Monolog syslog3164 handler

Getting started

$ composer require dalee/monolog-syslog3164

Example

use Monolog\Logger;
use Dalee\Monolog\Handler\Syslog3164Handler;

$logger = new Logger('main');
$handler = new Syslog3164Handler('127.0.0.1', 9010, Syslog3164Handler::FACILITY_UUCP);
$handler->setTag('switchman')->setHostname('app.local');
$logger->pushHandler($handler);
$logger->debug('Error occurred', [
	'system' => 'customer-service',
	'kind' => 'error',
	'payload' => [
		'code' => 5194,
		'message' => 'Error sending report'
	]
]);

By default Syslog3164Handler is constructed with 127.0.0.1:514, debug level and bubbling. The default facility is user.

The output for above is:

<15>Oct  4 23:10:59 app.local php: Error occurred {"system":"customer-service","kind":"error","payload":{"code":5194,"message":"Error sending report"}}

Notices

According to RFC3164, the total length of the packet must be 1024 or less. In most cases that's not what you want so it's disabled by default but you can use setStrictSize to turn it on.

The code consists of a single really simple file so there is no separated documentation.
