.TH wLog 13 "June 2016" Version "1.0" | ||
.SH NAME | ||
wLog \- WinPR logging facility | ||
|
||
.SH DESCRIPTION | ||
wLog is a configurable and flexible logging system used throughout WinPR and | ||
FreeRDP. | ||
|
||
The primary concept is to have a hierarchy of loggers that can be be configured | ||
independently. | ||
|
||
.SH Appenders | ||
|
||
WLog uses different appenders that define where the log output should be written | ||
to. If the application doesn't explicitly configure the appenders the below | ||
described variable WLOG_APPENDER can be used to choose one appender. | ||
|
||
The following kind of appenders are available: | ||
|
||
.IP Binary | ||
Write the log data into a binary format file. | ||
|
||
.IP Console | ||
The console appender writes to the console. Depending of the operating system | ||
the application runs on, the output might be handled differently. For example | ||
on android log print would be used. | ||
|
||
.IP File | ||
The file appender writes the textual output to a file. | ||
|
||
.IP Udp | ||
This appender sends the logging messages to a pre-defined remote host via UDP. | ||
|
||
If no target is set the default one 127.0.0.1:20000 is used. To receive the | ||
log messages one can use netcat. To receive the default target the following | ||
command can be used: | ||
nc -u 127.0.0.1 -p 20000 -l | ||
.IP Syslog | ||
Use syslog for outputting the debug messages. | ||
.IP Journald | ||
This appender outputs messages to journald. | ||
|
||
.SH Levels | ||
The WLog are complementary, the higher level always includes the lower ones. | ||
The level list below is top down. Top the highest level. | ||
|
||
.IP TRACE | ||
print everything including packets dumps | ||
.IP DEBUG | ||
debug messages | ||
.IP INFO | ||
general informations | ||
.IP WARN | ||
warnings | ||
.IP ERROR | ||
errors | ||
.IP FATAL | ||
fatal problems | ||
.IP OFF | ||
completely disable the wlog output | ||
|
||
.SH Formats | ||
The format a logger prints has the following possible options: | ||
|
||
.IP lv | ||
log level | ||
.IP mn | ||
module name | ||
.IP fl | ||
file name | ||
.IP fn | ||
function | ||
.IP ln | ||
line number | ||
.IP pid | ||
process id | ||
.IP tid | ||
thread id | ||
.IP yr | ||
year | ||
.IP mo | ||
month | ||
.IP dw | ||
day of week | ||
.IP hr | ||
hour | ||
.IP mi | ||
minute | ||
.IP se | ||
second | ||
.IP ml | ||
millisecond | ||
.PP | ||
A maximum of 16 options can be used per format string. | ||
|
||
An example that generally sets the WLOG_PREFIX for xfreerdp would look like: | ||
WLOG_PREFIX="pid=%pid:tid=%tid:fn=%fn -" xfreerdp /v:xxx | ||
|
||
|
||
.SH ENVIRONMENT | ||
.IP WLOG_APPENDER | ||
The kind of appender, the accepted values are: CONSOLE, FILE, BINARY, SYSLOG, JOURNALD or UDP | ||
|
||
.IP WLOG_PREFIX | ||
configure the prefix used for outputting the message (see Format for more details and examples) | ||
|
||
.IP WLOG_LEVEL | ||
the level to output messages for | ||
|
||
.IP WLOG_FILTER | ||
sets a filter for WLog messages. Only the filtered messages are | ||
printed. The format of the filter is a serie of \<logger name\>:\<level\> separated by | ||
comas | ||
|
||
example: WLOG_FILTER=core.channel:DEBUG,dummy:TRACE | ||
will display debug messages for the core.channel logger and trace level for the dummy logger | ||
|
||
.IP WLOG_FILEAPPENDER_OUTPUT_FILE_PATH | ||
When using the file appender it may contains the output log file's path | ||
|
||
.IP WLOG_FILEAPPENDER_OUTPUT_FILE_NAME | ||
When using the file appender it may contains the output log file's name | ||
|
||
.IP WLOG_JOURNALD_ID | ||
When using the systemd journal appender, this variable contains the id used with | ||
the journal (by default the executable's name) | ||
|
||
.IP WLOG_UDP_TARGET | ||
target to use for the UDP appender in the format | ||
.B host:port | ||
|
