Generate client-side configuration for rsyslog
Project description
Rsyslog Configuration Generator
This Python application generates client-side configuration for rsyslog using RainerScript. The configuration includes defining a ruleset and applying it to monitor log files.
Overview
This application provides two main functions:
client_ruleset_config
: Generates an rsyslog RainerScript configuration string to define a ruleset with disk queue settings.apply_ruleset_client
: Generates an rsyslog RainerScript configuration string to apply a previously defined ruleset to monitor a log file using the imfile module.
Prerequisites
- Python 3.x
- Basic understanding of rsyslog and RainerScript
Functions
client_ruleset_config(rule_name, server_ip, port, protocol)
apply_ruleset_client(log_file, tag, facility, severity, rule_name)
Generates a RainerScript configuration string to define a ruleset and apply the rule.
Arguments:
rule_name
(str): Name of the ruleset.server_ip
(str): IP address or hostname of the rsyslog server.port
(int): Port number to send logs to.protocol
(str): Protocol to use ('tcp' or 'udp').log_file
(str): Log file name where the rule should be applicable.tag
(str): tag of the log events.facility
(str): Facilities of the log events('local0' to 'local6', 'authpriv','mail' etc.).severity
(str): Log criticality('info','warn','crit' etc.).
Returns:
str
: RainerScript configuration string defining the ruleset.
Examples:
config = client_ruleset_config("myRuleset", "192.168.1.100", 514, "tcp")
print(config)
apply = apply_ruleset_client("/var/log/message", "message_log", "local3", "info", "myRuleset")
print(apply)
