SD_JOURNAL_STREAM_FD(3) sd_journal_stream_fd SD_JOURNAL_STREAM_FD(3)
sd_journal_stream_fd - Create log stream file descriptor to the
journal
#include <systemd/sd-journal.h>
int sd_journal_stream_fd(const char *identifier, int priority,
int level_prefix);
sd_journal_stream_fd() may be used to create a log stream file
descriptor. Log messages written to this file descriptor as simple
newline-separated text strings are written to the journal. This file
descriptor can be used internally by applications or be made standard
output or standard error of other processes executed.
sd_journal_stream_fd() takes a short program identifier string as
first argument, which will be written to the journal as
_SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER= field for each log entry (see
systemd.journal-fields(7) for more information). The second argument
shall be the default priority level for all messages. The priority
level is one of LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR, LOG_WARNING,
LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG, as defined in syslog.h, see
syslog(3) for details. The third argument is a boolean: if true
kernel-style log level prefixes (such as SD_WARNING) are interpreted,
see sd-daemon(3) for more information.
It is recommended that applications log UTF-8 messages only with this
API, but this is not enforced.
The call returns a valid write-only file descriptor on success or a
negative errno-style error code.
Function sd_journal_stream_fd() is thread-safe and may be called from
multiple threads. All calls will return the same file descriptor,
although temporarily multiple file descriptors may be open.
The sd_journal_stream_fd() interface is available as a shared
library, which can be compiled and linked to with the
libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.
Creating a log stream suitable for fprintf(3):
#include <syslog.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <systemd/sd-journal.h>
#include <systemd/sd-daemon.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
int fd;
FILE *log;
fd = sd_journal_stream_fd("test", LOG_INFO, 1);
if (fd < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to create stream fd: %s\n", strerror(-fd));
return 1;
}
log = fdopen(fd, "w");
if (!log) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to create file object: %m\n");
close(fd);
return 1;
}
fprintf(log, "Hello World!\n");
fprintf(log, SD_WARNING "This is a warning!\n");
fclose(log);
return 0;
}
