Hi, I think there is a little misunderstanding. Because I know András, I know that this tool is designed to create your syslog-ng configuration as easy as possible especially if this is the first time when you try to configure a syslog-ng or you just want to try how to configure a syslog-ng. So it does not say about automatism or text editors and not intended for enterprise environment. I'm sure that there are a lot of people who tried to write a custom syslog-ng config in a text editor and faced a lot of problems like missing semicolon, missing bracket, wrong placed options or they just had to browse the documentation to find out what options are available for the given source/destination and so on. Using this tool you can avoid it, because you will see the options, and it will generate a syntax right configuration that you can use as a basic configuration and extend it later. So please be more understanding. On 14/01/13 23:28, Anton Koldaev wrote:
Oh man. Who told you it's any good to use web interface when building a complex configuration? Everybody who needs automatisation for building syslog-ng conf files are already using Opscode-Chef/Puppet/other frameworks. Even using a good text editor it's much easier to build complex configurations for such software as Syslog-NG.
As a test engineer why don't you work on such useful utilities for syslog-ng similar to mysqltuner.pl <http://mysqltuner.pl> and mysql-tuner-primer for mysql?
No really, don't waste your time.
