v0.14

18th September 2014

Breaking Changes

• The 'file' field in generated events has been renamed to 'path'. This
  normalises the events with those generated by Logstash itself, and means the
  Logstash multiline filter's default stream_identity setting is compatible.

Changes

• Fix connection failure and retry sometimes entering an unrecoverable state
  that freezes log shipping
• Fix ProtocolError with large log packets and on idle connections (since 0.13)
• Provide more information when the gem encounters ProtocolError failures
• Fix ssl_verify usage triggering error, "Either 'ssl_verify_default_ca' or
  'ssl_verify_ca' must be specified when ssl_verify is true" (#41)
• Fix (#45)
• Restore message reliability and correctly perform partial ack. Since 0.9 a
  full event spool from log-courier could be lost (default 1024) instead of just
• Significantly improve Log Courier gem performance within JRuby by switching
  JrJackson parse mode from string to raw+bigdecimal
• Add unix domain socket support to the administration connection
• Provide publisher connection status via the administration connection
• Gracefully handle lines greater than 1 MiB in size by splitting and tagging
  them, and make the size configurable (#40)
