Hot Reloading for Logs

An example server that can live-reload logging configuration. The server itself just logs requests and manages its own config.

The logging configuration can be updated and reloaded at will. If the /-/reload endpoint detects that the configuration has not changed, no action will be taken (indicated in the logs).

Demo

log-reload-fps

Configuration

The server can be configured via flags on the command-line.

Flag Type Default Description
-bind-address String localhost The address at which to listen for requests.
-config-file String config.yaml The path to the config file to use.
