"syslog" --- Unix syslog 函式庫例程
***********************************

======================================================================

This module provides an interface to the Unix "syslog" library
routines. Refer to the Unix manual pages for a detailed description of
the "syslog" facility.

Availability: Unix, not Emscripten, not WASI.

This module wraps the system "syslog" family of routines.  A pure
Python library that can speak to a syslog server is available in the
"logging.handlers" module as "SysLogHandler".

該模組定義了以下函式：

syslog.syslog(message)
syslog.syslog(priority, message)

   Send the string *message* to the system logger.  A trailing newline
   is added if necessary.  Each message is tagged with a priority
   composed of a *facility* and a *level*.  The optional *priority*
   argument, which defaults to "LOG_INFO", determines the message
   priority.  If the facility is not encoded in *priority* using
   logical-or ("LOG_INFO | LOG_USER"), the value given in the
   "openlog()" call is used.

   If "openlog()" has not been called prior to the call to "syslog()",
   "openlog()" will be called with no arguments.

   引發一個附帶引數 "priority"、"message" 的稽核事件 "syslog.syslog"。

   在 3.2 版的變更: In previous versions, "openlog()" would not be
   called automatically if it wasn't called prior to the call to
   "syslog()", deferring to the syslog implementation to call
   "openlog()".

   在 3.12 版的變更: This function is restricted in subinterpreters.
   (Only code that runs in multiple interpreters is affected and the
   restriction is not relevant for most users.) "openlog()" must be
   called in the main interpreter before "syslog()" may be used in a
   subinterpreter.  Otherwise it will raise "RuntimeError".

syslog.openlog([ident[, logoption[, facility]]])

   Logging options of subsequent "syslog()" calls can be set by
   calling "openlog()".  "syslog()" will call "openlog()" with no
   arguments if the log is not currently open.

   The optional *ident* keyword argument is a string which is
   prepended to every message, and defaults to "sys.argv[0]" with
   leading path components stripped.  The optional *logoption* keyword
   argument (default is 0) is a bit field -- see below for possible
   values to combine.  The optional *facility* keyword argument
   (default is "LOG_USER") sets the default facility for messages
   which do not have a facility explicitly encoded.

   引發一個附帶引數 "ident"、"logoption"、"facility" 的稽核事件
   "syslog.openlog"。

   在 3.2 版的變更: In previous versions, keyword arguments were not
   allowed, and *ident* was required.

   在 3.12 版的變更: This function is restricted in subinterpreters.
   (Only code that runs in multiple interpreters is affected and the
   restriction is not relevant for most users.) This may only be
   called in the main interpreter. It will raise "RuntimeError" if
   called in a subinterpreter.

syslog.closelog()

   Reset the syslog module values and call the system library
   "closelog()".

   This causes the module to behave as it does when initially
   imported.  For example, "openlog()" will be called on the first
   "syslog()" call (if "openlog()" hasn't already been called), and
   *ident* and other "openlog()" parameters are reset to defaults.

   引發一個不附帶引數的稽核事件 "syslog.closelog"。

   在 3.12 版的變更: This function is restricted in subinterpreters.
   (Only code that runs in multiple interpreters is affected and the
   restriction is not relevant for most users.) This may only be
   called in the main interpreter. It will raise "RuntimeError" if
   called in a subinterpreter.

syslog.setlogmask(maskpri)

   Set the priority mask to *maskpri* and return the previous mask
   value.  Calls to "syslog()" with a priority level not set in
   *maskpri* are ignored. The default is to log all priorities.  The
   function "LOG_MASK(pri)" calculates the mask for the individual
   priority *pri*.  The function "LOG_UPTO(pri)" calculates the mask
   for all priorities up to and including *pri*.

   引發一個附帶引數 "maskpri" 的稽核事件 "syslog.setlogmask"。

The module defines the following constants:

Priority levels (high to low):
   "LOG_EMERG", "LOG_ALERT", "LOG_CRIT", "LOG_ERR", "LOG_WARNING",
   "LOG_NOTICE", "LOG_INFO", "LOG_DEBUG".

Facilities:
   "LOG_KERN", "LOG_USER", "LOG_MAIL", "LOG_DAEMON", "LOG_AUTH",
   "LOG_LPR", "LOG_NEWS", "LOG_UUCP", "LOG_CRON", "LOG_SYSLOG",
   "LOG_LOCAL0" to "LOG_LOCAL7", and, if defined in "<syslog.h>",
   "LOG_AUTHPRIV".

Log options:
   "LOG_PID", "LOG_CONS", "LOG_NDELAY", and, if defined in
   "<syslog.h>", "LOG_ODELAY", "LOG_NOWAIT", and "LOG_PERROR".


範例

簡單範例
--------

一組簡單範例：

   import syslog

   syslog.syslog('Processing started')
   if error:
       syslog.syslog(syslog.LOG_ERR, 'Processing started')

An example of setting some log options, these would include the
process ID in logged messages, and write the messages to the
destination facility used for mail logging:

   syslog.openlog(logoption=syslog.LOG_PID, facility=syslog.LOG_MAIL)
   syslog.syslog('E-mail processing initiated...')
