Clarify GELF 1.1 specification

Open joschi opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

There are several implementation details missing in the GELF specification, e. g. that using GELF via TCP mandates terminating messages with a null character (\0) or that compression cannot be used (due to the null character being used for message framing).

IMHO size limits for messages and fields should be documented while at it. There are de facto limits after which Graylog will fail parsing, saving, and indexing messages.
