---- Some log files generated by application cannot be logged to syslog/syslog-ng pylogagent will watch list of log files in "configuration" file, then push new lines to /dev/log socket with prefix. USAGE: 1. Set up syslog-ng server to listen for log ----snip----- source net { udp(ip(ip_of_log_server) port(514)); }; destination nginx_error { file("/data/log/$HOST_FROM/$YEAR/$MONTH/$DAY/nginx_error"); }; filter nginx_error { match("^nginx_error"); }; log {source(net);filter(nginx_error);destination(nginx_error;}; -----snip----- These line above will make syslog-ng server listen for log on udp port 514, whenever a log stream deliver to its port, syslog-ng will parse, look for regex ^nginx_error, if it is found, log to file nginx_error. 1. Configure which log files pylogagent will watch #configuration /data/log/nginx_error.log 2. Start logagent python agent 3. Configure syslog-ng client ------snip-------- source s_local { internal(); unix-stream("/dev/log"); }; destination d_loghost { udp("ip_of_log_server" port(514)); }; filter nginx_error { match("^nginx_error"); }; log { source(s_local); filter(nginx_error); destination(d_loghost); }; ------snip-------- Restart syslog-ng and you are done. Tail log file on central log to see how it works ;) -- More will be added later
