NAME

Egg::Plugin::Log::Syslog - Plugin for Sys::Syslog.

SYNOPSIS

  use Egg qw/ Log::Syslog /;

  # It writes it in the log.
  $e->slog(' log message ');

DESCRIPTION

It is a plugin to use Log::Syslog module.

CONFIGRATION

First of all, please set Syslog.

  # * It is a setting example for Linux.
  
  % vi /etc/syslog.conf
  local3.*    /var/log/myapp_log
  
  % /sbin/service syslog restart
  
  # Whether the setting became effective is confirmed.
  % logger -p local3.debug ' TEST OK!! '
  % tail /var/log/myapp_log

After the above-mentioned is set, the setting of plugin_syslog is added to the configuration of the project.

  plugin_syslog => {
    facility    => 'local3',
    handle      => 'MYAPPLOG',
    unix_socket => 1,
    level       => 'debug',
    },

It is as follows of each item.

facility
Name of log facility set to 'syslog.conf'.
handle
Electronic alias when log is opened.

Default is a project name.
unix_socket
setlogsock('unix') is issued when making it to true.

* There seems to be a thing that cannot be written well if this is not done according to the environment.

Default is false.
level
It is a log level. It always writes it at the log level set by this.

And, it might be good to put the setting of the following rotations on '/etc/logrotate.d'.

  /var/log/myapp_log {
    weekly
    missingok
    notifempty
  }

* I think that it should reactivate the WEB server and the database server after it rotates.

METHODS

slog ([LOG_MESSAGE])

LOG_MESSAGE is written the log.

  $e->slog(' myapp memo. ');
