Powered by node.js + socket.io
Harvesters watch log files for changes, send new log messages to the server via TCP, which broadcasts to web clients via socket.io.
Log streams are defined by mapping file paths to a stream name in harvester configuration.
Users browse streams and nodes in the web UI, and activate (stream, node) pairs to view and search log messages in screen widgets.

Harvesters connect to the server via TCP, and write properly formatted strings to the socket. Third party harvesters can send messages to the server using the following commands:
Send a log message
+log|my_stream|my_node|info|this is log message\r\n
Register a new node
+node|my_node\r\n
Register a new node, with stream associations
+node|my_node|my_stream1,my_stream2\r\n
Remove a node
-node|my_node\r\n
