<h1>Configuring <a href="../../Log4r.html">Log4r</a> with <a href="../../Log4r/Configurator.html">Log4r::Configurator</a></h1>
|
131
|
+
<p>
|
132
|
+
The Configurator class allows one to set up <a
|
133
|
+
href="../../Log4r.html">Log4r</a> via XML. Additionally, Configurator
|
134
|
+
contains methods to configure any <a href="../../Log4r.html">Log4r</a>
|
135
|
+
defaults. In particular, Configurator provides a method to customize the
|
136
|
+
logging levels.
|
137
|
+
</p>
|
138
|
+
<p>
|
139
|
+
<a href="../../Log4r.html">Log4r</a> is also configurable using YAML. For
|
140
|
+
that, there is a class similar to Configurator called <a
|
141
|
+
href="../../Log4r/YamlConfigurator.html">Log4r::YamlConfigurator</a>.
|
142
|
+
Please see <a
|
143
|
+
href="../yamlconfigurator_rb.html">log4r/yamlconfigurator.rb</a> for
|
144
|
+
details.
|
145
|
+
</p>
|
146
|
+
<p>
|
147
|
+
REXML is required for XML configuration. Get REXML at <a
|
148
|
+
href="http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/raa-list.rhtml?name=REXML">www.ruby-lang.org/en/raa-list.rhtml?name=REXML</a>
|
149
|
+
</p>
|
150
|
+
<p>
|
151
|
+
To use the Configurator class,
|
152
|
+
</p>
|
153
|
+
<pre>
|
154
|
+
require 'log4r/configurator'
|
155
|
+
</pre>
|
156
|
+
<h2>Custom Levels</h2>
|
157
|
+
<p>
|
158
|
+
Suppose you want the following levels and ranks:
|
159
|
+
</p>
|
160
|
+
<pre>
|
161
|
+
Foo < Bar < Baz
|
162
|
+
</pre>
|
163
|
+
<p>
|
164
|
+
This is easily accomplished:
|
165
|
+
</p>
|
166
|
+
<pre>
|
167
|
+
Configurator.custom_levels('Foo', 'Bar', :Baz)
|
168
|
+
</pre>
|
169
|
+
<p>
|
170
|
+
The method accepts strings or symbols. However, custom levels must have
|
171
|
+
names that are valid for Ruby constants. Also, custom levels should be set
|
172
|
+
before anything else is done with <a href="../../Log4r.html">Log4r</a>,
|
173
|
+
otherwise the default levels will be loaded.
|
174
|
+
</p>
|
175
|
+
<p>
|
176
|
+
You can set custom levels in XML. That’s covered in the following
|
177
|
+
section.
|
178
|
+
</p>
|
179
|
+
<h2>XML Configuration</h2>
|
180
|
+
<p>
|
181
|
+
If you have REXML, you can configure <a href="../../Log4r.html">Log4r</a>
|
182
|
+
with XML. To do this, first write an XML configuration (which you can learn
|
183
|
+
by studying this document and the examples provided in the distribution)
|
184
|
+
and then load up the XML from within your program as follows:
|
185
|
+
</p>
|
186
|
+
<pre>
|
187
|
+
Configurator.load_xml_file('/path/to/file.xml')
|
188
|
+
</pre>
|
189
|
+
<p>
|
190
|
+
The <a href="../../Log4r.html">Log4r</a> XML configuration system is very
|
191
|
+
flexible and powerful. In fact, it is somewhat preferable to configuring <a
|
192
|
+
href="../../Log4r.html">Log4r</a> in Ruby. In order to take full advantage
|
193
|
+
of this feature, there are several concepts one must know. They are covered
|
194
|
+
in the following three sections.
|
195
|
+
</p>
|
196
|
+
<h3>Concept: XML Directives</h3>
|
197
|
+
<p>
|
198
|
+
The expressive power of Ruby has enabled a feature I call <em>XML
|
199
|
+
directives</em>. An XML directive is a name-value pair belonging to some
|
200
|
+
element. It may be represented as an attribute (name=“value”)
|
201
|
+
of the element, or as a child (<name>value</name>) of the element.
