NAME

       tlog-rec.conf - tlog-rec configuration file

DESCRIPTION

       tlog-rec.conf  is  a  JSON-format  configuration  file for tlog-rec program.  Contrary to the strict JSON
       specification, both C and C++ style comments are allowed in the file.

       The file must contain a single JSON object with the objects and fields described below.   Almost  all  of
       them  are  optional  and  assume  a  default  value.  However, those that do require a value can still be
       omitted and specified to tlog-rec in other ways: through environment variables or command line.

OBJECTS AND FIELDS

   Root object
       latency (integer)
              The number of seconds to cache captured data for before logging.  The encoded data which does  not
              reach payload size stays in memory and is not logged until this number of seconds elapses.

              Minimum: 1
              Default: 10

       payload (integer)
              The  maximum  encoded  data  (payload)  size  per message, bytes.  As soon as payload exceeds this
              number of bytes, it is formatted into a message and logged.

              Minimum: 32
              Default: 2048

       log (object)
              Logged data set object, see below.

       limit (object)
              Logging limit object, see below.

       file (object)
              File writer object, see below.

       syslog (object)
              Syslog writer object, see below.

              Journal writer object, see below.

       writer (string)
              The type of "log writer" to use for logging. The writer needs to be configured using its dedicated
              parameters.

              One of: "journal", "syslog", "file"
              Default: "file"

   log - Logged data set object
       input (boolean)
              If true, user input is logged.

              Default: false

       output (boolean)
              If true, terminal output is logged.

              Default: true

       window (boolean)
              If true, terminal window size changes are logged.

              Default: true

   limit - Logging limit object
       rate (integer)
              The maximum rate messages could be logged at, bytes/sec.

              Minimum: 0
              Default: 16384

       burst (integer)
              The  number  of  bytes  by which logged messages are allowed to exceed the rate limit momentarily,
              i.e. "burstiness".

              Minimum: 0
              Default: 32768

       action (string)
              The logging limit action.  If set to "pass" no logging limits will be applied.  If set to "delay",
              logging will be throttled.  If set to "drop", messages exceeding limits will be dropped.

              One of: "pass", "delay", "drop"
              Default: "pass"

   file - File writer object
       path (string)
              The "file" writer log file path.

              No default.

   syslog - Syslog writer object
       facility (string)
              The syslog facility "syslog" writer should use for messages.

              One  of:  "auth",  "authpriv",  "cron",  "daemon",  "ftp",  "kern",  "local0", "local1", "local2",
              "local3", "local4", "local5", "local6", "local7", "lpr", "mail", "news", "syslog", "user", "uucp"
              Default: "authpriv"

       priority (string)
              The syslog priority "syslog" writer should use for messages.

              One of: "emerg", "alert", "crit", "err", "warning", "notice", "info", "debug"
              Default: "info"

   journal - Journal writer object
       priority (string)
              The syslog-style priority "journal" writer should use for messages.

              One of: "emerg", "alert", "crit", "err", "warning", "notice", "info", "debug"
              Default: "info"

       augment (boolean)
              If true, the "journal" writer copies  the  following  JSON  fields  to  Journal  fields:  user  ->
              TLOG_USER, session -> TLOG_SESSION, rec -> TLOG_REC, and id -> TLOG_ID.

              Default: true

EXAMPLES

       A configuration specifying only a reduced latency:

              {
                  "latency": 3
              }

       A configuration enabling logging user input:

              {
                  "log": {
                      "input": true
                  }
              }

       A configuration specifying logging to a file:

              {
                  "writer": "file"
                  "file" : {
                      "path": "/var/log/tlog-rec.log"
                  }
              }
