Options are the following:

• level: Level of messages this transport should log. (default: info)
• silent: Boolean flag indicating whether to suppress output. (default: false)
• type: Log type. (default: application)

• label: Label for logger. (default: empty)

• splunkHost: IP address or hostname of the Splunk server. (default: localhost)

• splunkPort: Port to send messages to on the Splunk server. (default: 54321)
• splunkHostname: The hostname associated with Splunk messages. (default: require('os').hostname())
• splunkFacility: The Splunk facility to send log messages.. (default: nodejs)

This fork places the message in the msg field of the log message instead of the type field. It also outputs a log label in the log if one was defined in the Winston logger.
