Systemd.Journal

Contents

Synopsis

Writing to the journal

sendMessage :: Text -> IO ()

Send a message to the systemd journal.

 sendMessage t == sendJournalFields (message t)

sendMessageWith :: Text -> JournalFields -> IO ()

Send a message and supply extra fields.

Note: The MESSAGE field will be replaced with the first parameter to this function. If you don't want this, use sendJournalFields

sendJournalFields :: JournalFields -> IO ()

Send an exact set of fields to the systemd journal.

type JournalFields = HashMap JournalField ByteString

A structured object of all the fields in an entry in the journal. You generally don't construct this yourself, but you use the monoid instance and smart constructors below.

For example,

 sendJournalFields (message "Oh god, it burns!" <> priority Emergency)

Standard systemd journal fields

message :: Text -> JournalFields

The human readable message string for this entry. This is supposed to be the primary text shown to the user. It is usually not translated (but might be in some cases), and is not supposed to be parsed for meta data.

messageId :: UUID -> JournalFields

A 128bit message identifier ID for recognizing certain message types, if this is desirable. Developers can generate a new ID for this purpose with journalctl --new-id.

priority :: Priority -> JournalFields

A priority value compatible with syslog's priority concept.

data Priority

Log messages are prioritized.

Constructors

Emergency

system is unusable

Alert

action must be taken immediately

Critical

critical conditions

Error

error conditions

Warning

warning conditions

Notice

normal but significant condition

Info

informational

Debug

debug-level messages

codeFile :: FilePath -> JournalFields

The source code file generating this message.

codeLine :: Int -> JournalFields

The source code line number generating this message.

codeFunc :: Text -> JournalFields

The source code function name generating this message.

errno :: Int -> JournalFields

The low-level Unix error number causing this entry, if any. Contains the numeric value of errno(3).

syslogFacility :: Facility -> JournalFields

Syslog compatibility field.

syslogIdentifier :: Text -> JournalFields

Syslog compatibility field.

syslogPid :: CPid -> JournalFields

Syslog compatibility field.

Custom journal fields

mkJournalField :: Text -> JournalField

Construct a JournalField by converting to uppercase, as required by the journal.

Reading the journal

openJournal

Arguments

:: MonadSafe m 
=> [JournalFlag]

A list of flags taken under logical disjunction (or) to specify which journal files to open.

-> Start

Where to begin reading journal entries from.

-> Maybe Filter

An optional filter to apply the journal. Only entries satisfying the filter will be emitted.

-> Producer' JournalEntry m () 

Opens the journal for reading, optionally filtering the journal entries. Filters are defined as arbitrary binary expression trees, which are then rewritten to be in conjunctive normal form before filtering with systemd to comply with systemd's rule system.

data Start

Where to begin reading the journal from.

Constructors

FromStart

Begin reading from the start of the journal.

FromEnd

Begin reading from the end of the journal.

FromCursor JournalEntryCursor

From a JournalEntryCursor.

data JournalEntry

An entry that has been read from the systemd journal.

journalEntryFields :: JournalEntry -> JournalFields

A map of each JournalField to its value.

journalEntryCursor :: JournalEntry -> JournalEntryCursor

A JournalCursor can be used as marker into the journal stream. This can be used to re-open the journal at a specific point in the future, and JournalCursors can be serialized to disk.

data JournalFlag

Flags to specify which journal entries to read.

Constructors

LocalOnly

Only journal files generated on the local machine will be opened.

RuntimeOnly

Only volatile journal files will be opened, excluding those which are stored on persistent storage.

SystemOnly

Only journal files of system services and the kernel (in opposition to user session processes) will be opened.

data Filter

A logical expression to filter journal entries when reading the journal.

Constructors

Match JournalField ByteString

A binary exact match on a given JournalField.

And Filter Filter

Logical conjunction of two filters. Will only show journal entries that satisfy both conditions.

Or Filter Filter

Logical disjunction of two filters. Will show journal entries that satisfy either condition.
