Log::Syslog::ConstantsUser Contributed Perl DocumentaLog::Syslog::Constants(3)

NAME
       Log::Syslog::Constants -	Perl extension containing syslog priority
       constants as defined in RFC3164.

SYNOPSIS
	 use Log::Syslog::Constants ':all';

	 @severities = (
	   LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR, LOG_WARNING, LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO,
	   LOG_DEBUG
	 );

	 @facilities = (
	   LOG_KERN, LOG_USER, LOG_MAIL, LOG_DAEMON, LOG_AUTH, LOG_SYSLOG, LOG_LPR,
	   LOG_NEWS, LOG_UUCP, LOG_CRON, LOG_AUTHPRIV, LOG_FTP,	LOG_LOCAL0,
	   LOG_LOCAL1, LOG_LOCAL2, LOG_LOCAL3, LOG_LOCAL4, LOG_LOCAL5, LOG_LOCAL6,
	   LOG_LOCAL7
	 );

	 $info_constant	= get_severity('INFO');
	 $local0_constant = get_facility('local0');

DESCRIPTION
       Syslog messages--as standardized	in RFC3164--embed a priority number
       (the PRI	part) which is composed	of a severity and a facility value.
       The constants which encode these	values are specified in	section	4.1.1,
       and are made available by this module. For instance, the	exportable
       LOG_FTP constant	has a value of 11, the value for the FTP facility.

EXPORTS
       Nothing is exported by default. You may optionally import individual
       constants and functions or groups of them:

	 use Log::Syslog::Constants qw(:severities); # LOG_CRIT, LOG_DEBUG, etc
	 use Log::Syslog::Constants qw(:facilities); # LOG_CRON, LOG_LOCAL3, etc
	 use Log::Syslog::Constants qw(:functions); # get_facility, get_severity
	 use Log::Syslog::Constants qw(:all); #	all of the above

FUNCTIONS
       o   get_facility($facility_string)

       o   get_severity($severity_string)

	   These functions look	up a constant value by name, e.g.
	   "get_severity('info') == LOG_INFO".
