Module Core_unix_syslogSource

include module type of struct include Syslog end
Sourcemodule Open_option = Syslog.Open_option
Sourcemodule Facility = Syslog.Facility

Types of messages

Sourcemodule Level = Syslog.Level
Sourceval setlogmask : ?allowed_levels:Level.t list -> ?from_level:Level.t -> ?to_level:Level.t -> unit -> unit

All levels in allowed_levels will be allowed, and additionally all ranging from from_level to to_level (inclusive).

Logging functions

Sourceval openlog : ?id:string -> ?options:Open_option.t list -> ?facility:Facility.t -> unit -> unit

openlog ~id ~options ~facility () opens a connection to the system logger (possibly delayed) using prefixed identifier id, options, and facility.

WARNING: this function leaks the id argument, if provided. There is no way around that if syslog is called in a multi-threaded environment! Therefore it shouldn't be called too often. What for, anyway?

Calling openlog before syslog is optional. If you forget, syslog will do it for you with the defaults.

Sourceval syslog : ?facility:Facility.t -> ?level:Level.t -> string -> unit

syslog ~facility ~level message logs message using syslog with facility at level.

Sourceval syslogf : ?facility:Facility.t -> ?level:Level.t -> ('a, unit, string, string, string, unit) CamlinternalFormatBasics.format6 -> 'a

syslog_printf acts like syslog, but allows printf-style specification of the message.

Sourceval closelog : unit -> unit

closelog () closes the connection to the syslog daemon.
