syslogger
A drop-in replacement for the standard Logger Ruby library, that logs to the syslog instead of a log file. Contrary to the SyslogLogger library, you can specify the facility and the syslog options.
Installation
$ gem install syslogger
Usage
require 'syslogger'
# Will send all messages to the local0 facility, adding the process id in the message
logger = Syslogger.new("app_name", Syslog::LOG_PID, Syslog::LOG_LOCAL0)
# Log all messages with given prefix. Might be combined with middleware to
# have request information in each log message.
# See https://gist.github.com/892489 for middleware example.
logger.prefix = '[PREFIX]'
# Send messages that are at least of the Logger::INFO level
logger.level = Logger::INFO # use Logger levels
# Logs all messages with given prefix, useful to have e.g. request ip
# See https://gist.github.com/892489 for middleware example
logger.prefix = Logger::INFO # use Logger levels
logger.debug "will not appear"
logger.info "will appear"
logger.warn "will appear"
