The Graylog software centrally captures, stores, and enables real-time search and log analysis against terabytes of machine data from any component in the IT infrastructure and applications.[1]
Installation
The installation consists of three different software programs, namely Graylog, MongoDB and OpenSearch.
It's advised to pin each package to one major version to circumvent upgrade issues. See following example that uses Graylog 6, MongoDB 6 and Opensearch 2.14.0. We're on NixOS 24.05.
Regarding OpenSearch, the version seems to be important. See Troubleshooting below to know why.
{ config, pkgs, ... }:
{
services = {
graylog = {
enable = true;
extraConfig = ''
http_external_uri = https://graylog.example.com/
'';
elasticsearchHosts = [ "http://127.0.0.1:9200" ];
package = pkgs.graylog-6_0;

};
mongodb = {
enable = true;
package = pkgs.mongodb-6_0;
};
opensearch = {
enable = true;
settings = {
"cluster.name" = "my-cluster";
};
};
};
}
Troubleshooting
Graylog officially states in their documentation that OpenSearch Version 2.16.0 should not be used. This is a problem as this version is the only one available as a nixpkg in the unstable branch. NixOS 24.05 uses 2.14.0 which doesn't have issues.
If OpenSearch v2.16.0 was already installed, Graylog has a workaround here: https://graylog.org/post/alert-notice-opensearch-v2-16/
