# Ansible FluentD Callback Plugin
This repository provides a callback plugin that ships Ansible output via FluentD to an indexer as configured via FLuentD.
### Ansible section
Install [fluent-logger-python](https://github.com/fluent/fluent-logger-python)
```
pip install fluent-logger
```
Append the following to the `[defaults]` section of your `ansible.cfg`
```
callback_plugins = <path_to_callback_plugins_folder>
callback_whitelist = fluentd
```
Put the `fluentd` plugin from this git repository into the path_to_callback_plugins_folder as defined above.
This plugin makes use of the following environment variables:
* `FLUENTD_SERVER` (optional): defaults to localhost
* `FLUENTD_PORT` (optional): defaults to 24224
* `FLUENTD_TYPE` (optional): defaults to ansible
### FluentD section

Shipping logs to elasticsearch
```
