Logging facility

This module provides functions to deal with logging. It extends Lwt_log_core with Unix features. It adds:

  • logging to the syslog daemon
  • logging to a channel (stderr, stdout, ...)
  • logging to a file

Same as Lwt_log_core.render, except that the template may also contain the following variables:

  • date, which will be replaced with the current local date and time,
  • milliseconds, which will be replaced by the fractional part of the current Unix time, to millisecond accuracy.

For example:

  • "$(date) $(name)[$(pid)]: $(message)"
  • "$(date).$(milliseconds) $(name)[$(pid)]: $(message)"
  • "$(date): $(loc-file): $(loc-line): $(loc-column): $(message)"

Syslog facility. Look at the SYSLOG(3) man page for a description of syslog facilities

val syslog : ?template:template -> ?paths:string list -> facility:syslog_facility -> unit -> logger

syslog ?template ?paths ~facility () creates an logger which send message to the system logger.

  • parameter paths

    is a list of path to try for the syslogd socket. It default to ["/dev/log"; "/var/run/log"].

  • parameter template

    defaults to "$(date) $(name)[$(pid)]: $(section): $(message)"

    code not tested with uwt :) Channel initialization contains blocking system calls.

val file : ?template:template -> ?mode:[ `Truncate | `Append ] -> ?perm:Unix.file_perm -> file_name:string -> unit -> logger Lwt.t

desf_file ?template ?mode ?perm ~file_name () creates an logger which will write messages to file_name.

  • if mode = `Truncate then the file is truncated and previous contents will be lost.
  • if mode = `Append, new messages will be appended at the end of the file
  • parameter mode

    defaults to `Append

  • parameter template

    defaults to "$(date): $(section): $(message)"

val channel : ?template:template -> close_mode:[ `Close | `Keep ] -> channel:Uwt_io.output_channel -> unit -> logger

channel ?template ~close_mode ~channel () creates a logger from a channel.

If close_mode = `Close then channel is closed when the logger is closed, otherwise it is left open.

  • parameter template

    defaults to "$(name): $(section): $(message)"