|
202
|
+
Therefore, you are free to specify information about an object as either an
|
203
|
+
attribute or an element. An example should clarify:
|
204
|
+
</p>
|
205
|
+
<pre>
|
206
|
+
<object data="value"/>
|
207
|
+
</pre>
|
208
|
+
<p>
|
209
|
+
Is equivalent to:
|
210
|
+
</p>
|
211
|
+
<pre>
|
212
|
+
<object>
|
213
|
+
<data>value</data>
|
214
|
+
</object>
|
215
|
+
</pre>
|
216
|
+

You can assume this behavior except where noted elsewhere in the API.

<h3>Concept: XML Parameters</h3>
|
220
|
+
<p>
|
221
|
+
A scheme which I call <em>XML parameters</em> enables one to utilize the
|
222
|
+
XML configuratin system for custom Outputters and Formatters. This requires
|
223
|
+
<b>no</b> extra work on your part, so long as your objects are set up using
|
224
|
+
hash arguments and can decode string values. That is, once you’ve
|
225
|
+
written a custom Outputter, it is automatically configurable in XML without
|
226
|
+
having to write any extra code.
|
227
|
+
</p>
|
228
|
+
<p>
|
229
|
+
An XML parameter is analogous to a hash argument to some object’s
|
230
|
+
<tt>new</tt> method. Consider these hash arguments to FileOutputter:
|
231
|
+
</p>
|
232
|
+
<pre>
|
233
|
+
:filename => '/path/to/logs/my.log'
|
234
|
+
:trunc => 'true'
|
235
|
+
</pre>
|
236
|
+
<p>
|
237
|
+
We can specify them in XML like this:
|
238
|
+
</p>
|
239
|
+
<pre>
|
240
|
+
<outputter type="FileOutputter" trunc="true">
|
241
|
+
<filename>/path/to/logs/my.log</filename>
|
242
|
+
...
|
243
|
+
</pre>
|
244
|
+
<p>
|
245
|
+
The name of the element/attribute is just the name of the parameter. Note
|
246
|
+
that the input will be a string, thus it’s wise to convert the data
|
247
|
+
in from strings in any custom classes (to_i for integers, etc). Now
|
248
|
+
let’s suppose you have defined a custom Outputter named MyOutputter
|
249
|
+
with the following additional hash args:
|
250
|
+
</p>
|
251
|
+
<pre>
|
252
|
+
:myarg1 => 'foo'
|
253
|
+
:myarg2 => 123
|
254
|
+
</pre>
|
255
|
+
<p>
|
256
|
+
Automagically, you can configure your Outputter like so:
|
257
|
+
</p>
|
258
|
+
<pre>
|
259
|
+
<outputter type="MyOutputter" myarg2="123">
|
260
|
+
<myarg1>foo</myarg1>
|
261
|
+
...
|
262
|
+
</pre>
|
263
|
+
<p>
|
264
|
+
Isn’t that nice? <tt>:-)</tt>
|
265
|
+
</p>
|
266
|
+
<h3>Concept: Variable Substitution</h3>
|
267
|
+
<p>
|
268
|
+
To kill the need for preprocessors, Configurator provides a means of
|
269
|
+
variable substitution for XML parameters at runtime. If you specify
|
270
|
+
<tt>#{foo}</tt> in an XML parameter value, Configurator will replace it
|
271
|
+
with the value of ‘foo’ in its parameter hashtable. The primary
|
272
|
+
idea is that you can figure stuff out in your program, say the log path,
|
273
|
+
and relay that information to the XML while it’s being loaded.
|
274
|
+
Secondarily, it is a way to have aliases within an XML document.
