NAME

Dancer::Logger::Syslog - Dancer logger engine for Sys::Syslog

VERSION

version 0.6

DESCRIPTION

This module implements a logger engine that send log messages to syslog, through the Sys::Syslog module.

CONFIGURATION

The setting logger should be set to "syslog" in order to use this session engine in a Dancer application.

You can also specify the other configuration via the 'syslog' config key, e.g.

 syslog:
   facility: 'local0'
   ident: 'my_app'

The allowed options are:

facility: Which syslog facility to use, defaults to 'USER'
ident: String prepended to every log line, defaults to the configured appname or, if not defined, to the executable's basename.
logopt: Log options passed top "openlog()" as per Sys::Syslog's docs. Defaults to 'pid'.

METHODS

init()

The init method is called by Dancer when creating the logger engine with this class.

format_message()

This method defines how to format messages for Syslog, it's a bit different than the standard one provided by Dancer::Logger::Abstract because Syslog already provides a couple of information.

DEPENDENCY

This module depends on Sys::Syslog.
