//! This file implements journaldriver, a small application that
//! forwards logs from journald (systemd's log facility) to
//! Stackdriver Logging.
//!
//! Log entries are read continously from journald and are forwarded
//! to Stackdriver in batches.
//!
//! Stackdriver Logging has a concept of monitored resources. In the
//! simplest (and currently only supported) case this monitored
//! resource will be the GCE instance on which journaldriver is
//! running.
//!
//! Information about the instance, the project and required security
//! credentials are retrieved from Google's metadata instance on GCP.
//!
//! Things left to do:
//! * TODO 2018-06-15: Support non-GCP instances (see comment on
//! monitored resource descriptor)
//! * TODO 2018-06-15: Extract timestamps from journald instead of
//! relying on ingestion timestamps.
//! * TODO 2018-06-15: Persist last known cursor position after
//! flushing to allow journaldriver to resume from the same position
//! after a restart.
