import logging
from tlssysloghandler import TLSSysLogHandler

logger = logging.getLogger()
logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)

# with default system certificate store
handler1 = TLSSysLogHandler(address=('secure-logging.example.com', 6514),
                            socktype=socket.SOCK_STREAM,
                            secure=True)
logger.addHandler(handler1)

# with custom certificates, via cafile/capath/cadata
# refer to https://docs.python.org/3/library/ssl.html#ssl.create_default_context
handler2 = TLSSysLogHandler(address=('secure-logging.example.com', 6514),
                            socktype=socket.SOCK_STREAM,
                            secure={cafile='/path/to/ca/file'})
logger.addHandler(handler2)

# with custom SSLContext
context = ssl.create_default_context(cafile='/path/to/ca/file')
handler3 = TLSSysLogHandler(address=('secure-logging.example.com', 6514),
                            socktype=socket.SOCK_STREAM,
                            secure=context)
logger.addHandler(handler3)

# or allow TLS without verification
handler4 = TLSSysLogHandler(address=('secure-logging.example.com', 6514),
                            socktype=socket.SOCK_STREAM,
                            secure="noverify")
