Logging to syslog from Your Script Problem You’d like your script to be able to log to syslog. Solution Use logger, Netcat, or bash’s built-in network redirection features. logger is installed by default on most systems and is an easy way to send messages to the local syslog service. However, it does not send syslog to remote hosts by itself. If you need to do that, you can use bash or Netcat. $ logger -p local0.notice -t ${0##*/}[$$] test message Netcat is known as the “TCP/IP Swiss Army knife” and is usually not installed by default. It may also be prohibited as a hacking tool by some security policies, though bash’s net-redirection features do pretty much the same thing. See the discussion in Using bash Net-Redirection for details on the <133>${0##*/}[$$] part. # Netcat $ echo "<133>${0##*/}[$$]: Test syslog message from Netcat" | nc -w1 -u loghost 514 # bash $ echo "<133>${0##*/}[$$]: Test syslog message from bash" > /dev/udp/loghost.example.com/514
Adding this line to the top of your bash script will cause anything printed on stdout and stderr to be sent to the syslog1, as well as being echoed back to the original shell’s stderr.
It’s certainly desirable to have your script output sent to a predictable location, so how does this work?
The whole line again:
exec 1> >(logger -s -t $(basename $0)) 2>&1
exec
is a bash builtin, so to see what it does, we run help exec
:
exec: exec [-cl] [-a name] [command [args ...]] [redirection ...] Replace the shell with the given command. Execute COMMAND, replacing this shell with the specified program. ARGUMENTS become the arguments to COMMAND. If COMMAND is not specified, any redirections take effect in the current shell.
In this case exec
is being used without COMMAND
– this line is redirecting I/O for the current shell. So what do the redirections do? To simplify things let’s clear out the nested commands and just look at the redirection:
exec 1> >(some-command) 2>&1
This is pretty simple redirection, obscured by that charming and easily google-able bash syntax that we all know and love bluff and tolerate. There are two redirections, the first being:
1> >(some-command)
This redirects file descriptor 1 (stdout) to the location >(some-command)
. That’s not a normal filename, though: it’s a process substitution, which is a non-POSIX bash feature2. >(some-command)
returns a file descriptor that some-command
will use as its stdin. This is exactly the same as piping our script’s stdout into some-command
.
Then we redirect file descriptor 2 (stderr) to the same location as file descriptor 1:
2>&1
In summary, we’ve redirected both stdout and stderr for our script to the same place: the stdin for another process, which is a command running in the background. In effect, this is the same as running the script at the command line like so:
$ ./some-script 2>&1 | some-command
In this case, some-command
is:
logger -s -t $(basename $0)
From the logger(1)
manpage we can see that this writes entries to syslog, tagged (-t
) with the filename of our script ($(basename $0)
) and echoing them to standard error (-s
).
So the full line takes both stdout and stderr from our script, and redirects them to the logger
command, which sends them to the syslog and echoes them back to stderr.
Let’s write a very simple test script, logger_test
:
#!/bin/bash
exec 1> >(logger -s -t $(basename $0)) 2>&1
echo "writing to stdout"
echo "writing to stderr" >&2
When we run this on a Ubuntu system we see the following:
$ ./logger_test logger_test: writing to stdout logger_test: writing to stderr
We can also inspect the syslog (you may need root privileges):
$ grep logger_test /var/log/syslog Sep 9 15:39:37 my-machine logger_test: writing to stdout Sep 9 15:39:37 my-machine logger_test: writing to stderr
Great! We’ve got our output in the syslog and in our own console. What’s the downside?
Because we’re redirecting both stdout and stderr to a logger
process, and getting them back on stderr, we can no longer distinguish between normal and error output, either in the syslog or in our terminal.
We could address this by using two background processes:
#!/bin/bash
exec 1> >(logger -s -t $(basename $0) 2>&1)
exec 2> >(logger -s -t $(basename $0))
echo "writing to stdout"
echo "writing to stderr" >&2
Here we send stdout to a separate logger
process, but redirect that process’s stderr back to stdout. We can now distinguish between stderr and stdout in our terminal, but we run into a second problem…
If we run our new script several times we are very likely to see the following:
$ ./logger_test logger_test: writing to stderr logger_test: writing to stdout
This is because two separate background processes are handling our stdout and stderr messages, and there’s no guarantee that they’ll write their output in order.
We’re caught: if we’re getting our terminal output from background processes, we can either use one background process, and receive ordered messages but lose the ability to distinguish stdout and stderr; or we can use separate background processes, and distinguish between stdout and stderr but lose guaranteed message ordering.
Ideally we would like the following:
We’ve established that we can’t have all of this by simply redirecting our output to background processes. An alternative approach would be to use helper functions for logging:
#!/bin/bash
readonly SCRIPT_NAME=$(basename $0)
log() {
echo "$@"
logger -p user.notice -t $SCRIPT_NAME "$@"
}
err() {
echo "$@" >&2
logger -p user.error -t $SCRIPT_NAME "$@"
}
log "writing to stdout"
err "writing to stderr"
This way we get our normal terminal output via the shell’s own stdout and stderr, but we can still send messages to syslog and tag them with appropriate priorities (we can also fancy up our terminal output with timestamps and colours if we want to).
The downside is that we have to explicitly log everything we want sent to syslog. If we want the output of a command our script runs to be sent to syslog, then we have to capture that output and log it, too.
