PROGRAM:
NAME
stdsyslog — log a program's output to the system log
SYNOPSIS
stdsyslog [-d fd:level] [-f facility] [-p pidfile] cmd [args...]
stdsyslog -f list
stdsyslog -l
stdsyslog -V | -h
DESCRIPTION
The stdsyslog utility executes a program, reads everything that it outputs to a set of file
descriptors (by default the standard output and standard error streams) and logs it to the
system log.
The stdsyslog utility may be passed the following options:
-d Specify the level for messages on a file descriptor; may (and probably should) be
used more than once. If no -d options are specified, stdsyslog will assume “-d
1:info -d 2:err”, i.e. log the program's standard output using the “info” level and
the errors using the “err” one.
-f Specify the syslog facility to use, or “list” for a list of the available values.
If not specified, stdsyslog will use the “daemon” facility.
-h Display program usage information and exit.
-l List the available syslog levels.
-p Specify the file to write the child process ID to.
-V Display program version information and exit.
EXAMPLES
The following examples are shown as given to the shell.
Log the string “information” to the “daemon:info” syslog facility:
stdsyslog echo information
Log the string “error” to the “local4:err” facility:
stdsyslog -f local4 sh -c 'echo error 1>&2'
Run the “sprog” program with two arguments, “some” and “args”, store its process ID into the
sprog.pid file and log the messages appearing on its standard output to “daemon:info” and
the ones on its standard error stream to “daemon:err”:
stdsyslog -p sprog.pid -d 1:info -d 2:crit sprog some args
