tool to connect the standard input stream to Amazon CloudWatch.

Usage

cloudwatch-logger [-t] LOG-GROUP-NAME LOG-STREAM-NAME

If the -t option is specified, the input will also be copied to standard output.

The log group and log stream will automatically be created if necessary.

NOTE: The named log stream must not exist prior to running this program.

Build instructions

$ make

If you want to cross-compile, set the GOOS and GOARCH environment variables first. See https://golang.org/doc/install/source for details on the possible values.