|
275
|
+
</p>
|
276
|
+
<p>
|
277
|
+
There are two ways to tell Configurator about these variables. The first
|
278
|
+
method we’ll cover is done within a Ruby program with Configurator[].
|
279
|
+
</p>
|
280
|
+
<pre>
|
281
|
+
Configurator['logpath'] = '/path/to/logs'
|
282
|
+
</pre>
|
283
|
+
<p>
|
284
|
+
Thereafter, any occurence of <tt>#{logpath}</tt> in each and every XML
|
285
|
+
parameter will be substituted with ‘/path/to/logs’. For
|
286
|
+
example:
|
287
|
+
</p>
|
288
|
+
<pre>
|
289
|
+
<filename>#{logpath}/mylog.log</filename>
|
290
|
+
</pre>
|
291
|
+
<p>
|
292
|
+
Becomes,
|
293
|
+
</p>
|
294
|
+
<pre>
|
295
|
+
<filename>/path/to/logs/mylog.log</filename>
|
296
|
+
</pre>
|
297
|
+
<p>
|
298
|
+
Aside from Configurator[], another way to define XML parameter variables is
|
299
|
+
to define <tt>parameters</tt> under the <tt><pre_config></tt> element
|
300
|
+
of an XML configuration:
|
301
|
+
</p>
|
302
|
+
<pre>
|
303
|
+
<pre_config>
|
304
|
+
<parameter name="logpath" value="/path/to/logs'/>
|
305
|
+
<parameter name="other" value="somethingelse'/>
|
306
|
+
...
|
307
|
+
</pre_config>
|
308
|
+
</pre>
|
309
|
+
<p>
|
310
|
+
Alternatively,
|
311
|
+
</p>
|
312
|
+
<pre>
|
313
|
+
<pre_config>
|
314
|
+
<parameters>
|
315
|
+
<logpath>/path/to/logs</logpath>
|
316
|
+
<other>somethingelse</other>
|
317
|
+
...
|
318
|
+
</parameters>
|
319
|
+
...
|
320
|
+
</pre>
|
321
|
+
<p>
|
322
|
+
The end result is the same as using Configurator[]. However, this method is
|
323
|
+
not dynamic. Configurator[] should be used when you want to set variables
|
324
|
+
from within Ruby.
|
325
|
+
</p>
|
326
|
+
<h1>XML Grammar</h1>
|
327
|
+
<p>
|
328
|
+
And now, here’s the XML grammar we use to configure <a
|
329
|
+
href="../../Log4r.html">Log4r</a>.
|
330
|
+
</p>
|
331
|
+
<h2>Root Element</h2>
|
332
|
+
<p>
|
333
|
+
The root element is <tt><log4r_config></tt>. It can be embedded as a
|
334
|
+
node of any other element in an XML file. For instance:
|
335
|
+
</p>
|
336
|
+
<pre>
|
337
|
+
<my-xml-thing>
|
338
|
+
<customize-libraries>
|
339
|
+
<log4r_config>
|
340
|
+
<!-- log4r configuratin goes here -->
|
341
|
+
</log4r_config>
|
342
|
+
...
|
343
|
+
</pre>
|
344
|
+
<h2>Pre-config element</h2>
|
345
|
+
<p>
|
346
|
+
The pre_config element is a child of log4r_config and contains:
|
347
|
+
</p>
|
348
|
+
<ul>
|
349
|
+
<li>‘custom_levels’ element
|
350
|
+
|
351
|
+
</li>
|
352
|
+
<li>‘global’ element
|
353
|
+
|
354
|
+
</li>
|
355
|
+
<li>‘parameters’ element
|
356
|
+
|
357
|
+
</li>
|
358
|
+
<li>any number of ‘parameter’ elements
|
359
|
+
|
360
|
+
</li>
|
361
|
+
</ul>
|
362
|
+
<h3>Pre_config: Custom Levels</h3>
|
363
|
+
<p>
|
364
|
+
The custom_levels element is not an <em>XML directive</em> of pre_config.
