How to configure Amqp handler (eg for RabbitMQ) with Monolog and Symfony2

You need php-amqp module to be enabled to use this handler.

First you have to create some services:

<parameters>
 <parameter key="acme.amqp.connection.parameters" type="collection">
 <parameter key="host">localhost</parameter>
 <parameter key="login">guest</parameter>
 <parameter key="password">guest</parameter>
 <parameter key="vhost">/</parameter>
 </parameter>
</parameters>

<services>
 <service id="acme.amqp.connection" class="AMQPConnection">
 <argument>%acme.amqp.connection.parameters%</argument>
 <call method="connect" />
 </service>

 <service id="acme.amqp.channel" class="AMQPChannel">
 <argument type="service" id="acme.amqp.connection" />
 </service>

 <service id="acme.amqp.exchange" class="AMQPExchange">
 <argument type="service" id="acme.amqp.channel" />
 </service>

 <service id="acme.monolog.amqp" class="Monolog\Handler\AmqpHandler">
 <argument type="service" id="acme.amqp.exchange" />
 </service>
</services>

than in your config_prod.yml add the last service as a handler for Monolog. This is my actual configuration:

monolog:
 handlers:
 main:
 type: fingers_crossed
 action_level: error
 handler: grouped
 grouped:
 type: group
 members: [streamed, amqp]
 streamed:
 type: stream
 path: "%kernel.logs_dir%/%kernel.environment%.log"
 level: debug
 login:
 type: stream
 path: "%kernel.logs_dir%/auth.log"
 level: info
 channels: security
 amqp:
 type: service
 id: acmq.monolog.amqp
 level: debug

Just edit it to your needs and environment.
