A note about GELF parameters

The following docker container attributes are mapped to the corresponding GELF extra attributes.

{
        "_container_id":   <container-id>,
        "_container_name": <container-name>,
        "_image_id":       <container-image-sha>,
        "_image_name":     <container-image-name>,
        "_command":        <container-cmd>,
        "_created":        <container-created-date>,
        "_swarm_node":     <host-if-running-on-swarm>
}

You can also add extra custom fields by adding labels to the containers.

for example a container with label gelf_service=servicename will have the extra field service
