Installation
pip install syslog-sd-logging
Usage
After installing you can use this package like this:
import logging
from syslog_sd_logging import Rfc5424SysLogHandler
logger = logging.getLogger('syslogtest')
logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)
sh = Rfc5424SysLogHandler(address=('10.0.0.1', 514))
logger.addHandler(sh)
logger.info('This is an interesting message', extra={'msgid': 'some_unique_msgid'})
This will send the following message to the syslog server::
<14>1 2020-01-01T05:10:20.841485+01:00 myserver syslogtest 5252 some_unique_msgid - \xef\xbb\xbfThis is an interesting message
Note the UTF8 Byte order mark (BOM) preceding the message. While required by
RFC 5424 section 6.4 if the message is known to be UTF-8 encoded,
there are still syslog receivers that cannot handle it. To bypass this limitation, when initializing the handler Class,
set the msg_as_utf8 parameter to False like this:
sh = Rfc5424SysLogHandler(address=('10.0.0.1', 514), msg_as_utf8=False)
