Sockets Handler
===============
This handler allows you to write your logs to sockets using [fsockopen](http://php.net/fsockopen)
or [pfsockopen](http://php.net/pfsockopen).
Persistent sockets are mainly useful in web environments where you gain some performance not closing/opening
the connections between requests.
You can use a `unix://` prefix to access unix sockets and `udp://` to open UDP sockets instead of the default TCP.
Basic Example
-------------
```php
<?php
use Monolog\Logger;
use Monolog\Handler\SocketHandler;
// Create the logger
$logger = new Logger('my_logger');
// Create the handler
$handler = new SocketHandler('unix:///var/log/httpd_app_log.socket');
$handler->setPersistent(true);
// Now add the handler
$logger->pushHandler($handler, Logger::DEBUG);
// You can now use your logger
$logger->addInfo('My logger is now ready');
```
In this example, using syslog-ng, you should see the log on the log server:
cweb1 [2012-02-26 00:12:03] my_logger.INFO: My logger is now ready [] []
