Syslog client for Python 3 (RFC 3164/5424) for UNIX and Windows
Syslog client following
- RFC3164 (https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3164.txt)
- RFC5424 (https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5424.txt)
with UNIX and Windows support. TCP and UDP transport is possible.
If TCP is used, on every log message, that is send to the specified server, and a connection error occured, the message will be dismissed and a reconnect will be tried for the next message.
A small CLI client is implemented in client.py. To call it, run
python -m pysyslogclient.cli
To setup the client for RFC 5424 over TCP to send to SERVER:PORT:
import pysyslogclient
client = pysyslogclient.SyslogClientRFC5424(SERVER, PORT, proto="TCP")
or for RFC3164:
import SyslogClient
client = pysyslogclient.SyslogClientRFC3164(SERVER, PORT, proto="TCP")
Log the message "Hello syslog server" with standard severity INFO as facility USER. As program name SyslogClient the PID of the called python interpreter is used.
client.log("Hello syslog server")
To specify more options, call log with more arguments. For example to log a the message as program Logger with PID 1 as facility SYSTEM with severity EMERGENCY, call log the following way:
client.log("Hello syslog server",
facility=pysyslogclient.FAC_SYSTEM,
severity=pysyslogclient.SEV_EMERGENCY,
program="Logger",
pid=1)
To disconnect, call
client.close()
