Module: GELF::Levels

Included in:

GELF

Defined in:

lib/gelf/severity.rb

Overview

There are two things you should know about log levels/severity:

- syslog defines levels from 0 (Emergency) to 7 (Debug).
  0 (Emergency) and 1 (Alert) levels are reserved for OS kernel.
- Ruby default Logger defines levels from 0 (DEBUG) to 4 (FATAL) and 5 (UNKNOWN).
  Note that order is inverted.

For compatibility we define our constants as Ruby Logger, and convert values before generating GELF message, using defined mapping.
