Functions

func NewLogger

func NewLogger(p Priority, logFlag int) (*log.Logger, error)

NewLogger creates a log.Logger whose output is written to the system log service with the specified priority, a combination of the syslog facility and severity. The logFlag argument is the flag set passed through to log.New to create the Logger.

func SetDataDogKey

func SetDataDogKey(k string)

Types

type Priority

type Priority int

The Priority is a combination of the syslog facility and severity. For example, LOG_ALERT | LOG_FTP sends an alert severity message from the FTP facility. The default severity is LOG_EMERG; the default facility is LOG_KERN.

const (

	// From /usr/include/sys/syslog.h.
	// These are the same on Linux, BSD, and OS X.
	LOG_EMERG Priority = iota
	LOG_ALERT
	LOG_CRIT
	LOG_ERR
	LOG_WARNING
	LOG_NOTICE
	LOG_INFO
	LOG_DEBUG

type Writer

type Writer struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

A Writer is a connection to a syslog server.

func Dial

func Dial(network, raddr string, priority Priority, tag string) (*Writer, error)

Dial establishes a connection to a log daemon by connecting to address raddr on the specified network. Each write to the returned writer sends a log message with the facility and severity (from priority) and tag. If tag is empty, the os.Args[0] is used. If network is empty, Dial will connect to the local syslog server. Otherwise, see the documentation for net.Dial for valid values of network and raddr.

func New

func New(priority Priority, tag string) (*Writer, error)

New establishes a new connection to the system log daemon. Each write to the returned writer sends a log message with the given priority (a combination of the syslog facility and severity) and prefix tag. If tag is empty, the os.Args[0] is used.

func (*Writer) Alert

func (w *Writer) Alert(m string) error

Alert logs a message with severity LOG_ALERT, ignoring the severity passed to New.

func (*Writer) Close

func (w *Writer) Close() error

Close closes a connection to the syslog daemon.

func (*Writer) Crit

func (w *Writer) Crit(m string) error

Crit logs a message with severity LOG_CRIT, ignoring the severity passed to New.

func (*Writer) Debug

func (w *Writer) Debug(m string) error

Debug logs a message with severity LOG_DEBUG, ignoring the severity passed to New.

func (*Writer) Emerg

func (w *Writer) Emerg(m string) error

Emerg logs a message with severity LOG_EMERG, ignoring the severity passed to New.

func (*Writer) Err

func (w *Writer) Err(m string) error

Err logs a message with severity LOG_ERR, ignoring the severity passed to New.

func (*Writer) Info

func (w *Writer) Info(m string) error

Info logs a message with severity LOG_INFO, ignoring the severity passed to New.

func (*Writer) Notice

func (w *Writer) Notice(m string) error

Notice logs a message with severity LOG_NOTICE, ignoring the severity passed to New.

func (*Writer) Warning

func (w *Writer) Warning(m string) error

Warning logs a message with severity LOG_WARNING, ignoring the severity passed to New.

func (*Writer) Write

func (w *Writer) Write(b []byte) (int, error)

Write sends a log message to the syslog daemon.
