Quick Start

well... all you really need is python and pip.. and..

pip install feedr

then you can run

mouth feed -m 100

and VOILA! (look in your current dir for a “generated.log” file.)

to go beyond mouth feed, run:

mouth -h
mouth feed # to send send infinite amount of messages
mouth list transports # to list the default transports available to you
mouth list formatters # to list the default formatters available to you
mouth list fake # for a list of fake data fields you can use

and to configure feedr, see the configuration section.

Note

you can use the supplied vagrantfile which will load a vm with feedr for you..(soon, it will also contain rabbitmq, logstash, elasticsearch and kibana so that you can do some more play.)
