Unilogs shipper

Prerequisites

- You must have Docker running.
- You must have already deployed the Unilogs platform, because you will need the
addresses of the Kafka bootstrap brokers as well as the TLS certificate in
order to connect securely.

Instructions

1. npx @unilogs/unilogs-shipper@latest
2. Follow the steps in the application.
- The service_name will be available as a label in Grafana.
- Note that the "path to logs" supports globbing. Also, the working directory
for relative paths will be wherever you are when you start creating the
shipper. (Example valid path: ./logs/*.log)
- Paste in the Kafka bootstrap servers string and Kafka TLS certificate
string exactly as they are given in the output of deploying the Unilogs
platform.

Advanced Usage

Custom transformations:

1. Follow the normal instructions dictated above.
2. Edit the generated vector-shipper.yaml to your preference.
3. Run npx @unilogs/unilogs-shipper@latest again.
4. Choose the redeploy option.
5. Check Docker to ensure your container is running. If it is, everything is OK.
If not, repeat from step 2.
