Logger::Syslog(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Logger::Syslog(3pm)
NAME
Logger::Syslog -- an intuitive wrapper over Syslog for Perl
DESCRIPTION
You want to deal with syslog, but you don't want to bother with Sys::Syslog, that module is for you.
Logger::Syslog takes care of everything regarding the Syslog communication, all you have to do is to use the function you need to send a
message to syslog.
Logger::Syslog provides one function per Syslog message level: debug, info, warning, error, notice, critic, alert.
NOTES
Logger::Syslog is compliant with mod_perl, all you have to do when using it in such an environement is to call logger_init() at the
beginning of your CGI, that will garantee that everything will run smoothly (otherwise, issues with the syslog socket can happen in
mod_perl env).
SYNOPSIS
use Logger::Syslog;
info("Starting at ".localtime());
...
if ($error) {
error("An error occured!");
exit 1;
}
...
notice("There something to notify");
FUNCTIONS
logger_init
Call this to explicitly open a Syslog socket. You can optionaly specify a Syslog facility.
That function is called when you use the module, if you're not in a mod_perl environement.
Examples:
# open a syslog socket with default facility (user)
logger_init();
# open a syslog socket on the 'local' facility
logger_init('local');
logger_close
Call this to close the Syslog socket.
That function is called automatically when the calling program exits.
logger_prefix
That function lets you set a string that will be prefixed to every messages sent to syslog.
Example:
logger_prefix("my program");
info("starting");
...
info("stopping");
logger_set_default_facility(facility)
You can choose which facility to use, the default one is "user". Use that function if you want to switch smoothly from a facility to
another.
That function will close the existing socket and will open a new one with the appropriate facility.
Example:
logger_set_default_facility("cron");
LOGGING
Logger::Syslog provides one function per Syslog level to let you send messages. If you want to send a debug message, just use debug(), for
a warning, use warning() and so on...
All those function have the same signature : thay take a string as their only argument, which is the message to send to syslog.
Examples:
debug("my program starts at ".localtime());
...
warning("some strange stuff occured");
...
error("should not go there !");
...
notice("Here is my notice");
