good-udp
is a write stream use to send event to remote endpoints in batches. It makes a request with a JSON payload to the supplied endpoint

Note
good-udp
will never close the udp client.

GoodUdp (endpoint, config)
creates a new GoodUdp object with the following arguments
endpoint
- full path to remote server to transmit logs.config
- configuration object[threshold]
- number of events to hold before transmission. Defaults to20
