NAME

Log::Agent::Channel::Syslog - syslog logging channel for Log::Agent::Logger

SYNOPSIS

 require Log::Agent::Channel::Syslog;

 my $channel = Log::Agent::Channel::Syslog->make(
     # Specific attributes
     -prefix     => prefix,
     -facility   => "user",
     -showpid    => 1,
     -socktype   => "unix",
     -logopt     => "ndelay",
 );

DESCRIPTION

The syslog logging channels directs operations to syslog() via the Sys::Syslog(3) interface.

The creation routine make() takes the following switches:

-facility => facility: Tell syslog() which facility to use (e.g. "user", "auth", "daemon"). Unlike the Sys::Syslog(3) interface, the facility is set once and for all: every message logged through this channel will use the same facility.
-logopt => syslog options: Specifies logging options, under the form of a string containing zero or more of the words ndelay, cons or nowait.
-prefix => prefix: The prefix here is syslog's identification string.
-showpid => flag: Set to true to have the PID of the process logged. It is false by default.
-socktype => (unix | inet): Specifies the logging socket type to use. The default behaviour is to use Sys:Syslog's default.