|
365
|
+
It <b>must</b> be specified like this:
|
366
|
+
</p>
|
367
|
+
<pre>
|
368
|
+
<custom_levels>Foo, Bar, Baz</custom_levels>
|
369
|
+
</pre>
|
370
|
+
<p>
|
371
|
+
And <b>not</b> like this:
|
372
|
+
</p>
|
373
|
+
<pre>
|
374
|
+
<!-- NOT SUPPORTED -->
|
375
|
+
<custom_levels levels="Foo, Bar, Baz"/>
|
376
|
+
</pre>
|
377
|
+
<h3>Pre_config: Global Level</h3>
|
378
|
+
<pre>
|
379
|
+
<global level="DEBUG"/>
|
380
|
+
</pre>
|
381
|
+
<p>
|
382
|
+
or
|
383
|
+
</p>
|
384
|
+
<pre>
|
385
|
+
<global><level>DEBUG</level></global>
|
386
|
+
</pre>
|
387
|
+
<p>
|
388
|
+
Here, level is an XML directive of global.
|
389
|
+
</p>
|
390
|
+
<h3>Pre_config: Parameters</h3>
|
391
|
+
<p>
|
392
|
+
Parameters are variables that will be substituted later on. Please see the
|
393
|
+
<b>Concept: Variable Substitution</b> section above. Parameters are <em>XML
|
394
|
+
Directives</em>, which means they can be expressed using elements or
|
395
|
+
attributes. Here is an example:
|
396
|
+
</p>

<h1>EmailOutputter</h1>
|
131
|
+
<p>
|
132
|
+
This is an experimental class that sends a number of formatted log events
|
133
|
+
as an RFC 822 email. It should work fine if Net:SMTP doesn’t cause
|
134
|
+
any problems. Just in case, create a logger named ‘log4r’ and
|
135
|
+
give it an outputter to see the logging statements made by this class. If
|
136
|
+
it fails to send email, it will set itself to OFF and stop logging.
|
137
|
+
</p>
|
138
|
+
<p>
|
139
|
+
In order to use it,
|
140
|
+
</p>
|
141
|
+
<pre>
|
142
|
+
require 'log4r/outputter/emailoutputter'
|
143
|
+
</pre>
|
144
|
+
<h2>SMTP Configuration</h2>
|
145
|
+
<p>
|
146
|
+
All arguments to Net::SMTP.start are supported. Pass them as hash
|
147
|
+
parameters to <tt>new</tt>. The to field is specified as a comma-delimited
|
148
|
+
list of emails (padded with s* if desired).
|
149
|
+
</p>
|
150
|
+
<p>
|
151
|
+
An example:
|
152
|
+
</p>
|
153
|
+
<pre>
|
154
|
+
email_out = EmailOutputter.new 'email_out',
|
155
|
+
:server=>'localhost',
|
156
|
+
:port=>25,
|
157
|
+
:domain=>'somewhere.com',
|
158
|
+
:from=>'me@foo.bar',
|
159
|
+
:to=>'them@foo.bar, me@foo.bar, bozo@clown.net',
|
160
|
+
:subject=>'Log Report'
|
161
|
+
</pre>
|
162
|
+
<h2>LogEvent Buffer</h2>
|
163
|
+
<p>
|
164
|
+
EmailOutputter stores log messages in a buffer. When the buffer reaches a
|
165
|
+
certain number, the <tt>buffsize</tt>, it will send an email containing the
|
166
|
+
contents of the buffer. The default <tt>buffsize</tt> is 100. To set
|
167
|
+
<tt>buffsize</tt>,
|
168
|
+
</p>
|
169
|
+
<pre>
|
170
|
+
email_out.buffsize = 1000 # set the buffsize to 1000
|
171
|
+
</pre>
|
172
|
+
<h2>Flush To Send Email</h2>
|
173
|
+
<p>
|
174
|
+
Flushing an EmailOutputter will mail out all the remaining LogEvents. This
|
175
|
+
is convenient for systems that encapsulate the shutdown process. It’s
