<hr class="docutils" />
<p>This module provides an interface to the Unix <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">syslog</span></code> library routines.
Refer to the Unix manual pages for a detailed description of the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">syslog</span></code>
facility.</p>
<p>This module wraps the system <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">syslog</span></code> family of routines. A pure Python
library that can speak to a syslog server is available in the
<a class="reference internal" href="logging.handlers.html#module-logging.handlers" title="logging.handlers: Handlers for the logging module."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">logging.handlers</span></code></a> module as <code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">SysLogHandler</span></code>.</p>
<p>The module defines the following functions:</p>
<dl class="function">
<dt id="syslog.syslog">
<code class="descclassname">syslog.</code><code class="descname">syslog</code><span class="sig-paren">(</span><em>message</em><span class="sig-paren">)</span><a class="headerlink" href="#syslog.syslog" title="Permalink to this definition"></a></dt>
<dt>
<code class="descclassname">syslog.</code><code class="descname">syslog</code><span class="sig-paren">(</span><em>priority</em>, <em>message</em><span class="sig-paren">)</span></dt>
<dd><p>Send the string <em>message</em> to the system logger. A trailing newline is added
if necessary. Each message is tagged with a priority composed of a
<em>facility</em> and a <em>level</em>. The optional <em>priority</em> argument, which defaults
to <code class="xref py py-const docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">LOG_INFO</span></code>, determines the message priority. If the facility is
not encoded in <em>priority</em> using logical-or (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">LOG_INFO</span> <span class="pre">|</span> <span class="pre">LOG_USER</span></code>), the
value given in the <a class="reference internal" href="#syslog.openlog" title="syslog.openlog"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">openlog()</span></code></a> call is used.</p>
<p>If <a class="reference internal" href="#syslog.openlog" title="syslog.openlog"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">openlog()</span></code></a> has not been called prior to the call to <a class="reference internal" href="#module-syslog" title="syslog: An interface to the Unix syslog library routines. (Unix)"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">syslog()</span></code></a>,
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">openlog()</span></code> will be called with no arguments.</p>
</dd></dl>
<dl class="function">
<dt id="syslog.openlog">
<code class="descclassname">syslog.</code><code class="descname">openlog</code><span class="sig-paren">(</span><span class="optional">[</span><em>ident</em><span class="optional">[</span>, <em>logoption</em><span class="optional">[</span>, <em>facility</em><span class="optional">]</span><span class="optional">]</span><span class="optional">]</span><span class="sig-paren">)</span><a class="headerlink" href="#syslog.openlog" title="Permalink to this definition"></a></dt>
<dd><p>Logging options of subsequent <a class="reference internal" href="#module-syslog" title="syslog: An interface to the Unix syslog library routines. (Unix)"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">syslog()</span></code></a> calls can be set by calling
<a class="reference internal" href="#syslog.openlog" title="syslog.openlog"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">openlog()</span></code></a>. <a class="reference internal" href="#module-syslog" title="syslog: An interface to the Unix syslog library routines. (Unix)"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">syslog()</span></code></a> will call <a class="reference internal" href="#syslog.openlog" title="syslog.openlog"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">openlog()</span></code></a> with no arguments
if the log is not currently open.</p>
<p>The optional <em>ident</em> keyword argument is a string which is prepended to every
message, and defaults to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.argv[0]</span></code> with leading path components
stripped. The optional <em>logoption</em> keyword argument (default is 0) is a bit
field – see below for possible values to combine. The optional <em>facility</em>
keyword argument (default is <code class="xref py py-const docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">LOG_USER</span></code>) sets the default facility for
messages which do not have a facility explicitly encoded.</p>
<div class="versionchanged">
<p><span class="versionmodified changed">Changed in version 3.2: </span>In previous versions, keyword arguments were not allowed, and <em>ident</em> was
required. The default for <em>ident</em> was dependent on the system libraries,
and often was <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">python</span></code> instead of the name of the Python program file.</p>
</div>
</dd></dl>
<dl class="function">

<code class="descclassname">syslog.</code><code class="descname">closelog</code><span class="sig-paren">(</span><span class="sig-paren">)</span><a class="headerlink" href="#syslog.closelog" title="Permalink to this definition"></a></dt>
<dd><p>Reset the syslog module values and call the system library <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">closelog()</span></code>.</p>
<p>This causes the module to behave as it does when initially imported. For
example, <a class="reference internal" href="#syslog.openlog" title="syslog.openlog"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">openlog()</span></code></a> will be called on the first <a class="reference internal" href="#module-syslog" title="syslog: An interface to the Unix syslog library routines.

<a class="reference internal" href="#syslog.openlog" title="syslog.openlog"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">openlog()</span></code></a> hasn’t already been called), and <em>ident</em> and other
<a class="reference internal" href="#syslog.openlog" title="syslog.openlog"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">openlog()</span></code></a> parameters are reset to defaults.</p>
</dd></dl>
<dl class="function">

<dd><p>Set the priority mask to <em>maskpri</em> and return the previous mask value. Calls
to <a class="reference internal" href="#module-syslog" title="syslog: An interface to the Unix syslog library routines. (Unix)"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">syslog()</span></code></a> with a priority level not set in <em>maskpri</em> are ignored.
The default is to log all priorities. The function <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">LOG_MASK(pri)</span></code>
calculates the mask for the individual priority <em>pri</em>. The function
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">LOG_UPTO(pri)</span></code> calculates the mask for all priorities up to and including
<em>pri</em>.</p>
