class twisted.python.syslog.SyslogObserver: (source)
A log observer for logging to syslog.
See twisted.python.log for context.
This logObserver will automatically use LOG_ALERT priority for logged failures (such as from log.err()), but you can use any priority and facility by setting the 'syslogPriority' and 'syslogFacility' keys in the event dict.
| Parameters | prefix | The syslog prefix to use. (type: str) |
| options | A bitvector represented as an integer of the syslog options to use. (type: int) | |
| facility | An indication to the syslog daemon of what sort of program this is (essentially, an additional arbitrary metadata classification for messages sent to syslog by this observer). (type: int) |
Send a message event to the syslog.
| Parameters | eventDict | The event to send. If it has no 'message' key, it will be ignored. Otherwise, if it has 'syslogPriority' and/or 'syslogFacility' keys, these will be used as the syslog priority and facility. If it has no 'syslogPriority' key but a true value for the 'isError' key, the LOG_ALERT priority will be used; if it has a false value for 'isError', LOG_INFO will be used. If the 'message' key is multiline, each line will be sent to the syslog separately. |