|
176
|
+
a good idea to do this for all outputters,
|
177
|
+
</p>
|
178
|
+
<pre>
|
179
|
+
Outputter.each_outputter {|o| o.flush}
|
180
|
+
</pre>
|
181
|
+
<p>
|
182
|
+
Alternatively, one can invoke flush on the outputter directly,
|
183
|
+
</p>
|
184
|
+
<pre>
|
185
|
+
email_out.flush
|
186
|
+
</pre>
|
187
|
+
<p>
|
188
|
+
It’s also a good idea to notify the recepient of the email that the
|
189
|
+
system is shutting down. Before flushing, log a message to the owner of
|
190
|
+
this outputter,
|
191
|
+
</p>
|
192
|
+
<pre>
|
193
|
+
log_with_email_out.info "The system is shutting down at #{Time.now}"
|
194
|
+
</pre>
|
195
|
+
<h2>Format When?</h2>
|
196
|
+
<p>
|
197
|
+
LogEvents may either be formatted as they come in or as the email is being
|
198
|
+
composed. To do the former, specify a value of <tt>true</tt> to the hash
|
199
|
+
parameter <tt>formatfirst</tt>. The default is to format during email
|
200
|
+
composition.
|
201
|
+
</p>
|
202
|
+
<pre>
|
203
|
+
email_out.formatfirst = true # format as soon as LogEvents are received
|
204
|
+
</pre>
|
205
|
+
<h2>Immediate Notification</h2>
|
206
|
+
<p>
|
207
|
+
EmailOutputter can be configured to flush and send the email whenever the
|
208
|
+
logger sees a certain log priority. Use the <tt>immediate_at</tt> hash
|
209
|
+
parameter and specify the levels as a comma-delimited list (like an XML
|
210
|
+
element). To trigger an email on FATAL and ERROR,
|
211
|
+
</p>
|
212
|
+
<pre>
|
213
|
+
email_out.immediate_at = "FATAL, ERROR"
|
214
|
+
</pre>
|
215
|
+
<h2>Example</h2>
|
216
|
+
<p>
|
217
|
+
A security logger sends email to several folks, buffering up to 25 log
|
218
|
+
events and sending immediates on CRIT and WARN
|
219
|
+
</p>
|
220
|
+
<pre>
|
221
|
+
EmailOutputter.new 'security',
|
222
|
+
:to => 'bob@secure.net, frank@secure.net',
|
223
|
+
:buffsize => 25,
|
224
|
+
:immediate_at => 'WARN, CRIT'
|
225
|
+
</pre>
|
226
|
+
<h2>XML Configuration</h2>
|
227
|
+
<p>
|
228
|
+
See <a href="../configurator_rb.html">log4r/configurator.rb</a> for
|
229
|
+
details. Here’s an example:
|
230
|
+
</p>
|
231
|
+
<pre>
|
232
|
+
<outputter name="security" type="EmailOutputter"
|
233
|
+
buffsize="25" level="ALL">
|
234
|
+
<immediate_at>WARN, CRIT</immediate_at>
|
235
|
+
<server>localhost</server>
|
236
|
+
<from>me@secure.net</from>
|
237
|
+
<to>
|
238
|
+
bob@secure.net, frank@secure.net
|
239
|
+
</to>
|
240
|
+
...
|
241
|
+
</outputter>
|
242
|
+
</pre>
|
243
|
+
<h2>To Do</h2>
|
244
|
+
<p>
|
245
|
+
This class could use some sophistication, in particular a means to compress
|
246
|
+
the logs, a way to set the subject dynamically (probably via a block
|
247
|
+
method), and a time trigger. When the time trigger is introduced, a
|
248
|
+
<tt>buffsize</tt> of 0 should mean ignore <tt>buffsize</tt> to determine
|
249
|
+
when to send the email.
