# add syslog dispatcher dispatcher SYSLOG => 'syslog', accept => 'NOTICE-' , format_reason => 'IGNORE' , to_prio => [ 'ALERT-' => 'err' ]; # disable default dispatcher dispatcher close => 'stderr';
See SYNOPSIS in Log::Report::Dispatcher
This dispatchers produces output to syslog, based on the Sys::Syslog module (which will NOT be automatically installed for you).
The REASON for a message often uses names which are quite similar to the log-levels used by syslog. However: they have a different purpose. The REASON is used by the programmer to indicate the cause of the message: whether it was able to handle a certain situation. The syslog levels are there for the user's of the program (with syslog usually the system administrators). It is not unusual to see a "normal" error or mistake as a very serious situation in a production environment. So, you may wish to translate any message above reason MISTAKE into a LOG_CRIT.
The default translation table is list below. You can change the mapping using new(to_prio). See example in SYNOPSIS.
TRACE => LOG_DEBUG ERROR => LOG_ERR ASSERT => LOG_DEBUG FAULT => LOG_ERR INFO => LOG_INFO ALERT => LOG_ALERT NOTICE => LOG_NOTICE FAILURE => LOG_EMERG WARNING => LOG_WARNING PANIC => LOG_CRIT MISTAKE => LOG_WARNING
