Problems with Phoenix

[NidalShater]

I have the following logstash config

# Sample Logstash configuration for receiving
# UDP syslog messages over port 7777

input {
  udp {
    port => 7777
    queue_size => 10000
    workers => 10
    type => "syslog"
  }
}

output {
  stdout {}
}

and I configured logger_logstash_backend in phoenix as:

Configures Elixir's Logger

config :logger,
  backends: [{LoggerLogstashBackend, :info_log}, :console]

config :logger, :info_log,
  host: "127.0.0.1",
  port: 7777,
  level: :info,
  type: "syslog",
  metadata: [
    extra_fields: "go here"
  ]

and try to call it like

Logger.info "Here is something: FF"
but I got the error

[error] :gen_event handler {LoggerLogstashBackend, :info_log} installed in Logger terminating
** (MatchError) no match of right hand side value: {:error, :badarg}

Can you also turn on console logging? The MatchError you're seeing is almost certainly the same general problem as covered in issue #21, i.e. this library can't encode the event to be logged as JSON.
