A Java GELF client library with support for different transports.

Available transports:

  • TCP
  • UDP

All default transport implementations use a queue to send messages in a background thread to avoid blocking the calling thread until a message has been sent. That means that the send() and trySend() methods do not actually send the messages but add them to a queue where the background thread will pick them up. This is important to keep in mind when it comes to message delivery guarantees.

The library uses Netty v4 to handle all network related tasks and Jackson for JSON encoding.
