Log::Handler::Output::Socket - Send messages to a socket.
use Log::Handler::Output::Socket; my $sock = Log::Handler::Output::Socket->new( peeraddr => "127.0.0.1", peerport => 44444, proto => "tcp", timeout => 10 ); $sock->log(message => $message);
With this module it's possible to send messages over the network.
Call new() to create a new Log::Handler::Output::Socket object.
new()
The following options are possible:
The address of the server.
The port to connect to.
The protocol you wish to use. Default is TCP.
The timeout to send message. The default is 5 seconds.
With this option you can enable or disable a persistent connection and re-connect if the connection was lost.
Both options are set to 1 on default.
Do you like to dump the message? If you enable this option then all messages will be dumped with Data::Dumper.
Data::Dumper
Do you want to use another dumper as Data::Dumper? You can do the following as example:
use Convert::Bencode_XS; dumper => sub { Convert::Bencode_XS::bencode($_[0]) } # or maybe use JSON::PC; dumper => sub { JSON::PC::convert($_[0]) }
This option is only useful if you want to pass your own arguments to IO::Socket::INET and don't want use peeraddr and peerhost.
IO::Socket::INET
peeraddr
peerhost
Example:
connect => { PerrAddr => "127.0.0.1", PeerPort => 44444, LocalPort => 44445 }
This options are passed to IO::Socket::INET.
Call log() if you want to send a message over the socket.
log()
$sock->log("message");
Connect to the socket.
Disconnect from socket.
Validate a configuration.
Reload with a new configuration.
This function returns the last error message.
Carp Params::Validate; IO::Socket::INET; Data::Dumper;
