Using logdna-stdin command

logdna-stdin needs to read your LogDNA API key from environment variable LOGDNA_API_KEY so make sure its set:

export LOGDNA_API_KEY=xyz

Usage:

Usage of logdna-stdin:
  -hostname string
        hostname you want logs to appear from in LogDNA viewer
  -log-file-name string
        log file or app name you want logs to appear as in LogDNA viewer

To send logs to LogDNA just pipe anything that writes to stdout to the logdna-stdin command.

$ some_command | logdna-stdin --hostname test.host --log-file-name test.log

From LogDNA viewer you'll now see output from some_command in log file test.log and can filter by host test.host.
