Hi, This is an email where I tried to describe what I had in mind with the original idea: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.syslog-ng/17449 It would be great to have this implemented. Cheers, Bazsi -- Bazsi On Fri, May 20, 2016 at 2:10 PM, Noémi Ványi <sitbackandwait@gmail.com> wrote:
Hello!
A new feature is going to be developed, as a part of GSOC, so syslog-ng can be started as a command line tool.
What could the CLI do for you?
- pipelines of complex filtering, rewriting could be tested more easily, thus configuration could become simpler than before - existing logs could be transformed
The format of the new command line options is not decided yet. So your help and insight is needed to design the interface and the usage of the tool that you and other people around the world would use. :)
If you are intereted in contributing to the CLI, thus contributing to the syslog-ng community, please send an email to this thread. :) I am available at gitter for further info. :)
Regards kvch
