30 | |
31 | Sys::Syslog, openlog, closelog, setlogmask, syslog - Perl interface to the UNIX syslog(3) calls |
32 | |
33 | =head1 SYNOPSIS |
34 | |
3ffabb8c |
35 | use Sys::Syslog; # all except setlogsock, or: |
36 | use Sys::Syslog qw(:DEFAULT setlogsock); # default set, plus setlogsock |

38 | setlogsock $sock_type; |
5be1dfc7 |
39 | openlog $ident, $logopt, $facility; |

42 | closelog; |
43 | |
44 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
45 | |
46 | Sys::Syslog is an interface to the UNIX C<syslog(3)> program. |
47 | Call C<syslog()> with a string priority and a list of C<printf()> args |
48 | just like C<syslog(3)>. |
49 | |
50 | Syslog provides the functions: |
51 | |
bbc7dcd2 |
52 | =over 4 |
5be1dfc7 |
53 | |
54 | =item openlog $ident, $logopt, $facility |
55 | |
23642f4b |
56 | I<$ident> is prepended to every message. I<$logopt> contains zero or |
57 | more of the words I<pid>, I<ndelay>, I<nowait>. The cons option is |
58 | ignored, since the failover mechanism will drop down to the console |
59 | automatically if all other media fail. I<$facility> specifies the |
60 | part of the system |
5be1dfc7 |
61 | |
2eae817d |
62 | =item syslog $priority, $format, @args |
5be1dfc7 |
63 | |
2eae817d |
64 | If I<$priority> permits, logs I<($format, @args)> |
5be1dfc7 |
65 | printed as by C<printf(3V)>, with the addition that I<%m> |
66 | is replaced with C<"$!"> (the latest error message). |
67 | |
68 | =item setlogmask $mask_priority |
69 | |
70 | Sets log mask I<$mask_priority> and returns the old mask. |
71 | |
23642f4b |
72 | =item setlogsock $sock_type [$stream_location] (added in 5.004_02) |
3ffabb8c |
73 | |
cb63fe9d |
74 | Sets the socket type to be used for the next call to |
3ffabb8c |
75 | C<openlog()> or C<syslog()> and returns TRUE on success, |
76 | undef on failure. |
77 | |
f66a7beb |
78 | A value of 'unix' will connect to the UNIX domain socket (in some |
79 | systems a character special device) returned by the C<_PATH_LOG> macro |
80 | (if your system defines it), or F</dev/log> or F</dev/conslog>, |
81 | whatever is writable. A value of 'stream' will connect to the stream |
82 | indicated by the pathname provided as the optional second parameter. |
83 | A value of 'inet' will connect to an INET socket (either tcp or udp, |
84 | tried in that order) returned by getservbyname(). 'tcp' and 'udp' can |
85 | also be given as values. The value 'console' will send messages |
86 | directly to the console, as for the 'cons' option in the logopts in |
87 | openlog(). |
23642f4b |
88 | |
89 | A reference to an array can also be passed as the first parameter. |
90 | When this calling method is used, the array should contain a list of |
91 | sock_types which are attempted in order. |
cb63fe9d |
92 | |
23642f4b |
93 | The default is to try tcp, udp, unix, stream, console. |
94 | |
95 | Giving an invalid value for sock_type will croak. |
cb63fe9d |
96 | |
5be1dfc7 |
97 | =item closelog |
98 | |
99 | Closes the log file. |
100 | |
101 | =back |
102 | |
103 | Note that C<openlog> now takes three arguments, just like C<openlog(3)>. |
104 | |
105 | =head1 EXAMPLES |
106 | |
107 | openlog($program, 'cons,pid', 'user'); |
108 | syslog('info', 'this is another test'); |
109 | syslog('mail|warning', 'this is a better test: %d', time); |
110 | closelog(); |
111 | |
112 | syslog('debug', 'this is the last test'); |
cb63fe9d |
113 | |
114 | setlogsock('unix'); |
5be1dfc7 |
115 | openlog("$program $$", 'ndelay', 'user'); |
116 | syslog('notice', 'fooprogram: this is really done'); |
117 | |
cb63fe9d |
118 | setlogsock('inet'); |
5be1dfc7 |
119 | $! = 55; |
120 | syslog('info', 'problem was %m'); # %m == $! in syslog(3) |
