NAME

epylog - Perl5 module for writing perl modules for epylog.

SYNOPSIS

  use epylog;
 
  # create a new epylog object
  my $du = new epylog;
 
  # initialize the object
  $du->init('modulename');
 
  # get a username from a userid
  $du->getuname(500);
 
  # get a hostname from an IP address
  $du->gethost('127.0.0.1');
 
  # find the system name in a standard syslog line
  $du->getsystem($syslogline);
 
  # get the value of an environment variable
  # first parameter is the name of the variable, second one is
  # the default value to return if the variable is undefined.
  $du->option('TMPDIR', '/tmp');
 
  # return the next available syslog line from the logs (LOGCAT)
  $du->nextline();
 
  # check if the logfile is EOF'd. Returns 0 if not yet.
  $du->islogeof();
 
  # add a string or an array of strings to the report (LOGREPORT)
  $du->pushrep('Report line');
 
  # add a syslog line entry to the list of analyzed and filtered 
  # lines (LOGFILTER)
  $du->pushfilt($syslog_line);
 
  # intelligently output some debug information.
  # first parameter is level, second parameter is the string to output.
  # level 0  -- critical errors, always output
  # level 1  -- standard epylog execution, without "--quiet"
  # level 2> -- additional levels of verbosity.
  $du->mlog(1, 'Processing data');
 
  # return how many lines were added to the filter file (LOGFILTER)
  $du->filtsize();
 
  # return how many lines were added to the report file (LOGREPORT)
  $du->repsize();
 
  # make a pretty report header.
  $du->mkrephdr('NOTICED REBOOTS');
 
  # call this at the end of your module! It closes the filehandles and
  # writes out the report.
  $du->finalize();
